Are there interesting things be done with multiple-stops-on-one-coupon to push that up higher?

Will the answer be different once Continental joins and offers some more interesting trans-Pacific routes?
A little clarification will help in considering your question(s).

First, in your title you say 'non-EU countries' but then in the message it's 'countries outside Europe'. Which is it to be? Also, you talk about countries that are 'possible to visit' but then refer to 'multiple-stops-on-one-coupon'. In your view, does stopping at an airport, or changing planes, count as visiting a country?

cheers,

Henry
