    I'll start working on Mrs Hound tonight..fantastic way to "reinvest" so too speak, some of the divvy.
    Good deal - doing the same ...but i hate planning that far ahead

    Least that trip would show you that those A380's are far superior to the over hyped Dreamliners

    just my humble opinion and I daren't say I reckon Flying Singapore a better experience than Air NZ

    Ditto, but Vienna for me, via LAX and Munich for a similar price.

    Did this route some months ago. Nothing wrong with the flights (though the LH flight from LAX to MUC features only mediocre service (but a modern plane). Prepare for long waiting times in LAX unless you hold a US passport. You will need to "immigrate" into the US of A (and if its just for half an hour or so), you will be fingerprinted and photographed (with all data stored forever in US systems) and, if the often unfriendly and arrogant US immigration staff have a bad day (I understand, they often have), than you might miss your connection flight.

    Ah yes - remember to get your ETA in time.

    If any possible I go through Asia to Europe. Only going through Heathrow (if you need a connection flight) is worse than going through LAX (or any other US port)!

    Anyway - good luck and enjoy your flight!

    Singapore airlines economy seats on their A380 are a very generous 19 inch width...very nice, hope Mrs hound is reading this.

    Did the same route last year so my ETA should still be current and allows me to go through LAX just a bit quicker

    It get me the beat up on LAX, stuff of urban legend, ETSA is the key to the US even if in transit..as someone who goes through LAX every month for the past 14 years I have never had a problem with their officials...

    JFK, Heathrow and Charles de Gaulle are the worst for service and luggage wait time in particular.

    Easier travelling via the east to Europe and return via the west - USA - for travel and time zones.
