So what is the rule on doing
SYD-(BA)-LHR-(AA)-LAX-(QF)-AKL with no stopovers?
Would you only get charged the SYD-AKL mileage?</font>
Are you flying around on an award without any stops? I assume you're going to be staying in LAX.
Otherwise, you might get charged SYD-LAX + LAX-AKL = total trip miles. Or maybe SYD-LHR + LHR-AKL.
In any case, both legs get counted into the total miles for the purpose of the type of OW award you need. So LAX-SYD is 7,509 miles, and a RT on an oneWorld award would put you into a Zone6 AA award [14,001 - 20,000 miles].
