Having some problems when trying to avoid low sec short cuts when you "avoid" a way point it just sends you deeper into lawless space.

I am pretty sure the 'Prefer safer' selection of the autopilot will keep you out of lowsec completely. If not, play with the slider to favour safety over distance.

But there are indeed highsec islands that are impossible to get to without going through lowsec, nullsec, or wormholes. Are you sure you are not trying to get to one of these systems?

If you click the icon that looks like a A to the left of your route you can choose "prefer safer" which will keep you in highsec as much as possible.

I will throw you down the pipes though so be careful with that during wartime.

If you choose a really quiet lowsec shortcut, you probably won't be bothered.

Scout before betting something big, slow, and expensive on it.

There are some routes where there is one system that is the only hisec route. Avoiding that "choke-point" forces the route into lowsec / nulsec.

For example: Niarja between Jita & Amarr, and Uedama between Jita & Dodixie / Hek / Rens.

There is never a guarantee that there is more than one route between systems.

You can also open the map a set yourself a custom route with way points. That's how I do it

Yes, OP, keep it always in highsec. You are safe here.
