Hi All,

It's been a few years since my last AONEX.

I live in Sydney but can position to NRT, but I am looking for a good routing to maximise F, but using the OW tool I seem to be running into a lot of issues transiting in LHR.

What I'd like to do is something like SYD-DFW-YVR-JFK (assume Cathay still run this leg with F)-LHR(break for paid flight back to Oz) then 6 months later LHR-MCT-LHR-CPT-JNB-LHR-best use of Asia / south pacific and back to SYD or:

NRT-JFK-DEN-YVR-JFK-LHR (break) LHR-MCT-CPT-JNB-LHR (best use of asia / south pacific).

I'd welcome your thoughts as I get back into this. Happy to hear better ideas, my key constraints are I want to do SYD-DFW in QF F or equivalent out of NRT say to JFK, I want to get a 6m break in London (to travel back, then pick up again) I want to get to South Africa and I want to do something interesting in Asia before going back to AU. I want to max F sectors.

So far the best I have is SYD-DFW-las-YVR-JFK-sxm-JFK-LHR-mct-lhr-jnb-hkg-NRT-bkk-nrt-sin-SYD or nrt-jfk-sxm-jfk-yvr-las-lax-lhr-mct-lhr-jnb-hkg-pek-hkg-sin-syd-nrt or nrt-jfk-sxm-jfk-yvr-las-lhr-mct-lhr-jnb-hkg-bkk-del-bkk-sin-syd-nrt.

All improvements welcome.

Cheers,

Marcus.
