Hi! I have a hypothetical question. I'm about 13 months away from defending my thesis and I'm already drooling for an epic grad trip that I want to slowly plan while I hobble away writing.
I have a decent balance on BA Avios and Asia Miles that should be able to support this trip. I'm interested in the oneworld multi-partner redemptions. I notice that the highest redemption band for the multi-partner redemptions go up to 50,000 miles of flying.
Info on multi-carrier redemptions:
BA:

Asia Miles:

Problem is, of the hypothetical RTW routings I'm making, I can't seem to hit 50k miles!
My constraints are:
-RTW is okay, but no significant backtracking
-16 segments per IATA ticketing maximum (nowhere on Asia Miles or BA does it say there's a segment cap so I assume it's ok; someone please correct me if I'm wrong)
-Doesn't need to have award availability, I just want to know the route is possible!
-Origin doesn't matter, though I am starting from YVR (home airport YEG if AA decides to fly here again)
Some routings I've tried:
Great Circle Mapper 44.2k miles faux-RTW
Great Circle Mapper 44.6k miles true RTW
Can anyone take on the challenge to see if they can break 50k?
