Thank you so so much everyone for your replies and input.
Seems like I’ve a got a lot of work ahead of me to make this work. This is prob going to be our one and only trip to Oz so trying to squeeze as much in as possible along the way. With regards to stopovers etc (which I’ve never done before) is it best to call and speak with an agent for the Asia to Oz routing? I’m rather confused as to if I should book each leg individually or try and ticket the whole thing.
