We have changed our minds about 4 times now, but think we have settled
on: London - Dubai, stopping over for 4 nights, Dubai - Singapore, stopping
over for 4 nights, Singapore - Brisbane.

We think we will travel with Qantas, what about you. (sorry question mark

Got a friend in Thailand wants us to stay with him for a month, bit unsure about the kids though.
Really giving me a headache working out what route.
Do you know if it is easy to change your flight times? I mean if i go to thai can i change the day i fly out if it is not suitable for the kids?

keep thinking of Bali also.

Default Re: Ok, What route did you - will you take.

I would like to stop over in Hong Kong for a couple of days as my youngest was born there and we came back to England when she was 6 months old.

OH not quite convinced yet, but we have done a stopover in Singapore and a transfer in dubai (too hot for him there ) so I think we really should show her where she was born and lived for a little while.

But it won't be for a while yet as we STILL haven't got a CO (sorry I know I keep moaning but it is over 5 months now )

Default Re: Ok, What route did you - will you take.

When I went down under ages ago, I went London, San Francisco (stayed 2 weeks), Hawaii (another 2 weeks), Fiji (paradise - 2 weeks) and then Sydney. On the way home I stayed at Thailand for a month and wished it were longer. Loved it there! Just don't stay in Bangkok for too long, there are some beautiful islands to see.

We're probably going to stopover in Singapore for a few days, haven't decided for sure yet. Got a friend in Kuala Lumpur so it's another option. Definately going to stop off for 3 or 4 nights as we'll be travelling with two young kids.

we were also thinking about this route- some good deals on internet, we were thinking Manc-Dubai( i or 2 nights) then Dubai- Sing ( 3 or 4 nights) then Sing- Bris .As we have 2 young inpatient children( it was bad enough going to Majorca- are we there yet!!! )we thought a couple of stops would be better- anyone who has been in same boat it would be great to hear what you did and how it went or just stop at Singapore to get it over and done with? oh I'm confused now
let us know how you get on- when do u go?

No stopovers for us . Glasgow - Dubai - Perth with only 2 hrs in Dubai . That's what I did in December as well, prefer to get it all out of the way in one day. No point having a stop over as I'll be on my own with the kids this time too.
