I'm planing a stopover in Tahiti next time I take my girl to Hong Kong, starting RTW from Brazil:

GRU/MIA/LAX (UA)
LAX/PPT (NZ)
***stopover in PPT***

PPT/AKL/HKG (NZ)
***stopover in HKG***

HKG/DEL/LHR (UA)
***stopover in LHR***

LHR/JFK/GRU (UA)

Is this route ok? I dont want to take LHR/GRU on RG because of 100% bonus on UA, but then I'm not sure about landing in US twice...

Btw, anyone can help me calculate the mileage? UA and NZ sites show different mileage for same flights (yes, I've checked and NZ is not using Km). Also, I don't know if UA considers HKG/DEL/LHR or HKG/LHR for miles.
