Route notes
Why this routing works
This routing is built as a 5-week economy itinerary starting and ending in Salt Lake City, with stops in Koh Samui, Jakarta, Brisbane, and a second Jakarta stay before the return. The sequence keeps Southeast Asia together before crossing to Australia, then uses Jakarta again as the final long stop on the way back to the US.
The split stay in Jakarta is the key structural feature of this ticket. Instead of treating Indonesia as a single pass-through, the itinerary breaks it into a 9-night stop before Brisbane and a 13-night stop after, which can make the onward and return flow more practical when linking Southeast Asia and Australia on one ticket.
With 4 nights in Koh Samui, 9 nights in Jakarta, 4 nights in Brisbane, and 13 nights in Jakarta again, the timing is balanced between shorter and longer stops while still fitting within a 5-week window. Departing in August places the trip within the July to September travel period provided for this fare range.
Based on a recent sold trip, this multi-stop itinerary prices from USD 2,129 to USD 2,787 in economy. For travelers comparing complex regional sequencing against separate one-way tickets, this is the kind of route where consolidating the long-haul and interregional legs into one planned order can simplify the overall ticket structure.
