A guy in the trip reports forum wrote a great review of his RTW trip in C class.

Last year I got a FIRST Class "Circle Pacific" fare from Air New Zealand and Singapore Airlines - LAX/AKL/SYD/SIN/LAX - that was cheaper than the BUSINESS Class fare would have been LAX/AKL/LAX.
Since they (between them) fly to all the places you want to go, I suggest you try them. The only problem might be LAX/AMS - you may have to fly through London and get an add-on fare (pretty cheap) from London to AMS.
I did not find this on the Internet, I got it through a travel agent. But Round The World tickets are often much cheaper than simple round trips.

SQ advertises on their website with a RTW ticket on SQ and ANZ. Prices are relatively good in C class, around 4000 EURO. Go to the regional website for The Netherlands.

I did a J Class Round the World with UA and SQ which was excellent. The fares were (are still are) about AUD6500 compared with a return J Class flight to east coast USA of AUD8800.
Check sites such as travel.com, orbitz, travel.com.au or the equivalent in your country to source the best fare and airline combinations.
