Each time I fly it, it is a hair under 15 hours of flight time.

If you are ever going to splurge on F, this is one of the flights to do it on.

ROI as in Return on Investment? Not sure what you are asking. Do you want to go to Dubai or Narita?

Not sure what you are saying here. You have credit card points and plan to use them to book a companion ticket on Emirates? I have never heard of this. I do think AMEX has/had a companion ticket program, but you would be paying the $24k round-trip price of SFO-DXB F.
