Best value DONE4 for a UK Resident?
Firstly, I have no intention of travelling to India or Thailand to commence my trip! 
Looking at the latest prices on UserMark's starfiles I think the following look the best value given current exchange rates to the GBP.
Egypt - EGP30320 = GBP2700
Poland - USD5000 = GBP2800
Rumania - USD5000 = GBP2800
Turkey - USD4999 = GBP2800
Gibraltar - GIB3099 = GBP3099
Given the minimal cost difference between Egypt and the three countries at USD5000 it seems to make sense to buy in one of those. Does anyone have experience of ticketing in these countries?

thailand and india are only 100 less than the above - at the moment the only place out in front is sri lanka.. 2300
and no i don't have any ideas about ticketing but i would try and get poland as this doesn't seem to restrict your dxb/mid east routes -

But I for one would feel happier purchasing a ticket in somewhere like GIB...and since I am going there tomorrow may well check out the local scene regards RTW's
