My plans:
StarAlliance paid round the world with Gisela, probably booking eco, confirmable-upgrading longhaule-parts (UA, LH) with miles:
first segment: Switzerland-US/Canada-HNL on that very first Thursday nov-4 (or first segments of this on Wednesday late).
Arriving in HNL on Thursday nov-4 very late (probably UA's last flight out of SFO or LAX or ORD or AC from Canada) .
Isle hoppers with free Aloha return tickets (costing 5'000 UA miles for return).
Anyday suitable day later (latest on Saturday, nov-15) leaving HNL to Asia (showing Gisela Hong Kong, Bangkok and New Delhi for her first time) and have a final one-night stopover in Copenhague (some Carlsberg/Tuborg business friends there always appreciate our visit).
Please: for the Hawaiian Island - I follow you (I know already HNL and Maui - but don't mind revisits)
I might be lucky - if it will be like this year - UA's StarAlliance promotion (take 3 to 6 or 8/9) may run, starting nov-15!?!.
