Other then a one week trip to Singapore last September (which was booked prior to Qantas saying they were removing the booking requirement for last years status extension), I haven't been able to travel anywhere since my last holiday in late 2019.
So I now have around 15 weeks of annual leave, and work gets "upset" if annual leave is more then 8 weeks. I need to get things sorted out and booked soon, both so that work doesn't get more annoyed about my leave balance and the planned dates are getting closer (realisticly, I only have 3 weeks to get the ticketing sorted out).

I'm looking at a DONE3 ex Tokyo, I currently have the following:

HND-xSIN-xLHR-CPH-MAD-CDG-xDOH-xDFW-ANC-xDFW-YYZ-ORD-LAX-JFK-xHKG-xSIN-HND

I need to work out travel to/from HND (ex CBR). I used to use oneworld DAS13 (circle asia) tickets for that, but they removed those fares in late 2018.
I'm also trying to get to the 1200 QF Platinum retain status credit requirement by the JFK stop (I currently only have the 100ish SC from the CBR-MEL-SIN-SYD-CBR discount Y trip last Sep).
 
The best place for advice on the oneworld Explorer product is FlyerTalk. There are some members active in this thread who should be employed by oneworld to help frontline agents decipher the ridiculously convoluted rules.
