God... After countless hours (probably close to 100 hrs) on the phone throughout the past 7 days or so (I only have Aeroplan Black which as the same as no status), and talked to many different agents...
I am finally happy to report that I made our first (kinda) true mRTW Post-Amadeus segment by segment for later this year...
No crazy criss-cross, but still technically around the world so to speak.
YVR - YUL = AC (20 hrs Layover)
YUL - ZRH = LX (10 hrs layover)
ZRH - VIE = LX (18 hrs layover)
VIE - ATH = Aegean (Stop)
ATH - IST = TK (12 hrs layover)
IST - SIN = TK 787-9 (12 hrs layover)
SIN - CGK = SQ (Destination)
CGK - SIN = SQ (18 hrs layover)
SIN - TPE = SQ (16 hrs layover)
TPE - PEK = BR (3 hrs layover)
PEK - YVR = AC
Will try to look another segment from TPE - YVR direct later but we're very happy with this itinerary (basically every segment is what we put down as note & already have in mind)
Total fee per person ~$460
