I had a look at a few combos with stopovers and couldn't sort out anything cheaper so maybe someone else can chime in with a different experience.

Also LCC doesn't include baggage and the like, so sometimes ends up being a lot more than sticking with a nice carrier like PH

I didn't suggest an LCC and never would. My open jaw on CX was in small fee J except the one way which was full fare J. It was still $600 less than at that time, a ticket with a stopover.
