DONE3 ex-KRT -- optimisation ?

Hey guys,
In the end, I chose a DONE3 ex-Khartoum (leaving november 6).
I've probably spent over 30 hours just reading and learning from FlyerTalk this week (I'm new here). I've saved SO much money thanks to you guys ! Thank you so much.

I was wondering if someone could take a look at my itinerary and maybe suggest a way I could optimise anything.
- I'm travelling wife my girlfriend, choosing to spend time in most the cities we stay in.
- Dates starting august 1st are false (since you can only book 330 days in advance)
- I'm booking through AA RTW desk and ticketing through canada (thanks for the tip, already talked with Naeem) -- I live in Paris France.

What do you think ? (We'll both be signing up for AAdvantage)
Would love your input in you see potential improvements. (plan to buy in 24 hours tops)

I'll post updates about how it goes with ticketing and the specifics through Kartoum.

Thanks a lot !
