The cost of getting to AKL as an addition to a DONE3 depends a lot where you decide to stop and add the connection as a separate ticket. SIN/HKG/NRT (although I didn't price them) would likely no be high on my list. CMB and SGN however, might offer a great deal more savings. And even though further from AKL, would offer less expensive tickets. And in the end a return ticket will (err

) return you to where you paused the DONE3.
OTOH, had you said PER rather than AKL, SIN would be the logical stopping point.
