I am not the OP and not doing AKL-HKG-SIN but the equivalent in my situation is it only pulling the first few HKG-SIN after AKL-HKG when doing it as a single leg which I tried. I want longer in HKG to go to the office and sort some stuff out and go home and grab another bag. Like I said, I don't care whether they call it stopover or transit or pumpkin spice latte, I just want my schedule and am not here to move it around to cater to their arbitrary married segment bingo. It is completely stupid that you can choose the HKG-SIN that is 1 hour after AKL-HKG (and the next 1 or 2) as a transit and then the one that is 25 hours after AKL-HKG as a stopover (with a sizeable price jump) but not the ones in between. They need to build their IT around what makes it easiest for their customers to get what they want and not expect their customers to navigate around their crap website figuring out how to tick all the rules to get what they want. It is particularly annoying that you can spend the time to price it and get to the payment page and only then does it 404. It annoyed me enough to just book BR instead.
