WOW ...you guys are masters.
Moscow is out as it will require extra work for the Visa etc.

I really like the EWR-ZRH-DUB-LHR-EWR option and was able to price leaving on the 19th and coming back on the 22nd for a little more

Here is the deal, I have Gold status with united right now... and I would like to spend at least a day or night where I am going. aka can leave Fri and return Sun. Only doing a mileage run for Gold status for 1000K doesn't seem worth it. If I can actually see a place for day or two would be great.

Appreciate any additional options
