why so much?
It's usually a function of the base cost of the ticket. So the more expensive the tik, the higher the infant fee. (This is the system used on many airlines. For example, US charges 10%. Unsure of UA's exact policy.)

i dont recall hkg having too many fakes like there is at pek or bkk. i was told it was against the law there and they are strict about it
fakes are super common! i hope you didnt get your info from the vendor selling you those rolex watches at a "special price" lol...
saw fakes everywhere bought like big 10 brand name watches for 1$ each.. i figure they last about a month so it works for me.. :)
fake ipods are super common too!

HKG is not a place to go buy fakes. Need to venture into Shenzehn to get the good/cheap ones

I wonder if I cancel the flight that deducted the 210k miles, and just keep the others that were 'free' if that would cause any issues.
