Normal plan would be WT+ out and back using BA holidays, so my budget is about £2500 total for the flights. But I also need to pop to Singapore and/or HKG in Nov- not far from DEL, so I'm thinking of some sort of LON-CPT-SIN-DEL-LON routing. Outbound 6 NOV return 16 NOV. Total budget then about £3500 or more if I top up myself. I would love to get >1000 TP which would take me within striking distance of the 5000 for GGL

My initial thoughts are to use Qatar lon-doh-cpt-doh-sin-(MH?? via KUL)-DEL-DOH-LON but maybe Sri-Lankan, CPT-SIN HKG. The weekend is usable for oddball routings.

Any creative ideas for where/how to start exploring
If you're looking at spending money after this trip to get up to the 5k mark it might be worth looking at an ex-OSL DONE4 RTW ticket. If you maximise the 16 sectors you could easily rack up a couple of thousand TPs on the same trip.

I believe a DONE4 ex-OSL is around $6800 currently.
