Holy moly, sweet deals. Enough to put me off the CAI-ZQN deal on EK/QF... maybe.
Thanks, OP, for letting us know. ^^

Thank you. To use one of my favorite quotes from 30 Rock. "I don't believe in one way streets, not with my friends - and not when I'm driving". This is a community, like any good one there should be give and take - or at least attribution.

Not sure if there's a max stopover (fare wasn't even loaded in ExpertFlyer!), but I booked one with about 27 hours in Doha, which would count as a stopover. Planning to do the Discover Qatar free hotel stopover.

Not quite a cheap as the ex-MAN fare but from LHR in Nov, LHR>DOH>AKL return is £1715

As mentioned by @Raffles on HFP, it is likely that the DOH-AKL segment would be operated by a 777 on a 2x2x2 configuration... it would be enough to put me off if travelling alone.
Any way to get around it?

Very many thanks for this. Booked for 2 of us in November. Well timed flights 2h10 on way out and 1h40 on way back in Doha so no nasty 7-9 hrs stop overs. An amazing price from manchester; saves a bit ; money and time; not having to trek to Scandinavia !
