Hello mannen

Welcome to FT

Suggestion - search for the OneWorld RTW intinerary validator in the thread. It saves the great aggravation of interpreting the basic rules.

In your two alternatives, once you leave the SW Pacific region for Asia, you can not return. so SYD-HKG-CNS-HKG is not permitted. Also I think you will not find a direct OW KIX-SIN flight - you would need two flight coupons with transit in HKG.

Since you have a few available coupons, consider
AKL-ADL-PER-CNS as a side trip, though that routing is not the best part of QF's scheduling. AKL-MEL-PER-ADL-(BNE)-CNS would have much more friendly flight schedules. PER also has flights PER-NRT if the trans-Australia flight restrictions make scheduling difficult. AKL-BNE-CNS-BNE-(ADL or DRW)-PER-NRT would be possible

I can understand your desire to fly BKK-HEL on AY but if BA or CX give 100% mileage routing (SIN or BKK or HKG) -LHR-HEL-ARN would provide more mileage.

Happy wandering

WF
