VA has been getting a bit of publicity for its flights that missed Christmas by departing LAX on Christmas Eve and arriving in Australia on Boxing Day. But this man seems to have done the exact opposite, flying AKL-HKG-LHR-LAX-HNL on Christmas Day in order to break the record for the longest...

This trip is mostly focused around Europe, where my family are based. I haven't been back to the UK to visit them since Christmas of 2010.

Hi all
I'm shortly planning to book a Star Alliance round the world business class award (departing September 2017) using KrisFlyer points. I called today and was advised that I need to book all the segments required to meet the 'around the world' requirement/condition at one time. I understand...

Hi All,
I need to depart from Maputo on a RTW ticket. I know Qatar fly from there but trying to get them to book a RTW is like pulling teeth. I normally book them with QF because I have Plat status and most of my RTW flights are on QF metal. I traditionally depart from SA and Qantas have their...
I had planned my trip around a break in work. RTW - 140,000 points and $1300AUD. I worked out my itinerary by choosing places I had never been to. It turned out to be an easy exercise to plan and book.
An early morning flight from Brisbane had me at Sydney International in good time and...
My job allows me to have several months a year off and in that time I usually travel. I find that the One World RTW offers me the widest choice and best value. My only prerequisite in planning was that I wanted to visit places I haven't travelled to before. Travel would be in economy class as...
