It would be great if they changed the sked so it worked. EWR-HKG n/s & stopover, then HKG-GUM-DPS same day would be a very attractive routing.

You have to use a third-party booking engine (ie expedia) and include at least one CX flight. See the past threads in the mileage run forum for routing suggestions. (Search for "DPS")
Of course, on CX, you would not earn CO miles for that segment. But it isn't all about miles, is it?
Just kidding! Of course it is!

You can fly HKG-GUM-DPS in a day- sort of.
CO flies HKG-GUM on Mondays and Fridays.
Co flies GUM-DPS on Sunday, Tues and Thursday.
The Monday flight leaves Hong Kong in the evening and arrives Tuesday morning. The GUM-DPS flight leaves at 6pm Tuesday evening. So, if that works for you you could arrive in HKG on Monday, fly out Monday night( arriving early am on Tueday) and then fly to DPS on Tuesday( evening). You'd have to spend a long day on Tuesday in Guam but it is better than an overnight

I want to ticket asap since cx ended their deal of the month & this is a fare match,but I have a few questions.1)we really wanted the direct flt hnl/ewr but we arrive in hnl at 5:15pm & the direct flt leaves at 3:35pm so it would mean an overnight;my question is if we do this,will we have to handle our luggage?This is not an option with all our bali shopping
2)I have enough miles on nw to upgrade 1 way(If available);which would you choose?3)any seat recommendations?Thanks for any suggestions.

-milerunner..
BTW.. this is a great fare to a great place.. especially if you intend to stopover in Guam or HNL..
Looking to get in on this.. Is this upgradable with NW miles?
