YYZ - ORD - HND (stop) on AC J - NH F
NRT - PVG - SIN (destination) on NH J - SQ F
SIN - PVG (stop) on SQ F
SHA - HND - LAX- YYZ on NH J - NH F - AC J
215k AP + $650 cad in taxes , plus another $200 + HST for one round of change to incorporate the PVG<->SIN SQ F awards which appeared recently. May look into another change right before the trip to incorporate TG and/or LH F but happy as-is!
hey folks - so obv i had to have the above mRTW cancelled unfortunately
After digesting the changes to the new aeroplan program, decided to book another thing before Nov 8 for late summer / early fall 2021 and just hope for the best. While taxes will be a lot lower in the new program and removal of MPM would open up some possibilities along with possibility of doing 2 stopovers, I'm sitting on enough miles that it makes sense to go now.... here's my idea if anyone looking for inspiration, the below checks out in MPM and all available looking at June 2021 calendar.
YYZ - LHR - AUH (layover); AC J - EY F
AUH - ICN (layover); EY F
ICN - SIN (desti); OZ J
SIN - BKK- PVG (layover); TG J - TG J
PVG - NRT (stop); NH J
NRT - SFO - YYZ; NH F - AC J
Unfortunately SQ availability has really dried up since I was last booking in summer of 2019. I was able to find PVG-SIN in SQ F which would've been sweet this time
All the layovers are really just trying to extract some value out of the itinerary but there are direct flights that'd skip them altogether which I might do to avoid extreme fatigue
... AUH - SIN in EY F (not a380 apt) and SIN- NRT in NH J
