An alternative avoiding the need for a CE hop after the First return would be to go to NRT or SIN, earning 480 TP for the BTB.
Technically, you're right (and could be done over half a very pleasant weekend indeed in SIN!) but the cost would be phenomenal (even if booked with an ex-EU from Milan as an I fare and airport-upgraded, etc at £600. you would be looking at £4,400 before stopovers (2xAUPs plus 2xCW returns), for around £10/TP.
