X works as well. If I remember correctly, V is fine, too.

Thanks guys, only getting routings in the 1,100 range AKL - Japan. I'll keep diving in to find what i'm doing wrong.

If you are using the ITA Matrix calendar mode, it seems to show too high prices.
Just click a date in the calendar or enter it manually, the price should drop.

For example try

AKL-SCL on June 1 (booking class G)
SCL-JFK-NRT on June 4 (booking class S)

681€

Has anyone booking AKL-TYO eastbound been able to make it go anywhere past Japan?

Will give what you reccomend a shot, thanks. Specifically working in a Europe stopover. City isn't of too much concern however saw KRK-HEL-HND being a solid option. I'm only getting arrival into MAD. Any other city early May adds 150-200 Europe.

KRK usually does not work, neither does GDN, only WAW ever worked for me. try LA metal into FRA, should work like a charm as always.

PRG works particularly well is because OK is allowed on this tix with LA and they always have lots of space inventory FRA-PRG, MAD-PRG. If you fancy, ICN-PRG also works for transcon, and is really great for an OK-Plus member!

If you are looking for credit to AS I have extended this starting in PER. PER-BNE-MEL-SCL-MAD-ICN-TYO. All post at 100% eccept ICN-TKO on QF, LA & KE. Another option from MAD is EK via DXB. Further distance but V class at 50%. JL is an option too at 70%. I was able to do a 3 day layover in MAD for no additional fare.

Fare also allows LOT for WAW-ICN or WAW-NRT.

Having no luck getting a GPS/SCY trip in. I think would be better choice than PPT/IPC

Do you still manage to create/book these more complex routings? It seems that most (if not all) fares now have restricted transfers ro 3 per direction so the more complex itineraries are not possible any more? When this thing started, some fares at least had unlimited transfers which allowed very flexible and generous routings. But its still a pretty nice fare, lots of options aveilable..

I just booked AKL to NRT with the following stopovers AKL>PPT(6 days)>IPC(4 days)>SCL(1 day)>LIM(4 days)>MAD (1 day)>NRT. LA routes will credit to AS but not sure if my IB N class MAD>NRT will also.
