Have fun! We'll all be awaiting the TR - perhaps a Pic at SXM too please? How did you book this (look to be a number of oneway fares?) Are some connections, or all are (at least overnight) stops?

Funny this is posted! Just last night I was thinking of doing a QF/JQ/AA run From PER to SXM!

Just waiting for a *C SYD-HNL sale

I tell you what, if I had the cash at the moment I'd seriously consider doing a run like that. Who else is in?

Definately a pic at SXM!



I booked HBA-MEL-LAX, LAS-LAX-SYD-HBA directly through QF.

The rest are one way fares you are correct!

LAX-SEA-SFO is on VX booked as a multi-leg trip.

SFO-ORD-YYZ, SXM-MIA-MCO-DFW-PHX is on AA booked as a multi leg trip itinerary, only connection is MCO-PHX (via DFW) - the rest are stops for a few days.

BOS-JFK-SXM is B6 booked separately

I think the rest were all just one ways booked on the relevant airlines websites, all cheapest non-refundable fares.

Currently in SEA, saw the Boeing plant - definately worth a look if you get anywhere near Seattle!
