I just got my flight details for my upcoming travels to Indian and Japan.

Basically, it looks like this:

I will first (1) fly from Singapore to Chennai. After one week there, I will fly back to Singapore (2), wait for a few hours, and then continue (3) to Tokyo. After 2 weeks in Japan, I will fly back to Singapore (4) and immediately continue to Chennai (5). After another week in Chennai, I will then return to Singapore (6). And stay there for a short while

The great thing about having to make a stopover in Singapore and not being able to fly directly from Chennai to Tokyo is that I will get to fly with the Airbus A380 from Singapore to Tokyo and back. I love Singapore Airlines!
