D Global~~ Need some help! =)
Hi all!
I've been mainly roaming around the forums reading things but have finally got enough time to get to doing a round the world trip! After searching, I don't think it's possible to have PPT (Tahiti) on a xONEx itinerary so I put up a DGLOB together.
The places we would like to visit are:
BKK - Bangkok
NAS - Nassau, Bahamas
SXM - Saint Maarten
PPT - Papeete, Tahiti
AKL - Auckland
We live in Perth, but my partner is from JPN, so it's great that we can start and end in Japan, and quite useful!
So what I have is:
FUK-HKG-BKK-LHR surface LGW-ANU-SJU-SXM-MIA-LAX-PPT-AKL-MEL-PER-ADL-PER-NRT
33965 miles
Just short of 34000~!
Included:
First trip to all our destinations starting from FUK (Fukuoka Japan)
Second side trip from Perth to Adelaide
Third half trip from Perth back to Japan
I couldn't fit NAS into the itinerary but it seems like it's a cheap flight from Miami on AA so that's okay! (just 183 miles)
Points for you experts!
1. This violates many rules on the xONEx such as more than 4 SWP segments, backtracking from PER to SYD/MEL/BNE, but as far as I have read, there are no rules in the xGLOBx so this itinerary would be valid?
2. Would now love to fit NAS somewhere in there...dont know how though!
3. There are only 14 segments there~ If it is possible throw another 2 segments in or to maximise it to 34000, ideas would be awesome! We love
travelling around Asia and especially Japan.
Thanks a lot guys!!!!! There will definitely be a trip and airline report~ =)
