KHI-HKG...HKG-KHI adds about 1000 base miles.
Going via SFO instead of LAX adds a few.
LHR-MCT-LHR instead of DXB adds about 400.
Going via AKL is better.

A lot of these routes don't have 3-class planes.

I'm sure this could still be fine-tuned but:
KHI-HKG-NRT-HKG-JFK-SFO-ORD-DFW-ANC-ORD-SFO-LHR-MCT-LHR-SYD-PER-CNS-MEL-AKL-HKG-KHI is 66772 base miles.
