Assistance w/ Complex Award Booking

Hello!

I am planning a big trip for my wife and I using miles, but the options are making my head spin. I put my current flight plan below (its the best thing I could find on the united booking tool). Was hoping to get some input from the experts here on if I can improve on this. Have also been considering using lucky's award booking service, but at the same time I can book the trip on the united site myself so its a tough choice. My wife and I have only traveled internatinoally once before and had the opportunity to enjoy united BF one leg of the way.

Trip: Philadelphia to the Maldives with a stopover in Paris
Dates: March 1st - 14th

Current Plan (all in Business):March 1st: PHL-MAD-IST-MLE (Duration 27hrs / US, Turkish, Turkish)
March 8th: MLE-IST-ZRH-CDG (Duration: 15hrs / Turkish, Turkish, Swiss)
March 14th: CDG-PHL (Duration: 9hrs / US)

Balances:
United: 50k / 50k (seperate accts)
UR Pts: 220k
AA: 280k
US: 80k / 40k (seperate accts)

Would love to hear your suggestions for changes, and thoughts on using an award booking service here!

Thank you!
Marben
