Trying to figure out ONE4 itin...help
I have a friend who lives in NYC and wants to buy a ONE4 ex-Australia. Must visit japan on the way to NA (and not on way to/from Europe).
Problem is this:
- if routing is MEL-NRT-JFK-LHR-MEL that won't be allowed as LHR-MEL counts as going via Asia and it would be going to Asia for a second time.
- routing could be MEL-NRT(maybe via HKG)-LHR-JFK-MEL but can't go to NRT and LHR during same 'trip' - he lives in NYC.
- could buy a ONE5 and go MEL-NRT-JFK-LHR-???-MEL - but I don't know a OW routing from LHR-MEL other than through Asia(BKK, HKG, SIN).
Any help appreciated.

Oops - I found LHR-JNB-MEL(via PER) - so could do it on ONE5.
But any way to do what is required on ONE4?</font>

the above is a legitimate routing. You may enter asia twice as long as one is simply a transit from Europe to the SWP.

I thought that was only true for GLOB34 not ONE4?:

I don't think the rule you quote above is relevant here, it simply "forces" the extra continent if one was attempting not to exclude Asia altogether but fly SWP-Europe-- not what's being attempted here.
