Hi all
I am not sure i am posting ion the right place but i am sure i will find out by your comments.

I am going to a biz meeting in Fra for a few days in nov and want to stop off in yvr way back for a coupkle of weeks , well because its a messy routing with YVR i am getting all sorts of fare leveles. However to today i got the flwg (as i wanted to use NZ whereever possible) in C class via expedia nov3 akl-sfo LH9809(NZ 8) -LH455 SFO-FRA Nov 08 FRA-YVR LH492 NOV 28 YVR -AKL NZ83 All in C Class and i picked yup the fare for 6928 plus tax =7623 NZD. This seems unbeleiveably cheap compared to what i found on NZ and also using KVS route finder etc , is this a mistake. originally i was going to go NZ all the way to LHR via HKG and tfr etc but this was around 10700, i am sorry this seems to cheap to me?? Slightly less points earn but i would be keen to hear a opinion or a direct to another site if i am in the wrong place.

appreciate any opinions

Cheers

Have look at Round the World's (RTW) info on the Staralliance (http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=413) forum or Oneworld (http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=411) forums. RTW's are a very popular topic's

7623 NZD seems a good price for a RTW in C.
Does it include surcharges ?
Looking at the correct currency & exchange rate?

That fare is certainly not a *A RTW (which are much more expensive). I would guess it is a normal LH europe return business class fare (from Australia and NZ these allow routing via either hemisphere or both). If so, then you can normally add on a couple of further intra-europe sectors at little or no extra cost.

Thanks for comments , i cannot find a fare this low anywhere on LH site or NZ and thats why i am susupicious, i have seat allocations and aiurline ref codes but no ticket no yet , when i search for this type of routing i cant come up with what expedia has , should i trust it??

The LH website is hopeless and NZ won't show this fare because it is a LH fare (the NZ equivalent fare is several thousands more).
