So much so, that it's a better option in the above intinery in NA alone to do a transcontinental as well:
Code:
-JFK-SFO-LAX-DFW-ANC-DFW-LAX-
For the same reasons, ADL-AKL rather than MEL-AKL at 2022 miles is a good DONEx SWP option.
It is for reasons such as the above that I am almost tempted to jump ship across to EC as if you plan your routes for a SFSC run, BAEC Gold can be quite easy to obtain.

Still, I guess that QFF is likely still to be my programme of choice when I consider where I am likely to be resident in the future, and I don't want a BAEC account closed just because I have decided to move to Australia! (Remember that BAEC closes memberships and prompts member to join QFF when they move to Oz)
