What a timely post, as I was going to ask the same question today.
Does anyone know if you can go via SYD both ways on an ex AKL Circle Pacific? Reason being, if I was to buy an F ticket, I would want ALL long hauls to be on routes with an F cabin. An example routing I was thinking of would be -
AKL-SYD-LAX-LAS-BOS-JFK-SFO-HKG-SYD-AKL (this is over 26k according to great circle mapper) but is only an example. Assuming the miles worked out, would the routing be ok? I actually live in SYD, but want to start ex AKL to save money, and I do an annual trip to NZ which I can incorporate into this.
Cheers

rules changed or ?
That is interesting to hear ...
Have OW changed the rules in the past 2 years as I was not permitted 2 years ago on a Circle Pacific D26 to fly WLG-SYD-LAX part of my proposed routing as it was not in a continuous West-East direction.
I queried this many times with QF - called back several agents etc - and was only allowed to fly AKL-LAX direct - and is why i did a D rather than an A fare as there is no A option AKL-LAX ....
I wanted to fly WLG-SYD-LAX-JFK-ORD-LAX-HKG-MEL-WLG if I remember correctly
Does that now qualify as a valid routing ?
Many thanks

There is NO rule in regard to 'backtracking' in the xCIRnn in relation to travel within a continent.
AKL-MEL-LAX-NRT-SYD-AKL is quite valid.

Maybe your routing exceeded 26k miles and that is why the agents considered it invalid.

Circle Pacific expensive from OZ, how could I book it in HK from Aust.?.
I have a good Aussie mate lives in HK could book for me if need be, would that work?, but then how do i get my QFF points?, or is it just that they in HK want to make sure of payment?.
