Is this rtw it Okay?
Hi I hope this is okay with the rules etc.
I do have to factor in time constraints , I have two its set up, I perfer this one
Bos-Lax-Ord-Anc-Ord-Hnl-syd-bne-per-dps-hkg-del-lhr-bos;
or Bos-sju-ord-anc-ord-hnl-syd-bne-per-dps-hkg-del-lhr-bos; I will be leaving on sept 30 so the ord-anc flights are okay.
Thanks in advance, Sara

They both look OK at xONE4 itinerary, subject to the constraint that you can only have two stopovers in N America. If the schedules fit you can get a couple of hundred miles more by going to SFO instead of LAX. And obviously you can get lots more miles if you have time to use the extra segments.
If you are doing it up the front remember that the SJU flights and the HNL-SYD don't have a First class.

this would utilize 6 Na segments or I could leave return dps-hkg-del-lhr-bos.
What do you think? thanks, Sara

You can buy 2 extra segments per continent but not in your continent of origin (which sadly is NA in this routing). So the 6 segments for NA is a hard limit (along with 2 stopovers). Presuming you didn't want a 2nd LAX stopover, you could revise the routing to be bos-lax-ord-anc-ord-tpa-jfk-syd-akl-bne-per-dps-hkg-bkk-lhr-bos which reduces it to 6 segments and actually increases the mileage along with better comfort (but JFK-SYD operates only 3 days a week).
