Hi all,
First time poster.
Having completed creating our little nest, wife and I think that we should try and do our dream of travelling around the world before we are both in our fifties and waiting for the kids to leave home and thinking of doing it in old age.
In a nutshell, we want to travel around the world, in at least business, preferably First, with one 2+ year old and one baby less than 6 months.
We want to travel to Japan (or somewhere in Asia), go to Moscow, to London and the States, in preferably that order. We can cut out Japan and Moscow, if we can bring the price down (will explain). We want to come back via States. In States, we want to travel to a few cities (NYC, Seattle, LAX). Edit: Wanted to mention that we both can travel year around, if that helps in lowering the price, as we have flexible jobs.
Now, this is the kicker. We want to do this for our flight budget of $15000-$18000 all inclusive. ? Again, that is the maximum we want to pay for our flights.
So what are the options? (Should mention that we are members of QFF, but nothing of note). We do have 100K+ points on a card that we can transfer.
1. Forget about it. Can't do it in that budget?
2. Mix Economy and Business/First? We really don't want to travel Economy.
3. Go to Malaysia or Singapore via premium economy and purchase a RTW fare Business/First from there?
4. Anything else?
Thanks everyone.
Vikram
