Thank you all for the feedback. SFO-DFW-NRT-TPE sounds great but I need to find out the total travel time cause I want to be in a semi decent shape to attend meetings on the first day I was also considering CX (for mielage plus) and SQ (for AAdvantage). Would these alternatives work? CX has a double mileage bonus from SFO to HKG right now.

Thanks and best regards.
