This is a follow-on from http://www.australianfrequentflyer....sistance-chinese-work-trip-oceania-57626.html as my plans have totally changed...
I'm wanting to go on a holiday from Melbourne to Guam, Saipan, Palau and Orlando, FL. I intend to use the UDSM Guam loophole to get there for 30K miles in J as well as the LifeMiles loophole whereby Guam is part of North America to fly to the continental USA for 50K miles in J too. I was thinking that DisneyWorld in Orlando would be pretty nice and I could wrangle a <24hr "stopover" in HNL along the way by doing something like GUM-HNL-???-MCO.
In terms of routing, I'd definitely like to go via Singapore on the way to/from Guam in SQ J (outside 14 day SQ J window for return flights so another airline required and therefore maybe a different stopover?).
With dates, I would like to leave any time from the night of the 14/02 onwards and get back no later than the night of the 27/02. 2-3 days(ish) in each place would be good with 5-6 days(ish) in Orlando (DisneyWorld needs 4 so I'm told). Maybe something like MEL -> SIN (1 day) -> GUM -> SPN (2 days) -> GUM -> ROR (2 days) -> MCO (5 days) -> GUM (1 day) -> ??? (1 day) -> MEL?
Points balances:
AA: 78K (+12K)
LM: 150K
QFF: 254K (+50K)
SQ: 60K
USDM: 60K
Westpac Altitude: 256K
Amex MR: 32K
This is a major change from my previous request so I've started this new thread (sorry to those who helped with initial advice before).To recap: Guam, Saipan & Palau are now the desired destinations using USDM for MEL/SYD/BNE-Guam (and back) and LifeMiles for Guam-Orlando-Guam.
Looking forward to your assistance (acknowledging the appropriate gratuity being required--negotiable by PM). Thanks in advance!
