Most indirect routing
What is the most indirect routing you have taken?
From what I have heard they charge you from point of begining and ending point. In otherwords stop overs on connections do not count.

I could not get a seat heading east out of Australia the week after the Sydney olympics. So the only route available to me to RDU was BNE-SYD-FRA-LGW-RDU. Took me 44 hours, involved 7 consecutive airline meals and very little sleep.
This was a paid fare and ended up cheapest as a OneWorld Explorer MONE4 (back when they were booked in M). But the routing was not selected for any reason other than availability on the day I needed to travel.

Most indirect routing? Well in about 10 days time I'm going to Malaga for a friend's wedding... HKG-SFO-ORD-ANC-DFW-LAX-MIA-JFK-LHR-DXB-LHR-Malaga... Obviously that's as part of an AONE, so maybe that doesn't count for your poll...

I will shortly be doing LHR-CAI-LHR-ORD-ANC-ORD-LAX-JFK-PHX-JFK-HKG without any breaks of more than a few hours primarily to keep my Diamond card this year. That's about 56 hours for something that could be done LHR-HKG in 12 or so.

I flew HKG-NRT-HKG-LHR-ACC-LHR-DXB over 3 days not too long ago.
Most indirect (domestic) mileage run was probably AUS-DFW-STL-TPA-ORD-PDX-DFW-AUS or AUS-ORD-PVD-ORD-SJC-ORD-PVD-AUS
