Are you familiar with www.gcmap.com ? Great for visualising routes and comparing options.

Krt-AMM-Lhr-lax-jfk-eze-DFW-nrt-del-tyo-fra-amm-krt = 44520 flown miles

Thank you. I knew. However, it has not understood whether this route is correct.

The Mileage Monkey tool will tell you if your proposed route complies with the Oneworld Explorer rules. Type your route into its Oneworld Explorer Validator box.

For a DONE5 itinerary, you will have to decide which of the six continents to leave out. Since you want to visit JFK, EZE or SCL and TYO and you are starting from Europe - that means leaving out either Africa or the South West Pacific.
If you are wanting to maximise miles - I expect it would be better to leave out Africa. Then you can make use of the rule exceptions that allow two visits to Nth America and Asia with a routing such as EZE-JFK-NRT-SYD (which of course takes many more miles than flying EZE-SYD non-stop:D)

Thank you for good information. It was very good. How about this route?

Yes - that route is valid

There are a few things you need to be aware of - I think you now know them already:
  • You are allowed at most two stopovers in your continent of origin - so of the stops you have - AMM, LON, MOW, AMM again - you have to decide which will be transits and which stopovers
  • Your second visit to NYC - after EZE and before TYO - must be a transit
  • Your visit to HKG must be a transit

You are using all 16 allowed segments (^), but you have not fitted in SCL which you said you would like in addition to EZE. If you don't want to go to HKG, then you can fly SYD-LON direct and so save a segment which you can use to visit SCL. Here's a routing for that
Krt-amm-JFK-lax-eze-SCL-JFK-NRT-del-NRT-sin-NRT-syd-LHR-DME-amm-krt

So - the next thing for you to think about is which frequent flyer program to accrue all the miles to. But that is a whole new topic of conversation:D

One of my current DONE03 ex-AMM:

AMM-BKK-NRT-CGK-NRT-HNL-ORD-MIA-LAX-DFW-PSP-DFW-LHR-DME-MAD-LHR-AMM.

Only reason I didn't do ANC is that I just did on a DONE04.

Where/when are you seeing LAX-EZE? It was around briefly about 3 years ago, but I haven't seen it since. Also note LAX-SJU seems short for this world; not in the current AA schedule past August.

I think I'm correct in saying that the '##' means it's operated by another carrier, but for some reason KVS cannot display it.

According to itasoftware the other carrier is LAN Peru. Therefore the flight would be allowed on an xONEx itinerary.

Pseudo-codeshares include subsidiaries, wet/dry leases, and all other arrangements that are not actual codeshares with distinct flight numbers.
