    Flying from UK to USA

    Okay I understand straight away if this kind of query shouldn't be asked considering this is an Australian forum, but you guys have always been so helpful before and Oz is my home land :) Anyway, I am looking at travelling from the UK (Glasgow) to the USA where I am going to travelling...

    One Way Business to Glasgow

    Definitely the one I would like to book but not at $7K+ though. MH seems to be the best way to go at the moment. $4200 to LHR then jump on a cheap economy flight to GLA for around the $100 - $120 mark.

    One Way Business to Glasgow

    If that is the case then I will go economy as I can get a BA ticket for $122 instead.

    One Way Business to Glasgow

    RTW Planning Advice

    Ah okay, think I have it sorted now. If when I first fly out, I don't stop over in NRT, I can do the SIN and NRT stopover on the way back. This is what the trip looks like now, and validates in mileage monkey: MNL-NRT-HNL-LAX,SEA-ORD,DCA-DFW-MEX-MIA-LIM-SCL-GIG-LHR-SIN-NRT-MNL Now to sell...

    RTW Planning Advice

    Yeah I am probably more about going to see places I have never seen before. Have no idea how much travel I will do once I finished this trip. It will more and likely be travel within the UK and Europe as I am planning on living in Scotland for some time.

    RTW Planning Advice

    Yep, I am a frequent flyer memeber, just a lowly bronze :) I assume the LHR-SIN-NRT-MNL is all transit with no stop over considering I started in Asia? I am quite happy to skip DBX if it means I reach Platinum.

    RTW Planning Advice

    RTW Planning Advice

    Hi Platy, Cheers for that, yeah just noticed the JNB trip was an xONE5, will more than likely take off from the Manilla one though as it seems to be easier to get to/from Perth. Will also look at removing the LHR - GLA - LHR segments as they are probably a waste and try and sort out the US...

    RTW Planning Advice

    Hi guys, this seems to be the one to look into. Is there a good website where I can start planning the stops? I have used the oneworld Itinerary planner but this looks like it is better suited to oneworld explorer trips. As zan5hin suggested, looks like South Africa is the place to book throgh...
