My wife and I also struggled with balancing time off work, kids missing school and spending enough time exploring new destinations. Our solution was to split our RTW trip in 2 parts - Asia+Oceania around the kids' winter break and Africa+South America in the following summer break. Obviously, we needed to book additional awards to complete the trip - 60k AS miles each for CX J class for our return home to the US and 49k TK miles each for J class to NBO next summer. Get creative and plan yourselves a wonderful trip(s).
