Or if you wanted to do BKK first, OSL-xHEL-BKK,KUL-NRT-MNL-SYD,CNS-xSYD-AKL-LAX-MIA-UVF-MIA-LHR-OSL
Thanks Gardyloo, we want to do BKK first so your second option could be interesting and save a segment for somewhere else. Although unless I'm missing something we don't need actually that extra one to avoid the LGW,LHR transit, as we could already change:
...UVF-LGW,LHR-OSL to
...UVF-xMIA-LHR-OSL
But both use 4 segments so swings and roundabouts. Was trying to find a way to go LGW, somewhere, OSL...to get an extra trip somewhere, but OSL has very limited direct flights
After London will be the end of the RTW essentially, saving final OSL for a second trip so probably we will prefer direct to London at that point, being weary and worn out and all

Don't suppose I could get your wisdom on this too?
