How should I fly?

I'm buying a RTW in First Class for next year, and I want to go to New York and Santiago mainly starting out from Hong Kong. Where else should I stop and what exact route? Many thanks!

This is quite a open-ended question. What other continents/cities would you be interested in visiting? If NYC and SLC are the main interests then you should probably go with AONE3. Do you belong to any FF program? Do yu need to maximize miles? You can have 4 flight segments in Asia, 6 in NA and 4 in SA.

Perhaps you can enlighten us by your mysterious posts on the same subject.

Where should I go Jan-Feb 2005
2005 First Quarter RTW-suggest routes!

And I like this one about you selling your apartment in Singapore and want to know what is the best 5* hotel in Orchard Road... If you have ever lived in Singapore.. you'd certainly know what the best hotel is. You certainly don't need to ask anyone...! Curiously, where exactly was your apartment?
Best 5* hotel in Orchard Road area, SIN

Is it just me, or do I think that it's very unladylike for a woman to say something like :

Just some observations on a very dull Christmas Eve that's all.

The minimum for an itinerary that includes South America is a four continent OWE (xONE4), unfortunately.

I had no idea I ever started those threads. At all.

And I asked because I wished to know everyone else's suggestions, that's all. The apartment was one in Admore Park near the American Club, by the way.

I don't get it either. Guy Betsy what do any of those threads you reference have to do with skye at all? I'm all for personal attacks when people post repetitve, annoying questions but this just seems bizzare.

For some reason the links Guy Betsy listed aren't working correctly for me now. I believe these are the threads to which he is referring:
"Skye world tour":
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=361497
"Where should I[Skye] go in Jan-Feb 2205":
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=357956
"I, too, am thinking of a RTW starting from HK. Suggestions on what route to take, anyone?"Post #85
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=338248
"2005 First Quarter RTW":

Becasue skyestarted repititious threads which she doesn't seem to recall?
It's not a personal attack on an individual but something doesn't seem right and I'm just enquiring that's all.

Personal attacks involve lots of name calling and accusations. Hardly any of this has been mentioned.

And BTW, the links in my post above now work. I was putting in "POST" instead of "THREAD" in the hyperlinks.

I'm sorry, I'm a very busy person, and I forget things easily, if that matters at all. If you don't want to assist me/distrust me, I'll leave it at that.

I'm with Guy Betsy on this one.

In my mind, things don't add up for the OP. Experienced flyer, but doesn't have a clue where to go and forgets about the other trips that s/he'd planned. Terribly busy person, but not too busy to flirt with certain now-banned, multi-ID posters.

The Internet is a curious place. Some posters are what they claim to be, others are not, and each of us can choose to either believe a poster, to not believe a poster, or to withhold judgment.

To me, the sum of the OP's posts just doesn't add up.

Well, I am now, too. Clearly a problem with the links in GB's original post.

Me too 100%. Skye, stop wasting people's time-- no one here is buying it.

And as far as "I had no idea I ever started those threads. At all" and "I'm a very busy person, and I forget things easily"

Don't be ridiculous-- you think you're dealing with morons?

I see all of your points, but do you ALL have any idea how old I am? I am happy to provide my Marco Polo number if you simply refuse to believe me.
