The other would be LAX-AKL-ADL/MEL-AKL-LAX in C for 90,000 miles on NZ. Not sure about the actual price on that ticket though. Maybe $8,000 for $0.089/mile.
Bolding mine: ^ I couldn't agree more. I "scored" 2 Saver-F awards for goalie-parents* MIA-MUC-CDG/CDG-ZRH-MIA out on LH and back on LX for 270,000 miles (135,000 each plus total taxes of $330) on my first call to UA back in January, 2010 for travel June, 2010



*goalie-parents couldn't have been happier and I stayed in the will
