Easiest/ cheapest *A trip CDG > SFO/ LAX over the pacific

Thinking about doing this for fun... coming back from CDG over the pacific. Anyone know or care to guess which carrier and routing would be the cheapest?

If your trip is after December, I'd guess Air China connecting in PEK or PVG. For the transpac you could get UA metal with a CA code. Before December CA is not in *A.

In any case you couldn't do it all on UA metal, so you might want to ask in the *A forum.

Or SQ through SIN. I think everything else would be two stops (like FRA/ICN or FRA/BKK).

But cheap fare on SQ might not earn miles.
