There is also the convenience of starting our journey at our local airport (MAN). Can anyone give me an approximate difference for the following itinerary (DONE5) starting/finishing in either OSL or MAN?

(MAN or OSL)-DOH-NBO-DOH-PER-SYD-CHC-SYS-HKG-BOM-KUL-SIN-HND-LAX-JFK-DOH-(MAN or OSL)

.
CX fly AKL-HKG and in southern summer CHC-HKG.

Adding NBO changes from DON4 to DONE5. [pandaPerth confirm?] Worth the cost and 2 segments? Could have a separate ticket to east Africa

KUL-SIN is short trip by land (bus rail) or cheap air ticket.

QF fly to DEL & BLR in India. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...s_destinations

Going to the extreme of a region then backwards in that region can increased earning in ff miles & status to a ffp. Check the distances vs status earnings
Exaple DOH-AKL non stop [QR] and then back to Australia
