Best way to fly JFK > CMB > MLE > JFK Business
Hi all:
Would love any and all flyer talk pro input on this itinerary as the least expensive business class options happily seem to include Qatar and Etihad. Departing JFK around March 24 (date flexible), need to be in Male on April 2, then leaving Male April 10 for return to JFK. Need to book ASAP. TIA.

JFK-FRA-SIN-MLE on Singapore is what I am doing. You just need to stay up thru the layover in Frankfurt, after that you can crash hard and wake up early morning in Singapore. It's approximately a 4 hour layover at Changi, which will be a breeze in that airport with all of the options, and then a 4 hour hop over to MLE.

You might do better to make it a NYC-CMB return.....with a separate booking for the (short) flight to/from MLE.
CheapestIve seen on a quick ITA search is... ta dah! Kuwait Airlines at $3296... but many folks would suggest it isn't worth even that much.... AA and UL come in a bit over $4k..... and the AA booking allows the EY A380 to and from AUH....

Thank you! Great advice re booking the MLE flight separately! Was looking at the AA and the EY A380 now appears significantly more expensive. Would love to keep the tix around 4K. Any suggestions for best alternative option? Thanks again!
