Forgot to mention one of the big advantages of NZ - awards for NZ operated flights are always available if there's a seat and you have enough airpoints dollars to buy it. Useful if redeeming trans-tasman or to south pacific.
Do you know what product RTW has been purchased? If its a RTW Star 1 (29k mile limit), 2 (34k mile limit) or 3 (39k mile limit) then generally booked into M class so earns at full economy rate. IIRC RTW Star Lite (26k mile limit) then its a lower booking class and so may earn full or discounted economy rate depending on the FFP. If the RTW isnt a *A product but is combination of airlines (eg Singapore Four Corners) then would need to check the product as to booking class and whether treated as full or discount economy for mileage earning. In a lot of *A FFPs, discount economy earns significantly less (or none) mileage.
