Route notes
Why this routing works
This 18-week round-the-world ticket starts with a short Europe segment from Malaga to London, then uses an overland break before resuming in Vancouver. From there, the routing builds across North America with Seattle and Calgary before returning to Seattle for the transpacific sector into Tokyo. That sequencing keeps the long-haul flights grouped logically and separates the Europe portion from the Pacific crossing.
The middle of the ticket is structured around a steady eastbound flow through the Asia-Pacific: Tokyo, Sydney, Melbourne, back to Sydney, then onward to Denpasar Bali and Singapore. The double stop in Sydney works as a built-in domestic Australia positioning point around the Melbourne segment rather than forcing a more complex open-jaw inside Australia.
The final stretch continues west through Doha and Nairobi before closing the circle back in Malaga. With 23 nights in London and 16 nights in Nairobi, plus week-long stays in Tokyo, Bali, and a second Sydney stop, this is paced as a longer-duration RTW rather than a rapid stopover chain. In business class, the route is positioned around multiple long-haul sectors and a broad geographic sweep.
Price for this itinerary is listed from USD 16,604 to USD 25,328 in business class, with departure in June within the April to June season window. Overall, the ticket combines 15 listed stop points, one overland segment, repeated transit through Seattle and Sydney, and a full circumnavigation that returns to the starting city.
