and NYC-DFW-LAX-TYO-SYD-CGK still incurs the 20% penalty.

Meanwhile...



*A is actually better, thanks to the common Pacific template having an extra SFO after the HNL agglomeration.


I could probably do slightly better but ITA is starting to smoke a bit

20,503 miles one-way on *A - you should be able to do a mirror return. Note I am pricing with inventory validation off, so you probably can't fly these literal dates.

The *A fare also allows a stopover in Japan for ~200 USD, which is nice.
