Looks like you can customize for your own needs & desires

Interesting.
I haven't taken a trip longer than about 3 weeks.
May still do it some day.
I'm not averse to buying a ticket that cost that much. In fact $5900 for business class just between Australia and the US would not even be the highest fare.
I guess if you customize it with different starting points, the price might change radically.
But if I'm going to spend that kind of money, I would want it to count against status and bonus miles, etc.
I go for status with UA so the Star Alliance option is over $9700!
Yikes ...
BTW I managed to find business saver award to New Zealand on UA starting in a couple of days. Really rare to find so the dates weren't optimal but it's still in January, their peak season.
