This is all in economy, but I'm a recently graduated college student in debt! I'll deal with it for not having to pay close to (or more than) $4,000 for this routing! I decided to do this trip at the beginning of April, applied for the AMEX Plat 50k bonus, and transferred 25k SPG points I had previously accumulated, and after just one week, I had banked the 75k needed. I then immediately booked my flights and will begin my trip only 6 weeks after I booked the ticket! (I feel like even if I had been able to get another credit card to get up to 100k or 120k banked, I would have had a hell of time with availability anyway...)

Less than a week before departure I managed to book my first miniRTW at the last minute!

SYD-BKK TG F
BKK-ZRH LX F
ZRH-TXL LX J (STOP)
TXL-MUC LH J (STOP)
MUC-BOS LH F

140,000 aeroscam points and $362 for my "free" ticket. Plus $35 fee so that I could be put on hold for an hour while the agent's computer "froze" and we had to start again. Thankfully my flights were all still there!

Nice. May I ask if it's in November? I've tried for hours on the phone to come back from Tokyo to either YYZ or YUL mid November... just curious.

No, it for Feb 2012. Used the ANA tool extensively to plan that trip.

Just booked 2 F awards for next year:
SFO-MUC LH F
MUC-GVA LH Y stop
GVA-ZRH LX Y
ZRH-BKK TG F 16 hour layover (spa and lounge, of course)
BKK-NRT TG F&C stop
NRT-SFO NH C
I think C for intra-Europe and F for BKK-NRT are likely to open up later on, for no extra charge.
With no NH F availability and not interested in UA F (I've tried it) I considered NRT-ICN OZ C, ICN-LAX OZ F, LAX-SFO UA but at 9 hours longer trip and two connections, I think I'm willing to go NH C.
Who knows, maybe the Business STAGGERED might be on the route by next year??
Taxes $164.40 + $30 booking fee and 120000 miles each.
Thanks to everyone on this board for your help!

Hello, this is my first post, but I have been reading Flyertalk off and on for about 5 years.
My itinerary for a trip in October (in J, except segments to/from YOW in Y):
YOW-IAD (UA)
IAD-NRT (NH) [stop]
NRT-HKG (NH)
HKG-SGN (UA) [point of turnaround]
SGN-BKK (TG)
BKK-IST (TK) [stop]
IST-FRA (LH)
FRA-EWR (LH)
EWR-YOW (UA)
Total: 100,000 miles + $102.87 taxes and fees + $30 booking fee
My overseas connections have 1 day stops (<24 hrs) in those cities.
I used the ANA reward tool (with no ANA points). It took about 15 minutes for the agent to book the flights, but due to hold time and computer issues, I was on the phone for 1.25 hrs.
Thanks to everyone on here for the helpful information they have posted for the mini-RTWs.
