Thats nice. JNB instead of DXB will give you more miles plus BA A380 if you want that.

Dec 1 IB 7629/IB 7443 DXB 2:35AM MAD 10:50AM 11h 15m via LHR
Dec 2 IB 3160/IB 7624 MAD 9:10AM DXB 11:35PM 11h 25m via LHR
Dec 3 IB 7573/IB 7507 DXB 10:05AM ORY 6:40PM 11h 35m via LHR

I don't quite understand all of the restrictions on the fare, but it appear that:
- You have to leave Paris on the 30th and arrive at your first stopover that same day.
- Your return leg needs to be on Dec 1st or later.
- Flights must have IB numbers but can be operated by other airlines

As a caveat, I believe that AAdvantage will credit these miles at 80%, as long as the operating carrier is OneWorld, but that's still 3.5cpm.
Thanks for sharing this deal!

I found JNB for 340€ now with 3 out of 4 legs with A380.

This is ridiculus!

I can find the JNB routing on March 6, 7, 10, 11 and 13, 14, 17, 18.

It seems only Thu-Fri and Mon-Tue combo works? I cant find DEL. I was in JNB last year, so trying to see some other place I might want to see a bit!
