I've been in Colombo a few days and was intending to leave tonight on a more standard multi-segment ticket when last night I read on FT about the OW RTW price increases throughout Asia from Sept 1 - and I thought I had better stay one more night and quickly kick start a new DONE 3 or DONE 4 -
I was intending to do CMB to BKK plus the bare basics and do a route change later - but...one thing has got me flummoxed;
I am aware of the only two stopovers in continent of origin and
I originally wanted CX to do
CMB-BKK // NRT-LHR-SFO // LAX-NRT-xHKG-CMB
They reckoned I couldn't stopover in Narita on the way back from LAX but I would read it as;
CMB-BKK Asia Segment 1 / one Asian stop
NRT - LHR trans-con
LAX-NRT trans con with second Asian stop
NRT - xHKG Asia Segment 2 / one Asian transit
HKG - CMB Asia Segment 3
Is the problem
1. BKK to NRT surface - NRT is then seen as the second stop?
They have ok'd CMB-BKK-LHR-SFO//LAX-NRT-xHKG-CMB
but I would prefer to have the free standing NRT to LHR re-instated and also be able to stop in NRT on the way back from LAX.
Thanks for your help on this and thanks for such a fantastic OW board. ^ ^
