Could somebody please check this for AONE?

Hi all. Could somebody please go through this itinerary for me please, for my first AONE? I think it's OK, but not entirely sure about my US legs.
BKK-HKG-SFO-ORD-ANC-DFW-LAX-MIA-EWR-LHR-DXB-LHR-AGP (Malaga)-LHR-HKG-BKK.

Can I basically just ring up CX in BKK (I live in HK) and order over the phone, to be picked up in person when I pop down there?

The LHR-DXB-LHR is purely a walk-off, walk-back-on mileage sidetrip. Is that OK?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Looks fine

I did the LHR-DXB-LHR turnaround - no problem

Why are you going to EWR? The First product is much better on the 747 ex-JFK than on the 777 ex-EWR!

And I presume you will be on CX LHR-HKG? Also much better!

Cheers

Thanks, BA, that was quick. The only reason I was going EWR was because I can't stand JFK airport! Is it an easy transit? If the F service is that much better, I'll switch. Cheers again...

Oh...

...and, yes, I'll be doing all the legs I can on CX! The primary reason for the trip is a friend's wedding in Spain. The secondary reason is that it will bump me from Gold to Diamond in the MPC. Hmm...OK, switch those priorities!

JFK Terminal 7 is fine, and the Concorde Lounge is great... BA lounge at EWR is terrible.
Can't you fly MIA - JFK instead?

The routing looks valid. I'm assuming that you want to stay in ANC, because SFO-ORD-ANC-DFW-LAX forces that whereas SFO-DFW-ANC-ORD-LAX allows you just to stay in ANC for a couple of hours.

Don't you have two more segments available in Asia? I'm only a novice at this AONE game but it looks like you may be able to throw in a HKG-BOM-HKG, or a HKG-NRT-HKG, or a HKG-DPS-HKG, etc., in for no additional cost.
