Numerous or just a few extra coupons...
Hi,
Well SIN to Jakarta is a bit of a worry on this route without going via HKG as is the onward sector to Perth without going via HKG or SYD. I did the old SYD to Buenos Aires but now your only choice is to go via Santiago (and there is very little availability on this route for the booking classes used in the RTW ticket section) or the what the hell change in LAX et al without stopping in North America for the transit. My Santiago to Sao Paulo was a good sector. However, most of this route would be possible on a xONE6 route with the extra coupon purchase option.
I agree that the postulated route is a bit silly given the changes post 9-11 but it is a "global" alliance after all. Still you cannot do Westray to Papa Westray any more on 1W and that was a great two minute flight. Full fare domestic status points in economy for only GBP 8!
Happy route planning and may the status points be with you...
