And with any luck, I'll soon be able to make the final bookings to make the following routing a reality for next year:
Hopefully in March 2011

Not a lot of folks seem to review a lot of SkyTeam products. From what I've read, SkyTeam RTW isn't as good w.r.t. to routing rules, or mileage requirements, so I'm curious on why you picked it over a oneworld or *A RTW ticket.
Also, looking forward to the next part.

I picked it because it only cost 220,000 CO miles in J, allowed me try out some oddball J products, routed for 31,329 total miles of semi-obscure FlightMemory lines, and let me spend time in Korea, Thailand, and Cape Town.
