What is the MPM and 125% of that MPM ?? The routing discussed above via BKK and HKG and ICN was 11859 ?? via SIN ans ICN looks like 12,625 ?? too much for 125%?
Can you get two one way tickets priced out CMB-HNL and HNL-CMB without it being "one" ticket ??

Getting two one way ticket will make the second ticket, HNL-CMB priced as ex-HNL. You don't want that!

SFO-HNL will be the last segment for a one-way. You don't really care if they cancel it.

Really no need to drop HNL as there is a BKK-SFO/LAX/YVR OZ fare for about $800 all in.... and no need to start in CMB

Would this fare allow BKK-SIN-ICN on SQ then ICN-LAX on OZ ??
Stopovers allowed or not ?
Is there an ex-BKK OZ fare to HNL that would allow BKK-SIN-ICN-LAX/SFO-HNL ?? What is MPM if available ?

, bought such an OZ-fare ex BKK to SFO last October and will start my trip next month (February). My scheduled routing is BKK-(TG)-SIN-(SQ)-ICN-(OZ)-SFO-(OZ)-ICN-(SQ)-SIN-(SQ)-BKK. Fare is 1604 USD + ca. 200 USD tax. This routing takes nearly full advantage of the MPM (9504) as it comes to 9411 miles 
The same is certainly possible for LAX.

In general, the HNL-fare is quite tempting. Especially ex CMB. Should have thought about it sooner
