And of course there was the best BOAC route flying to SYD via LAX and HNL. The 'Supers' operated that route until it closed. It's worth noting that 747 classics used to do the 'Milk Run' to SYD. I believe it used to be LHR-ZRH-THR-BOM-HKG-DRW or MNL - SYD-MEL. I couldn't even work out how long that one took as opposed to the BAH-SIN route. I remember slipping in DRW before a cyclone blew the hotel down then BOAC stopped flying there.
