I think CX will have stop in JNB to get refuel the plane is more convenient instead of going to SYD or AKL. It will much easier to flying one-stop in JNB to get refuel the plane. If there is a fifth freedom traffic rights through HKG-JNB-EZE.
that's why its in this thread not in a more serious thread. HKG-GRU/EZE of course cannot be on its standalone flight! but this would be fun!

pumping more ideas: SYD-JNB
PEK/SHA-GMP/HND/KIX/TPE (KA)
PEK/SHA-AMS/CDG/FRA/ZRH-LCY (Cathay Connect hub at LCY)
also LCY-LIS/EDI/MAN/DUB/JFK
