Time will tell.
I wonder what the bet would be on the Black Cats and England , making the final ? a bit like the football or Soccer for the benefit of the Australian audience , like who would of thought that Greece and Portugal would contest the 2004 European championship. Miracles do happen ELO
OK, America and the West Indies will be in the middle of an ex CAI eastbound xONEx.
Things sould work quite well. For both BGI has a non-stop daily flight from JFK, and for POS one of the ex MIA flights tends to start in JFK... both a nice number of miles at just over 2000. Fly QF SYD-JFK and connect, fit the West Indies into the middle of North America, or tack it onto the end and exit North America on the BGI-LGW flight. Which option depends on how much mileage running are you incorporating into the ticket - are you aiming for a nice long LAX-LHR over the Atlantic?
In terms of getting around the islands - I really think you're going to be buying some tickets outwith your xONEx.
And as to the final - I'd guess Australia will be there. But thinking you were from down under, and speaking as a Brit, I could hardly say that could I!
