Thanks, so the longest in that thread that appeared to be valid was
syd-akl-hkg-BOM-HKG-KHI-HKG-JFK-sjd-jfk-ord-sju-lax-LHR-ist-lhr-dxb-LHR-mel-cns-syd

which was about 65946 miles, BUT 20 sectors, so with the new rules the mileage will be even less. Hence, it probably is NOT possible to get the 100KEQM AA miles in one RTW given that you could only get 16 sectors and would need to earn about 66,000 Miles * Business 1.5 multiplier to get 100K EQM.
