Maximizing BIS Miles in a DONE3

There has been some discussion about how many BIS miles can one get in an xONE3, xONE4, etc. (Obviously earned miles/points will depend on which airlines one flies and the program to which one credits.) Just planning my next ticket, a DONE3 which will start in November, assuming that prices haven't gone up too much since my last ticket. Here's the itinerary as currently planned: NRT-DFW-BOS-DFW-SJU-DFW-JFK-LAX-DOH-DUB-DOH-MAD-DOH-ICN-CMB-BKK-NRT. 52,093 BIS miles according to Milecalc. Would have been a bit longer, but apparently there's no DFW/ANC service in the winter.

Intentional stops/destinations are BKK, BOS, DOH. The rest are MRs. Happy to receive suggestions for increasing mileage! I'm going to try to credit AA marketed flights to QRPC and non-AA flights to AAdvantage.
