Greetings;

We will be doing a DONE4 ex WAW starting in May This is our first RTW using FT guidence.Our goal is to use the DONE4 to get us as close as possiable to AA Ex. Plat in 2005. (!00,000 points)

Would someone be good enough to look over our plan and see if all is within the rules. Also and very important just how many points/miles we will earn. I don't want to be short at the end of the year!

Someone was good enough to check out a DONE4 for us starting from BKK by PM but, we are leaning toward WAW due to cost (Everything is X2)

Here is our DONE4 starting in WAW:

WAW-LHR-*AUH-LHR-LAX-*BOS-DFW-*ANC-DFW-*JFK-*SYD-*CNS-*MEL-*AKC-SYD-*HKG-*DPS-*HKG-*BKK-*LHR-WAW.

Using GC Mapper I come up with 57258 miles. (I am counting on gaining another 28629 points from AA Bus. bonus..?)

Questions :

Am I legal ?

Am I close with the miles and points?

Is there a better way to go? DPS is for the miles as example...I what to do AUH, BKK, ANC and the SWP all else is for miles and to get "there" The more points /miles I can rack up on the DONE4 the less I have to earn elsewhere.

When should I buy the tickets?

Anything else that I should be doing?

As I have said in another thread we have gone around the world two other times........before I found FT....we ended up with a total of 10,000 miles on Koren Air...used brokers...yes it was cheaper but not that much cheaper and not half the fun!! Since FT we are AAPlat. ,etc,etc..............Thanks to all once again......................
