Please help improve this routing. I especially don't like how long the Vancouver-Incheon leg is, and there isn't First on SQ.

I'm open to all suggestions, including adding more places to go.
First of all, this itinerary is very short even for an xRWSTAR1 so you could add a _lot_ of places. In fact, it's short enough for a Star-Lite (a) if the Star-Lite is available ex-China and (2) if you're interested; the Star-Lite is only offered in Y. (You don't actually say what class you're interested in, but your comment about no F on SQ for YVR-ICN is a hint.)

Second, YVR-ICN in J on SQ is not bad at all. The SpaceBed or SkyBed or whatever they call it is quite nice.

Finally, since you're asking for help, it might be good to make it easier for people to help you by putting your proposed itinerary in a form that could easily be pasted into the GCM, for example. That means looking up the airport codes and writing PVG-BKK-SIN ... etc. Also, another handy little convention that some of us here use is to put stops in CAPS and transfers in lower case (PVG-bkk-SIN-LHR-lis-FCO ... etc.) The more information you give us, the more we can help you.

cheers,

Henry
