AONE4 assistance

Hi all,

Thanks for the help a couple of months back with the ONE routing. Now that all the stops are added, I am trying to work out how to squeeze out the last two flights.

This will be credited to QF so preference is for QF/BA/AA flights or flight numbers.

The routing I have so far is;
Seg. Routing Airline Class Continent
1. CAI-LHR BA A E
2. LHR–LAX BA A
3. LAX-DFW AA A NA
4. DFW-CUN AA D NA
(stop)
5. CUN-ORD AA D NA
6. ORD–TVC AA M NA
(stop)
7. TVC-ORD AA M NA
8. ORD-LAX AA A NA
9. LAX-MEL QF A
10. MEL-CNS QF A A
(stop)
11. CNS-AYQ QF D A
12. AYQ-PER QF D A
(stop)
13. PER-MEL QF D A
(stop)
14. MEL-HKG CX A
(stop)
15. HKG-LHR CX A
16. LHR-CPH BA D E
(stop)
17. CPH-LHR BA D E
18. LHR-CAI BA A E
(end)

Europe = 4/4
NA = 6/6
Australasia = 4/4

So I am a little annoyed that I am two flights short of 20.

Problem is GF is not overly happy on adding extra flights in NA (could buy TVC M class flights and add two more sectors). And has the bizarre preference against significant backtracking

I think the best option would be to add two flights in Asia but I cannot find any interesting options that would not add significantly to the trip length and have F service from Australia/NZ. Was amazed that QF no longer have F to NRT!

I know I could fly back on BA or QF and earn more miles, but I would love to try out CX F.

Oh and the stops are due to family and other reasons so cannot ask them to move so I can earn more miles!

Any help appreciated,

Mark
