I guess I have to back track from Cairns back to SYD then BKK is that allowed? Going HKG to AMS would be VIA LHR on CX or BA. If I go LHR YVR I keep the miles into my AA account?????? I could go BA to ORD or LAX but no AA miles I think.

Anyone know how many miles I would get with this routing? I am working to get EXP this year and have much of July off to do this.

I'm open to ideas from all you world travelers!

Last but not least the cost? 10K?

Thanks

You really should take a close look at the sticky thread up at the top of the forum heading.

DFW-JFK-SYD-CNS-SYD-HKG-BKK-HKG-LHR-AMS-LHR-YVR-DFW
Would work but you would be wasting a lot of possible segments, 4 in North America (but only 2 stopovers allowed because it is your continent of origin), 2 in SWP, 2 in Asia, and 2 in Europe.
For mileage try the great circle mapper.
Prices can be found here.
