outwit my travel agent

My family is going rtw with Global Explorer. The planned itinerary is as follows:
YYZ-MIA-UIO-SCL-AKL...
at which point we wanted to go AKL-APW-NAN-AKL-BNE-JNB-LHR-VIE-LHR-YYZ...

My TA tells me however that we can't use PH (Polynesian Airlines?) and therefore must go AKL-NAN-APW-NAN-AKL-BNE, etc. effectively putting us over mileage to do anything in Europe. I feel I'm at the mercy of this TA because she is booking all the flights, some of which appear difficult to arrange when 5 M class seats are involved. If I go elsewhere, I may not be able to get the same flight schedule we have painstakingly crafted. On the other hand, I don't have confidence in her knowledgeability.
Open to suggestions.
