I think it depends on where you can find available award space. Generally, US-Europe awards are tough on SkyTeam though Aeroflot’s a pretty decent option and availability is better than AirFrance, Delta or KLM.

China Airlines is a great option get to NZ via Asia and from Asia to Europe. China Southern and China Eastern arent as great. Garuda is also a solid option but they have a smaller network.
