Yup - Business Class On Orbitz For Ua Sfo-akl (auckland ,new Zealand) $1480.00 Appx. Roundtrip All In - All Dates Seem To Work - Don't Know The Rules - Somebody Can Post - Enjoy -
I managed to find the fare - it's UA to Sydney, then EK, NZ, or QF SYD-AKL. Below is an itinerary I put together for Thanksgiving ($1476 all in).
I'm probably not going to book this but am very tempted...
Has anyone been able to look at the fare rules to see what booking code this books into?

Q: Can I add stopover?
A: No, unless you want the HIP (Higher Intermediate Point) check, that will trigger a re-price.
Q: Can I change dates?
A: We will have to wait and see how UA treats this. Maybe Yes, maybe Not. Maybe only inbound and not outbound.
Q: Is the fare upgradeable?
A: Yes, 1 SWU each way or 30k UA miles each way.
Q: Once you have upgraded with 30k miles can you cancel & redeposit if you had second thoughts, or do you have to cancel the flight?
A: You can, provided there's space to downgrade to (i.e. the C cabin is not full).
And additional info or revisions you would like made to this, email me by selecting the "send email" link after clicking on my name.
