(GIB or WAW)-LHR-HKG-SIN-NRT-MEL-SYD-AKL-SYD-SFO-DFW-LAS-LAX-BOS-LHR-DXB-LHR-(GIB or WAW)
First, when will take this trip? Can you wait until JAL and others join OW, hopefully in early 2007?
Second, drop the MEL-SYD and LAS-LAX segments and buy separate, cheap tickets for those flights.
If you change the order to Europe-SWP-Asia-North America, you can add lots of miles as you will be able to add 2 more intercontential flights by transiting thru Asia on the way to SWP.
(GIB or WAW)-LHR-SYD-AKL-SYD-PER-HKG-SIN-HKG-NRT-LAX-BOS-DFW-SEA-DFW/ORD-SFO-LHR-DXB-LHR-(GIB or WAW).
