Some of those flights are blocking over 16:05 hours. There are CBA protections for crew rest on Ultra Long Haul trips over 16 hours limiting who can be on the jet.
After March 10th they are showing 15:45, so it may be allowed. We have flights every 2 or 3 days from ANC to PVG. You could try a connection.
