Dear OW Geniuses,

I am organizing another RTW beginning in March and need your assistance if this is doable on an OWE ticket. Here are the segments that I need to pass through or already know: ZRH-LHR-SFO-SEA-HNL-AKL-SYD-BNE-SIN-LHR-ZRH. It seems to me that the trouble segments are SFO-SEA-HNL-AKL as there seem to be no direct connections for these segments on any OW airlines. One possibility I’ve come up with looks like this: SFO-DFW-SEA-DFW-LAX-HNL-LAX-SYD-AKL. My constraints are that I am flying in First (tough constraint huh?) and I want to make absolutely every effort to be on a 3-class plane when ever possible. I’ve also read that the HNL service from DFW is, should we say, not pleasant and that it is preferable to make the jump to HNL from either LAX or SFO. Thoughts?
