sorry ,

I looked through the stickies but couldnt find what I wanted and I have been out of the industry for a long time so I honestly dont remember ( I did try the search function but I dont think I refined my criteria enough as I didnt get anything useful )

what I want ideally is something like

AKL QF x/SYD QF x/JNB BA MRU BA x/JNB CX x/HKG CX AKL but for the life of me I cannot recall whether such a circle fare exists


anyone able to put me out of my misery as to whether such a product exists ?

Sure, it's a Circle Trip Explorer - http://www.oneworld.com/ow/air-trave...-trip-explorer

No need. I'm sure it will be of use to others.

It was once called a Circle Indian or a Circle Indian Ocean, which may have been the confusion. Personally, I think calling it a Circle Indian Ocean was more descriptive than a Circle Trip Explorer.

Agreed, you'd think logically having a Circle Pacific would mean having related products called Circle Indian (and maybe even Circle Atlantic!).

To the OP regarding itinerary, I've noticed availability on SYD-JNB and vv can be quite spotty in D/L so you might want to have a play with KVS or EF if you haven't done so already. The timing of JNB-MRU and vv is also fairly inconvenient as regards connecting with other oneworld flights, apart from the fact that it's only 3x a week. Maybe worth looking into the possibility of a return JNB-MRU on MK instead of spending a couple of nights at a JNB airport hotel.

Just finally, there's plenty of scope for side-trips given what you'd be doing wth the Circle Explorer - maybe Tokyo or Ayres Rock or similar?

Maybe some punters were wondering why Africa needed to be included in a "Circle India" rather than just DEL, BOM etc ...
