I booked Via AA from JFK-BKK with JAL. Anyway to add on to continue to CNX. I called AA and they said there would be change fee  is that true or should I just Huca?

Will cost you a change fee, but no OW partner flies BKK-CNX so you won't be able to add it even if you paid the change fee.

Just book a cheap paid ticket for BKK-CNX, it shouldn't cost you more than $50, or use 5k JAL.

Does JAL allow booking EK and AA on the same award?

BKK to NYC/LAX. Options for JAL, AA, and Cathay. What to choose Business and first. (Ok, Cathay is out based on above, but what about AA? Don't they have an updated first or something)?

JAL Website.

Link?

How would they make you prove that the 3rd party isn't a relative?

They reserve the right to ask for proofs and I have read of one or two reports where people were being asked for those.

They’ll probably accept a bunch of stuff but a marriage license or tax return documents are examples given for a spouse in general.

I don't know what happens in general but if they were to ask I am sure they will let you know what to send them. Especially considering that those are specifically allowed as per their chart.
