But, if you don't actually want to go to Africa, then you are adding an unwanted continent - and the result is next to no saving compared to Japan

Edited to add:
Last year, prior to 1-August, the base fares were:

DONE4: USD2753
DONE5: USD3138
DONE6: USD3815
(see this post - http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/26964795-post311.html-)
.

It used to be a LOT cheaper but the difference is now marginal and I don't actually want to include Africa. Plus, positioning there is a lot more expensive for me than positioning to Japan would be.

OSL would totally work for me too (probably better than Japan even), can I look up the base fare in KVS? I don't have an EF subscription.
