This is what I've come up with, at a cost of £1270 for the QR flights (400TP), £838 for the UL flights (560TP) and £732 for the CX flights (360TP). Obviously there will be hotels on top of that. I'll then add a round trip from LHR to OSL before and after.

My questions: are there any ways to optimise this? Is this just a bad idea altogether? Is there some other completely different routing I've not picked up that would be both interesting, fun and TP rich?

Thanks
