4 - Do the base prices vary - are there sale fares sometimes ?? - or is it solely distance related

5 - Re the question about the SA - South America leg, would I be better looking at reversing the journey (Europe - SA - India - Far East - Aus - NZ- US -Europe)
1. ExpertFlyer
2. ex-SA from GBP3695 to GBP3116 for 6 to 5 continents.
3. Nothing close to SA.
4. Very rarely there are some sales, check the threads linked
5. Possibly up to you what works best and that fits in the routing rules.
