Hi, this is the first time i've looked at doing a fare like this. I am planning to travel on a CCPSTAR1, MEL-SIN-PEK-NRT-LAX-AKL-MEL (this comes in at less than 22k miles). my question is regarding the terms on ground travel not included in the CP fare.. I plan to do some internal US travel.. about 2,500 miles.. do these need to count in the CP fare calculation? or is that only when you need to travel between 2 cities in the CP fare.. e.g. arrive into LAX on the CP fare and Depart out of SFO.. then u count LAX-SFO. However I am arriving and deprating from LAX.. I dont exactly understand the condition related to this.

Appreciate your expert assistance. Thx.
