Oh yes, of course. Well then you do not want a segment over 6000 miles then on Air NZ this would be the maximum PQP.

Credit should be in whichever account you can best make use- not necessarily whichever gives most points. Certain programs have expiration dates- a consideration for me not to credit to SQ.

Itinerary changes
Looking at GoToGate's T&C's for post booking changes, doesn't this give me carte blanche to go directly to the airlines to make my changes? GTG's service fee is on a sliding sclae based on ticket price which is quite frankly ridiculous, after all a change is a change, it's nothing to do with how much the ticket cost. There are no change fees with the airlines unless there is a change in booking class so it would be much cheaper (free) to go direct. Also my ticket has been issued by ANA, but the changes I want to make are to an ANA flight, an ANA flight (LH codeshare) and a LH direct flight. Would ANA be able to handle all of that for me?
Post Booking Changes
We offer You changes and additions to Your flight booking, including for example: Rebooking, name change, seating reservation, additional baggage, additional flight meals, addition of infant ticket and other airline ancillary services (each a “Post-booking Change”). The offers vary and are depending on Your specific booking and airline. A Post-booking Change to Your flight booking is subject to the fare rules and terms and conditions of the respective airline. You may also contact the airline directly for changes and additions.
Thanks in advance

I just want to say thank you to the OP for this. I was able to book an awesome trip and use up a bunch of future flight credit from cancelled reservations for myself and my wife.
CDG-FRA-LAS in October (using this to return from Europe after visiting London to see the NFL matchup, hopefully)
LAS-SFO-AKL in December
AKL-SFO in December
LAS-ZRH-CDG next April
These are not my dates, but this is a very similar itinerary to what I booked - Google Flights
Cost was $3,062.72 per person.
I'm incredibly excited about this itinerary. I have a question for the hive mind here - reading the fare rules it seems like changes should respect the initial pricing after I fly the first segment. Given that is the case, should I be able to change my last LAS-ZRH-CDG to May once I fly the initial CDG-FRA-LAS legs? I would prefer to return to Europe about a month later than I'm currently booked but the booking schedule wasn't open.

Aeroplan Mileage
Hi. I booked this fare a few weeks ago and I'm trying to decide where to credit the mileage on this fare. I would really appreciate it if someone could please help validate the calculations for Aeroplan... I used the cowtool and got 27,134 (I'm 50K) based on the following routing. Does his sound correct? Thank you in advance.

@chmielko Ron Montgomery (NZ-based travel agent) of Spirit of Travel has a Youtube video of himself booking a LH fare from NZ to LHR with stopovers in NRT and EZE using Amadeus GDS so perhaps you could try reaching out to him

Genuinely curious about how long this price is going to survive--Really could use it, since my family is in Australia and Asia, and I live in Europe and have work connections in US...But won't be able to fly this itinerary until June 2023. Fingers crossed that this is still going to be around for another 45 days...
