YOW-EWR-ICN-AKL would require MPM+25%, so the only way this would be permitted is if there was a Routing-based Fare with such a routing.

Thanks for the response, which immediately leads to the next question; what is a Routing-based Fare, and where can the information be found?

Is it as simple as going to a star alliance carriers web site and pumping in departure point YOW and Destination as AKL, and if the routing provided is (as in the case of LH) YOW-FRA-SIN-AKL-SFO-FRA-YOW, then this is acceptable as an award ticket even though total mileage is around 30,000 vs the MPM of around 21000?
