Okay, Guam I know something about. For some reason it's always held a fascination for me, even 15 years before I was stationed there.
Options are limited in 1969, so:
TW 707 GUM-OKA-TPE-HKG
AI 707 HKG-BOM-ADD-DAR
Not a bad guess, but in checking whether Air India served Dar, my schedule showed no service from India other than an East African VC10.
On a positive note, the 707 is the aircraft of record, and TWA is involved in this itinerary.
Unfortunately, outside of GUM and DAR, none of the other airports you've listed in your routings are relevant to the itinerary.
Still, now that they're out of the way, you can proceed with greater clarity.
Good luck!
This actually makes it a lot easier! TW is involved, they didn't fly to DAR, and we've eliminated all the points they served west of Guam. Therefore, we must be heading eastward. PA had an extensive network in Africa in those days, so now it's going to be a matter of choosing the correct stops.
TW 707 GUM-HNL-LAX-JFK
PA 707 JFK-ACC-DLA-EBB-DAR
