Can I suggest you try using your last segment somewhere in the US? it's going to waste for no reason!

For example:
8. New York (JFK) - xLAX - Santiago (SCL)

Try this
JFK-xSJU-xLAX-SCL
JFK-xMIA-xLAX-SCL

Try adding something inbetween.
JFK-SJU-LAX will be all booked in D business though
JFK-MIA this will be domestic F
MIA-LAX has the 777 service so you'll get 3 class F (of course not meal)
I'm an idiot, I forgot to include my initial RUH-AMM segment as it was added toward the end of my planning, when I was trying to force an AA booking online. I ended up not needing it as I booked through the RTW desk, but because I looked at a bunch of travel possibilities after thinking I would need to do this, I decided I wanted to go to Jordan and do land travel around the area.

At one point my itinerary included the MIA-LAX 772 flight, it's a pretty good tag-on.
