Hey AFF,
Now my Asia trip this year is fully planned and booked, I am moving my attention to my US trip in 2015 (early, I know, but I like to be organised so I can pounce on sales as they come up). More importantly, I was considering (like a post just put up) either doing the direct MEL-LAX on QF or VA which you can pick up Y for ~$1200 depending on the dates, or the MEL-NAN-LAX option - but while checking out Matrix ITA this morning I saw some pretty interesting routing on an EK flight option.
My question is, if I wanted to have a lot of fun and do some interesting layovers in some cities that it is unlikely I would ever get a chance to go unless I was passing through, what would AFF recommend? I am sure a few on here have done some obscure runs before...
At the end of this it is my intention that the trip will leave from the east coast; MEL or SYD or BNE, end up on the US west coast, then leave from the US east coast and fly back to the AU east coast, though I would't be opposed to doing the same thing but in reverse... I am open to all interesting suggestions.
