Oops, forgot that one. Thanks for correcting. Nevertheless, as you said, after Africa you have to go to Europe, making such an itinerary (at least) an xONE4 SWP-Africa-Europe-NA/SA-SWP.

To the OP: either go for a xONE4 which would give you plenty of spare sectors to use (especially in Asia) or buy a xGLOB29 and route LHR-MAD-LIM-SCL-IPC-PPT-AKL-SYD-LHR; in the GLOB fare you can use QF codeshares operated by TN (Air Tahiti Nui) and AFAIK TN operates PPT-AKL with QF codeshare. IPC-PPT would be on LA. The total mileage should be around 28k miles and you may have a stopover in PPT.
