Unhappy Evergreen around the world non-rev trip

About five years ago, my wife and I did a 14-day around the world non-rev trip with Evergreen International. After listing, we rode and slept in the back. We stayed at the crew hotels and rode in the crew van to and from the plane. 2-days in HNL, 3-days in Sydney, 3-days in India, etc. No ID-90's. They fed us. The price was right. We payed basically only for hotels in the layover cities. It was the trip of a life time.

Now, our kids are old enough. So, I thought to do it again with the kids. But, alas Evergreen is no more.

Does anyone know if there is a similar deal that can be done on another cargo carrier?

Not quite around the world, but you can do ORD-HNL-AKL-SYD-BKK with Atlas, timing is a bit sporadic though. From BKK you can go on UAL through to NRT-GUM-PNI-MAJ-HNL.
