As for UK to NZ main Oneworld airlines wound be Qantas (via Australia), Cathay Pacific (via Hong Kong), Qatar (via Doha) & Malaysia (via KL). These could/may earn to any OW airline ffp, such as BA
EK, SQ, Air NZ and the 2nd tier Asian airlines will also get you UK to NZ.

If your NZ destination is not Auckland and you wish to fly into another NZ city airline options reduce a lot.

Sorry, when I say partner, I mean FFP.

I notice star alliance flights are around £800 cheaper business class, so was wondering if there is a specific reason that BA FFP would be better than a Star Alliance out of London, or if another One World FFP would give better miles for being able to use those miles to buy future business class tickets?

Thank you
