I scrapped Africa based on time constraints, plan to do that with the family in 2012. Here is my final itinerary, an AONE5, which is on-hold so that I can go purchase it at the AA desk in YVR. Due to some errors in the online tool I was unable to book online, it kept failing after I put in my credit card.
