Edit - I checked on the PPT-TYO again, and whilst it shows a route it is via AKL. I am leaning towards a visit to French Polynesia on another trip and going from Sydney straight to Tokyo but will look at some of the options suggested by Gardyloo ... Thanks to everyone for the detailed replies
If you can drop PPT, then a DONE4 will generally make more sense and give you more value than a glob ex. You could pretty much hit all of your other destinations plus a few more as noted by others above. 16 segments with unlimited mileage provides a bit more freedom and flexibility.
