Therefore, combing other valid itineraries from the last few months posted on here, I've thought of the following:
YOW - EWR UA
EWR - BRU UA (STOP)
BRU - IST TK
IST - BKK TK (STOP)
BKK - SIN SQ
SIN-SYD SQ (TURN)
SYD-AKL NZ
AKL-YVR NZ
YVR-ORD UA
ORD-YOW UA
Is this valid? It is the front end to SYD from one person, the back end from another...
(I hope so, I hope so, I hope so...)
Hate to lose the Pacific, but Europe for a couple of weeks is pretty pleasant.
If this is valid, I may book it tonight (or tomorrow)!
I think valid except that you might not be able to include BKK. I did a very similar trip recently but out of YUL instead of YOW. YUL-EWR-FRA-SIN-SYD-AKL-YVR-DEN-ORD-YUL. There was absolutely zero chance of getting BKK included in there, spoke with many agents, tried multiple differnt routings (including similar to what you posted), just not allowed. Even without BKK the trip is over MPM, but including SIN on SQ (both FRA-SIN and SIN-SYD were on SQ for me, not sure if they both needed to be) means it falls under published routings so it's allowed. I did a side trip on my own dime to BKK.
