Suggestions for QF redemption

[KitKat]

Hi,
Mrs KitKat and myself would have about 850 000 QFF points together by the end of the month. This year would be a significant milestone - 10 year anniversary, so I thought it would be a good time to give ourselves a treat. Am wondering what redemption options are out there?
I have done some dummy bookings on MEL-LHR in F but was wondering if there are any other RTW options and how do I access them. Am currently looking at either London or New York as the main destination. Thanks in advance.

Hmmm, I thought you could just use the Points Redeemed Table to calculate RTW award trips.

I just did a basic dummy one:

Points required for a Qantas & Partner Classic Award
 
Trips (Sectors)                Points Zone (Miles) Class Award

Have you considered a OneWorld Award? You have enough points for 2 F class Awards.

Thanks for the replies.
What does "return miles" mean (in the one world classic award)?
Does this mean total miles flown like a RTW trip? eg MEL-HKG-LHR-JFK-LAX-MEL?

See this thread:

Basically if you can book an itinerary that includes travel on two oneworld airlines other than Qantas in, say, Business Class it will cost up to 280,000 point each + tax. (First Class is 420,000 each and 140,000 for economy)

The limits are 35,000 miles, 16 segments and 5 stopovers.
