Thanks for the link. I observed this RTW since a long time - but had no time to do it untill now. The addition of Malev is new (other sites still list the old partners).

The big advantage of this RTW is the coverage of Africa and India. The disadvantage is the weak coverage of South America (COPA) and Australia/New Zealand (Air Pacific).
KLM (see overview) / Northwest / Continental / Malaysian / Alaska / ... FFP are needed. Some "exotic" airlines like Emirates and Air Pacific will require a second FFP - or avoid these airlines.
The cheapest tickets should be available at the known places: South Africa, Egypt, ?.
