Pickles, if you don't already have the OW timetable, I'd encourage to download it. I find it an indispensable tool in planning OW RTWs and award trips.
Creative indeed, starting in HKG, and then roundabout to NRT. However, if I want to head to Europe, that leaves me with Finnair or BA (does Finnair fly to NRT?). How's the AA mileage earning on BA or Finnair, on an L fare? Not very good, I gather?

Thanks for the timetable tip.
