Route notes
Why this routing works
This round-the-world routing starts in Atlanta and moves east through Europe before continuing to Turkey, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Tokyo, then returning to Atlanta. The sequencing keeps the trip directional rather than backtracking, which is useful on a three-week schedule with eight stop cities.
Portugal is split into Lisbon and Porto, with Lisbon marked as an overland arrival and Porto as the next flight point. That setup works well when you want one non-flight segment inside a broader air ticket while keeping the long-haul sectors focused on larger jumps between regions.
Most stops are short and consistent at two to five nights, which fits a fast-moving RTW structure in economy. The routing clusters Europe first, then steps onward through Asia in a clean progression, helping keep connections and timing straightforward across multiple regions.
With departure in September and a total duration of three weeks, this itinerary is built for travelers who want many cities on one ticket rather than long stays in any single place. The published range of $4,000 to $5,237 places it in the mid-range for a multi-stop economy RTW covering Europe and Asia from the US.
