So I can avoid all these limitations by making the trip JNB-HKG-...-LAX-LHR-DOH-CDG-DOH-LHR-JNB. That should work, right?

And, of course, with the 2015 Promotion, I can get an extra 12K AA miles by splitting LAX-LHR into LAX(AA)-JFK(AA codeshare op by BA)-LHR. But then, of course, I lose the 380 on that route, not to mention the longer flight. I can control my jetlag much better on longer flights, -- they're important to me for keeping sane and healthy.
