Prob our last big holiday together before he goes to uni and we are fleeced for money and can't afford it!

Hi,

I think the above route could amount to an awful lot of hours spent on the aircraft. It takes the best part of two days to get to Australia. Such a routing too could really eat into your days visiting these cities.

Perth and Sydney are about 3000 miles apart; again flying between the two would take a fair number of hours.

I would reconsider SF and perhaps go via Singapore/Hong Kong instead on the way back to the UK.

The US now also charge each person $14 US for their online ESTA application
which is mandatory.
