Thanks for all the advice so far ...

Why don't you go JFK-SFO-DFW instead and save some grief?</font>
Beacuase it's a Mileage Run! If I wanted to save grief I would fly HKG-HEL which is what my gf is doing to meet me there rather than:
HKG-JFK-YVR-DFW-ANC-DFW-ORD-LAX-LHR-CAI-LHR-HEL
over 100 hours, which is what I am doing.
(Because I have a DONE3 as my means of getting back to Europe - I originally needed to be in the US, but now I don't and it expires soon so I might as well do the six sector run - originally this was to keep my Diamond, but now CX has comped that it's just for the miles and to catsch up on a heap of books I've been meaning to read. Then I need to pick up a ticket to get back to HKG and the best way to do this is to go to CAI and get an AONE3.)
