AKL-EZE/GIG/GRU-AKL on UA, D fare, ~$4400 all in (USD)
Two stopovers allowed in the US, no HIP.
NZ codeshares on AKL-SFO/LAX-AKL or go via SYD for a little more. D class is upgradeable with SWU.
6 day min/90 day max stay.
This gives automatic *G in various programs including BD and AC.

There are also fares similar or less in business NZ to Europe on several airlines.

Not as good as the LCA fares but not too shabby. About what it's worth (barely).

Unfortunately the MPM is 6,082 so routing is via south atlantic only....

I bought the deal JNB-EZE for 3200 E all in 3 weeks ago.
The current fare remains for MH in First.
Otherwise It's gonna be tougher to find deals like we used to have (airlines are watching us).
By the way what's the best fare in F for a RTW with star or OW ? I knew MNL-MNL for 6000 e all in but it's over.

Thank you, I don't misread but it was the only point mentionning HIP and MPM in the fare rules.
But I have bought this fare, and no mention about limitation of MPM in the fare rules...
So, where is the MPM information in this fare?

MPM is not in the fare usually, but in a separate routing file.

The fares you are referring to are YY fares. They will have an MPM associated with them, which will not permit transit via Europe. The JNB-EZE MPM is 6082. The only viable option in C/F is MH JNB-CPT-EZE.

VS (CPT/JNB)-LHR-HKG-LHR-(CPT/JNB) 2123 All in
This fare might appeal to Londoners:
VS (CPT/JNB)-LHR-HKG-LHR-(CPT/JNB) 2123 All in - Upper Class
Fare allows for two stopovers, so can break the journey at LHR in both directions. You'll have to pay the extra APD for that though, which will add 160+ depending on when you travel.
