Thank you for your input.

I would wait until the end and then do some Y flights to HEL and use your upgrade vouchers for a sidetrip to HEL to gain the last missing TPs.
Thank you, do you mean the status 10% (silver) 15% (gold) bonus rather than the 125% on non FAIB?

I haven't often found good ways to spend Avios other than an Amex companion ticket or 1p per Avios redemption on the first £100 of a BA ticket.

JQ segment must be marketed by QF to be allowed, I believe.
Who is flying AKL PPT?
Ah, the AUH/DOH same continent?

The JQ sector is showing as valid on the OWRTW tool (although I accept that doesn't mean too much).

AKL-PPT is Air Tahiti on a QF flight number.

Here is an edit of the spreadsheet with above comments in mind.
