New route:

Leg 1: USA (Los Angeles) -> South Korea (Busan)
Leg 2: South Korea -> Philippines (rural leg)
Leg 3: Philippines (Manila)
Leg 4: Philippines -> Singapore
Leg 5: Singapore -> Israel (Tel Aviv)

Leg 8: Egypt -> Belgium (Antwerp)
Leg 9: Belgium -> Spain (Madrid)
Leg 10: Spain -> Portugal (Porto)
Leg 11: Portugal -> Bahamas (Nassau)

Egypt remains highly unlikely:

and an Israel to Egypt route would also be very very difficult.

Israel also has security alerts:

Air Sinai has daily flights (or 5x weekly, can't remember) from Tel Aviv to Cairo, so it wouldn't be that hard.

I know it is difficult because of the security, but I still want a leg in Israel.

Me too, but only in Jerusalem, kind of like in TARAus 1. I wish the original version would visit Israel and honor 3 religions (Islam, Judaism, and Christianity).
