Weighing Two options right now, would love any opinions or suggestions.

The first is to go:
PDX-ORD on UA in Y
ORD-FRA-AMS on LH in Y 747-400
AMS-FRA-BCN on LH in J
BCN-IST-SFO on TK in J on the 13.5 hr flight back. (opinion needed on this) 777-300
SFO-PDX on UA in F

I could also go

PDX-SFO on UA in Y
SFO-IST-AMS on TK in Y 777-300
AMS-FRA-BCN on LH in J
BCN-IST-SFO-PDX on UA in Global first (need opinion here, is this better than the TK long haul?) 777-200

Which flights would people suggest? Looks like TK has a nice business class product and I've heard good things, but I could also come back in UA Globalfirst, which I know isn't anything particularly special, but would be nice for a 10 hour flight.

Anything helps! Thank you!
