Hello all,

I plan to get back flying in 07 after some "quiet time".

BKK is where I want to go from DFW. I was looking at the $$$ for a DOne4 - maybe 5. The $2,000 spread to a reasonable place seems to be hard to justify. $8,300 N. Amr vs $6,200 Sweeden. Going to Maurituis seems a little out of the way from DFW.

There doesn't seem to be the spread there used to be. Am I missing something?

Any ideas on the best way to get from DFW to BKK, and enjoy the fruits of my labor while flying?

If I do start out in North America, then if I recall going through LGA to PEK and then down is a great way to go.

The other part of the trip through Europe will be mostly to aquire the most miles possible. Although taking a couple of days here and there won't be bad.

Thanks to WearyBiz for the excellent spreadsheet.

Cheers.
