Is it possible to use the matrix that way, not a full tier point run, just DUB-HNL and back (which works out around 2.10 per TP though, the sales are happy days)...
Use the multi city booking tool on aa.com, Select by "schedule" with 30 or 40 options, Business with restrictions, set the evening before for the DUB -> LON then on the schedule page select the same main flights/codes (e.g. AA codeshare if needed) for your LON -> HNL that matrix shows you and the same for the return. You should be able to price it up. On the final page where it shows you the price you can click on View Fare Rules to see which fare code its going in under
