I'm also contemplating my first RTW scheduled for next April -

I would like stopovers in SFO, CLT, JFK/LGA, IST & LHR (Due to the dates I need to be in CLT & IST, I can't fit the stopover in LHR between them). If possible, I'd also like to stopover in LAS, however this isn't essential.

Below is my routing I'm working on - does anyone see any problems with it, or have any suggestions.

SYD-LAX (UA) - Transit
LAX-SFO (UA) - Stopover
SFO-LAS (UA) - Stopover
DEN-COS (UA) - Transit
COS-DEN (UA) - overnight - but not a stopover
DEN-ORD (UA) - Transit
ORD-CLT (UA) - Stopover
CLT-ORD (UA) - Transit
ORD-LGA (UA) - Stopover
JFK-LHR (UA) - Transit
LHR-VIE (OS) - Transit (Possible Stopover)
VIE-IST (OS) - Stopover
IST-VIE (OS) - Transit
VIE-LHR (OS) - Stopover
LHR-SIN (SQ) - Transit
SIN-MEL (SQ)

Thanks

Beck
