Here must be the shortest RTW trip. ( theoretical only )

Gla - Yvr - Vvo - Gla

3 segments, each about 5K miles, and a total of 14,127miles

Ideal for those of us who like Winter Landscapes.

That is a very interesting schedule for me. And, with the exception of KRW I will use these flights as often as I can. Unless of course Jet2 charge an arm and a leg which would make them unattactive.

I had only had one flight on the stretc...

jetblue497,

LY is Lithuania, Latvia is YL.

Right. - but I was quite close !

Well done on the " CCCP- " ( )
That's a good one to have.

The stopover flight was cheaper than the direct Easyjet flight, ( but not when you include my overnight hotel, but I got to go shopping for some Salami ! ), and it also got me back at a sensible time as opposed to the EZ landing at 03:00am. Anyway, we...
