My next trip, 3 continents, 6 countries in 30 days

After several months planning and modification, the trip has been finalized, but due to current conflict in Syria, I break the trip into 2 parts, with 1 week back to China in btw.

Countries will be visited: Kazakhstan, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia, Cyprus, Tajikistan. In addition, 2 more regions with separate immigration: Hong Kong and North Cyprus.

Airlines will be involved:

Lufthansa A340 first and A 330 First, A 330 and A 321 Business

Air China B747 First

BMI A321 business

Tukish 738 Business, and 1 segment on 738 Economy

Cathay Pacific A330 Business regional

Royal Jordan B737 Business and economy

Air Astana economy

With exception of Air Astana, all tickets were issue with miles, but I will share the booking procedures later.

As for hotels, almost every city I visit have major chains except Pafos, Cyprus, so not a issue.

Some of these countries are not popular, so I will share what I see when I come back. Personally, I think the trip will be more interesting than Tahiti.

    I absolutely love your itinerary!

    I will be very interested to hear how this trip goes, what experiences you have…Please post updates on it. I have been to all the popular places too (everywhere in SE Asia, Japan, China, Europe, South America, USA), but have not been to many places you have listed and some of them are next on my list. This type of trip would really excite, not having the faintist idea of what to expect. I hope you have a wonderful trip!

    Have a safe and enjoyable trip, Troy!

    Due to the current situation in Syria (and to a less content in Jordan), I have to cancel my Syria+Jordan trip in the last minute.
