    RTW 2.5x - a DONE4 with stops in NYC, London and Italy (HCO only)

    My understanding QF3 SYD-JFK, if that is what on the e-ticket, counts as 1 segment and will earn as SYD-JFK. Not 2 segments AKL-AKL, AKL-JFK

    RTW 2.5x - a DONE4 with stops in NYC, London and Italy (HCO only)

    Subscribed to the thread. A busy 26 days. AKL has airside transit, but at CHC not offered. Will need to process NZ immigration, customs and biosecurity and then upstairs to process NZ security and emigration. Manaia lounge is to the right. Is QF3 ticketed as SYD -JFK or as 2 flights?
