How to maximise PPS sectors with this CRWSTAR?

Some things which spring to mind immediately:

You need to hang around in Asia to get more PPS sectors. Do you have to start in SIN ? Otherwise, you could fit in runs to CGK, SGN etc. On the PPS runs thread in TOF, you can get 25+ PPS sectors with a CRWSTAR (not sure whether it was a CR1 or CR2 though) starting from e.g. BKK (but that was before ZRH-MAN stopped).

I don't know about how this will affect your overall mileage but you could also do (e.g.) SIN-PEK-KIX-BKK-NRT-LAX with PEK-KIX being on NH and the rest on SQ.

For the ones who thinks about PPS Runs, here is the information to read in FT:
