agree with wandering Fred on the oRD-YYZ dropping the total mileage down below 22K
I've done about 6 of the SYD-HKG-YYZ trips in the last year. For me, I'd rather spend the extra cash and do an FCIRC22 rather than a DCIRC26 any day, especially for the HKG-ORD/YYZ segments. For me it was more important to return to SYD at the right time rather than get to YYZ (as you arrive at night anyways regardless of the route).
I will say that Fiona (CX CSD) on the HKG-YYZ route is one of the best I've come across in all my years of travel.
