I'm headed to CPT mid-March from EWR. I'm looking for a *A routing that will maximize my earning, but also break up the trip a bit and maybe give me a nice stop in another city to explore. I'll need a round trip, but don't need to go the same route in both directions, obviously.

I'll likely be flying Economy since I wasn't able to re-qualify in 2015 so I'm making it a priority to earn as quickly as possible this year! I'll be going into the trip with at least 6386 PQM for this year.

Right now it looks like the likely routing is something like EWR -> LHR -> JNB -> CPT or EWR -> MUC -> CPT. I would like to avoid JNB if I can! (and FRA for that matter since I've already had a long layover there and there's only so much to do &#128514

Are there any other good possibilities you know of? Or other approaches I can take to meet my goals? Complicated routings are a new arena for me!

Thanks!
