In theory, you're meant to be able to do it via Africa, e.g. LHR-JNB-PER. But the QF flight JNB-PER is op by SAA so its invalid. In reality, is there any way to go via Africa instead of Asia?</font>
QF operates JNB-SYD, so you would go JNB-SYD-PER. Uses a segment in Australia but a perfectly valid routing (and a very long flight on 2-class aircraft).
