Business Class Maximizer!! That is a boring challenge. How about maximizing a 1-World First Class ticket in which no flight over 2000 miles is on anything other that a suite. Or how about a trip that has NO flight on anything other than a Flat Bed. I would imagine from your cost your are starting from STO on a 4Cont. Biz Class ticket so my guess is that it looks something like:

ARN - LHR - MCT - LHR - LAX - GRU - SCL - CCS - SCL - GRU - DFW - ANC - DFW - ANC - DFW - ANC - DFW - NRT - HKG - DEL - HKG - SIN - LHR - ARN

that gives a total of: 74,000 or so

LAX - GRU is only valid for mid-august and DFW - ANC is only good until September.

This would also give you ExecPlat on AA, however you would face many obstacles including long layovers in many places.
