Pretty crazy to see Grabaseat advertising AKL-JFK for $579 Oneway. But then AKL-SIN for $800 Oneway, really showing the market demand for the US at the moment.
AKL-SIN must be a money promoting route for NZ/SQ currently.

It's like PVG being dirt cheap (particularly in BP) ex NZ because the demand is mostly from Chinese tour companies.

BKK to LHR is plentiful as well. Cash fare to MEL, partner reward to BKK > LHR is only 2300 APD.

+1, going via PVG to Europe instead of SIN will save you hundreds if not thousands.. plus it's usually a v4 instead of a 77
