Bringing a good old thread back to life...

Now, with all the current restrictions as to the OZ transcons what do you think the max is? Specifically, I'm toying with the idea of a DONE4 entering the region in AKL and leaving it on one of the QF one-stops to LHR (i.e. SYD or MEL). I will have 3 segments left by then

The best I have so far is AKL-MEL-PHE-MEL->LHR

AKL-MEL 1640 2050 2460 ~swp-~swp QF 734 (jy), QF 73H (jy)
MEL-PHE 1974 2468 2961 ~swp-~swp QF 73H (jy)
PHE-MEL 1974 2468 2961 ~swp-~swp QF 73H (jy)

Can this be improved on?

PS I might take one more segment out of the rest of the itinerary and add it here if it makes it more lucrative. So your ideas of the optimum 4-segment itinerary in SWP are welcome, too
