How to get between Seoul and Tokyo?
I am trying to find the shortest route using Oneworld carriers between ICN and NRT. Alternatively the shortest route between ICN and ARN in Stockholm. This is part of a LGLOB26 so I have to keep the mileage down.

The shortest route for ICN-NRT is probably via TPE on CX - CX421 goes ICN-TPE, arriving at 11:00, connecting with CX450 departing 12:45 TPE-NRT. Unfortunately the connections aren't so great travelling in the other direction, requiring an overnight stay if you were to go that way. It shaves about 900 miles off going via HKG, which hopefully helps!

What about AA7228? It is codeshare with JAL. Are codeshare flights allowed for RTW tickets?
Then I could go Finnair NRT-HEL-ARN.

Edited to add: Oops, just noticed your ticket is a LGLOB26, not a xONEx., sorry. Ok, the answer is still the same though, with a few exceptions, that do not include JAL.
