Have an ex-CAI DONE5 CAI-(DOH)-FRA-MAD...DFW-HND-SIN-HKG-ICN-SYD-PER-LHR-DOH. All 16 segments booked and currently in DFW.
If I need to skip Australia/NZ, what would be my best option to optimize mileage (Loyalty Points) while keeping surcharges low?
Perhaps ICN-HEL-DXB-DOH-AMM to squeeze out all segments? Or ICN-HKG-JNB-LHR-DOH to take advantage of that 5th continent? (Although fearing the BA surcharge for JNB-LHR)
Or maybe include something in India before jumping to Europe from ICN or HKG?
