Or EWR-HKG on CO and then a slightly longer hop HKG-SGN on one of the many carriers running that route.

Thanks for the info guys. Does anyone have any idea how many miles that should take? They aren't showing flights from BUF to SGN or even EWR to SGN. But I can find EWR to HKG (one leg of the trip) and it shows 60,000 each way. So just that part is 120,000 RT. Would it typically be the same getting to SGN or would it take more than that? I don't want to call them and go through trying to book anything and find out because I wont be actually doing this for a while yet. Just looking for some input from someone that has done something similar before.

Thanks
