I’m planning out a DAS13 for later this year. Limit of 8 sectors and 13,000 miles touching each of three regions (North East Asia [Taiwan, China, Japan and S. Korea], South East Asia [Hong Kong, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines, Vietnam and Cambodia], South West Pacific [Australia, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea]).

For the last two years, I’ve done CBR-SYD-NRT-ITM-NRT-ICN-HKG-SIN-MEL at 12,966 miles with a connecting DONE3 out of either NRT or ICN.

This year, with MH having joined OW and the noises the DPRK have been making lately, I’d like to go somewhere else (TPE, BKK, other?) and avoid ICN. Though I also want to avoid an MH service into/out of Australia (because of the QF earn on them). I’m planning to connect to a DONE3 in NRT.
So far, I’m not having much luck finding a routing that gets me close to the magic 13,000 miles (everything thus far has gone over or been around 12,000).

I’d like to start with CBR-xSYD-NRT and end with SIN-MEL.
Any suggestions?
