Did the HKG office of QR price it for you?
Was the pricing correct?
Did they not dispute your itinerary with you? If not, then you must have had a very simple itinerary!
How do you know the HKG office didn't get QR's RTW desk involved?
I wrote about my experience with QR's South African office last year in this post -

Others have reported similar problems with QR.
It is not a trivial exercise validating and pricing up a Oneworld Explorer, ordinary front-line ticketing agents do not see them too often and so a number of airlines have specialist RTW desks to handle them.
