I wonder whether the 24 hour limit differentiates between transit and stop overs. This will make it particularly attractive as it allows back tracking as well

Quick trivia question...the first one to know (or even have been to) all these airport codes gets a free drink...
The following routing is possible with this RTW ticket - all flights in business class, total cost (excluding taxes and fees) about 3,300 Euro:
CAI-xNBO-SEZ-xNBO-xJNB-CPT-EZE-xPTY-CCS-xPTY-UIO-xPTY-SJO-xPTY-xGUA-xIAH-NAS-xIAH-HNL-xMAJ-xKWA-xKSA-xPNI-xTKK-xGUM-ROR-xMNL-xKUL-MLE-xDXB-CAI
If you want to see how that looks on the map... http://makeashorterlink.com/?D2CF12484
Admittedly, I like exotic locations and beaches... http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif.
I'd probably never really do this one, it's just to show that this RTW seems to offer some interesting routings not possible with the other carriers...</font>

I know most of the codes. What city represents the following codes
xKWA-xKSA-xPNI-xTKK
Can you also create another add on in your magnificent website indicating airlines?

You'd probably need to pay for a few stopovers in Micronesia as these flights don't go on a daily basis and you could not leave again within 24 hours.
If you don't really have THAT much interest in Micronesia, you could instead take Air Pacific from HNL and go to Australia through Fiji, and perhaps also get to see the Solomon Islands on the way.
While typing this up, I realized there aren't even any KLM/NW or Malev flights and Europe is not included. Well, I guess with 40,000 miles, one could find a bunch of other itineraries that might make more sense http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif.

I booked this fare last summer in BKK thru the Continental GSA and found it great if being used for leisure travel.
My routing was BKK-X-KUL-JKT surfaceDPS-xGUM-xNRT-xEWR-BDL.
I then did a Winter break of BDL-xEWR-UIO-xPTY-SDQ-EWR
and am set for the summer with MAD-AMS-DEL-SXR-xDEL-MAA-xKUL-JKT-xKUL-BKK.
Since the majority of the carriers don't have First Cabins, the C fare (and this was the 35,000 miler) was just right.

I paid about $4250.00US with taxes and one extra segment ($100) included--of course that was last summer's exchange rate.
