Thinking of doing something crazy like this


KUL - KBR
KBR - KUL
KUL - JHB
JBH - xKUL - TPE (next day)
KUL - KBR
KBR - KUL
KUL - KBR
KBR - KUL
KUL - TPE

Wish me luck.. hope I don't die of boredom!
Glad to know I'm not the only one crazy enough to do something like this
When are you planning this trip? I'm doing a similar mileage run with no checked bags, hand carry luggage only ..
If it's after Easter, I'll post my experiences after my trip (plus a few days to get over the jet lag, like how I am adjusting now)
My itinerary is :

SIN - KUL (NIGHT STOP)
KUL - HKT
HKT - KUL - LHR (NIGHT STOP)
LHR - KUL - HKT
HKT - KUL (NIGHT STOP)
KUL - SIN

I did read about the uncertainties of doing a turnaround in HKT, so I'll be sure to ask the airport security to let me back into the departures area if I am being directed to arrivals & immigration.

It's the 1st time I am traveling long haul without a checked bag, so that'll be interesting!

p/s what does the x before the city name mean? E.g. xKUL - is that a stopover?
