What about Palau, Micronesia, Northern Mirianas and Marshall Islands? With CO joining *A these new exotic locations are available for redemption. Which zone would those be? Would it be in North Asia 2 given that there is where Guam is categorised?
SQ *A J Oz-NZ-SWP Awards is still the biggest bargain and keep the aussies happy (that is if they even know about this, most don't). Let's hope they keep it this way, especially Oz is one of their bigger markets.
One-way award is excellent, given for anyone living in major cities in Australia, with lowish KF balances such as 12.5K or 17.5K, that are about to expire, they can at least redeem 1 way NZ Y/J award from Oz to NZ, and then buy a el-cheapo ticket back to Oz. it would be a great way to try out NZ Business Premier (if offered on route)! Or even better, they can get 1 way Y/J Oz-NZ-Fiji (for example), then buy 1 way Fiji-Oz on say Pacific Blue/QF/VA.
