I only have about 70k united miles (and 50k us air miles but I'm saving that for Hawaii unless you all tell me of a way I can include Hawaii on my int'l trip)

Must see:
St Petersburg, Russia. LED
Phuket or Bangkok. PHU or BKK

Would like to see on a "23 hour layover"
Stockholm. STO
Zurich or Geneva. ZRH or GVA
Bali. DPS
Siam Reap. REP
Dhaka. DAC
Dubai. DXB
Cairo. CAI (if safety situation changes for better

Maybe's if there's time left. A few more layovers:
Kuala Lumpur
singapore
hanoi
Any other places you'd recommend in Europe and Asia. ( I've already been to Greece (but not Mykonos), Italy (but not Turin), France (but not Nice or French Riviera), Vatican City, Germany, Austria, United Kingdom, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, India, China, Hong Kong and Japan.)

I would only have about 2 weeks for this trip and I'm trying to get everything for as close to free as possible, as finances aren't great right now, while still maximizing the number of countries I visit. I've done much slower travel but work schedule, finances and mood won't permit anything more than 14days off work.

The closest major int'l airport to me is ATL geographically.

Thanks in advance!!
