Also, you aren't using many F class flights. I would consider getting a DONE and using the savings for a couple bottles of champagne on the ground.
IIRC, there have been reports that AA refuses to ticket an itinerary with the LHR-HNL (or v.v.) segment if it includes backtracking to/from Hawaii. But BA will ticket. I don't what others OW airlines' position is on this.
