My TA just threw another one at me:
CX AUS-UK A$3,999: AUS-HGK 1 leg in Y, one in J. HGK-UK 1 leg in Y, one leg in J. The killer on this itin is that one of the ultra longhauls (HGK-UK or vv) must be in Y...</font>
Willyroo, my understanding of the 3999 CX fare is either Oz-HKG or HKG-Europe can be J and the other Y, and the return is the same - either one is J the other Y. Therefore, I cannot see why you can't do the Euro sectors BOTH in J (and get the better SCs. Just slum it in the back of the "bus" from Oz. Check out the travel.com.au fare rules for this one (it's listed as a "business class" fare). This seems the least stressful way of collecting 370 SCs.
