I don't have e-ticket issued yet but based on previous posts I can ask QF to send me one, I can see my itinerary from BA and QF though. yes I booked eX CAI. the whole trip would be CAI-(LHR)-HEL-(JFK)-EZE-(MIA)-YYZ-(DFW)-AKL-SYD-(BRE)-HND-(DOH)-CAI. brackets are connections. I was thinking to change my first segment but if it will cause a repricing(which seems to be the case) I will keep it as it is. definitely need to make some date changes on later flights.
If you want to repost that itinerary in the
Deciding on a FF plan thread and tell us the months you're traveling (this matters significantly due to differences in elite year vs. calendar year in some / most airlines) then you'll get some help. I haven't checked the miles on your itinerary yet, but you can almost always get to at least mid-tier status on RTWs from zero, and sometimes get all the way to top / OW Emerald level if played smartly (meaning planning entirely inside one elite year). We'll also need to know what airline each segment is on, that also makes a significant difference. Most likely candidates for status are AA, AS, QR, and BA.
