I hvaen't looked at this for a while. But you can only have 4 segments in Asia.
THis is how i would do it.
OSL-DOH
DOH-MEL
MEL-NRT
NRT-KUL/CGK
KUL/CGK-NRT
NRT-DEL
DEL-HND
HND-JFK
JFK-SFO ---you can add Latin America or North America routing here. You get max of 6 segments. But you only get 1 transcon and 1 entry to Latin American. In your case add 5 segments in Ex: JFK-EZE-GIG-DFW-ANC-SFO
SFO-DOH
DOH-<Add European destination here>
<Added European Destination>-DOH
DOH-OSL
Should total to 16 segments.

Sure it does. It was just a suggestion. That is why i mentioned Latin American or North America. routing. There is also so much potential within North America as well. I would ensure to max use of the each region. Like MEL is the only destination in the Pacific region and no segments within the ANZ and S. Pacific region.

Thanks, I guess I could also do OSL-LHR-CPT, CPT-DOH-HND
On my return I would like to maximise my transit at LHR before going onto DOH. Does any one recall how many flights a day BA used to fly LHR-DOH and approximate times?
As a separate question, if you are in transit and have bags that have been through-checked onto the next flight, is it OK to leave the airport (provided visas etc are OK) if you have a long transit time (or will this result in your bags being taken off the flight)?
