TYO-xHKG-LHR-DUB-LHR-DXB-LHR-NYC-HKG-xCGK-xHKG-TYO
I would be doing several flights in the continent of origin but would restrict it to two stopovers. Can be flexible with the exact routing etc.
Any advice would be appreciated before try and ticket this through a travel agent. I used to use Cathay direct but they appear to now direct you to the tool.

Not commenting on the validity of your itinerary.
In the Europe/ME continent, it seems a waste not to try LHR-DOH on QR A388 first class. I understand you are LHR based and may have reasons to do LHR-DUB-LHR. What kind of F do you have there?
