Booked MEL-LAX, JFK-LHR, LHR-HKG-SYD on a RTW fare (VA, VS, VS, VA). Managed to get a reroute via LAX on the return a day later ex LHR. Thankfully all in J but am expecting a long day of flying on the return.
re: Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options
I was VA SG (now WP) and did a status challenge with QF (200sc for SG), MEL-BNE-CHC-SYD-MEL in QF J, CHC-SYD was on EK in J, all for just under $1800 for 520sc (with double SC)
