You can't get significantly more mileage for SW Pacific. For the US the high mileage route is seasonal: ORD-ANC-ORD or DFW-ANC-DFW (operates summer only). Otherwise the classic is something like JFK-AUA-JFK-SJU-LAX-ORD-SJU (SJU-LAX is not daily most of the year, but the longest transcon, about 900 miles longer than LAX-JFK).
