Off the top of my head, for summer, and no idea if the schedules work...
BOS-DFW-ANC-ORD-SJU-LAX-LHR-IST-LHR-DXB-LHR-HKG-SIN-HKG-BKK-HKG-JFK-BOS

But for max miles and max CX F experience you'd be better off taking a cheap ticket on Air Asia or something for SIN-BKK-SIN and replacing the HKG-BKK-HKG with NKG-NRT-HKG (for F) or HKG-KHI/CMB-HKG for max miles, but only in J.

Hope that helps.

This is very helpful; thanks. I haven't flown QF in years (I flew LAX-SYD-LAX in F on QF about 10 or so years ago); when flying from LHR to Asia, is there any reason to consider one of the QF flights to SIN or BKK for variety, or is it not worth having to give up the CX LHR-HKG flight?
