Thanks for the detailed reply dvs7310

It was easier to do the screenshots of each segment and make a jpeg out of it. Please see below.

To get AA to ticket you'd need your DFW-SYD AA coded which generally isn't difficult unless near a holiday. Then QF gets real stingy with D space.
I was just about to reply to your €2K savings message when I saw your last edit. And indeed, I was interested in the savings until I realised it was OSL>DOH>ORD. You are right, I don't need to maximise tier points and the extra money isn't a big issue either given the extra time I would need (and it is small compared to the amount I spend with BA every year). I am just trying to get the trip done in the most efficient manner. Cost is secondary.

Looking forward to your comments on the itinerary.
