Try SFO-JFK-NRT-SIN-NRT-SIN-JFK-SFO (nesting the JFK-NRT-SIN RT in the SFO-JFK RT,) for 25,000 actual times 2 with the $100 deal. JFK-NRT-SIN RT are $720 apx and the SFO-JFK, well check for the best. Do twice (there is a 6 day min stay on the SIN fares. Total should be around $2000 and if you could nest the two SIN trips???</font>
Exactly! Did this twice from SEA in the space of two weeks. Rather enjoyable, actually. Flew to JFK, overnighted, began the SIN trip from there, and then flew back to SEA within two hours of SIN-NRT-JFK. For me, the only monotonous part was the JFK-SFO leg on the long-in-the-tooth 762s.
