They will definitley have to stopover but its not yet definite where.
Maybe they'll even stop a few times.
When Niamh went to Asia she stopped half a dozen times.
To go from here to brazil is a hell of a distance so I wouldnt rule out Spain as a stopover.
EDIT heres a pic of Niamh on a stopover in Tenerife en-route to Asia in '03
It is actually LE Niamh on a fuel stop in Tenerife while enroute to Liberia in Oct 2003. LE Niamh visited Asia in 2002 and went through the Suez Canal NOT via South Africa !

I think that RTE's coverage of the DF's reflects the demand for such coverage in the country, i.e. the average person takes little notice or interst in our DF's unfortunately. And of course a negative story is a better sound bite that a positive one and most people like to hear bad news to some extent, aslong as it doesn't effect them.
Good look to the crew, safe trip I'm proud that they will represent us abroad as excellently as they do at home.
I have to agree with the comments about the coverage by the Media of the Eithnes departure, it was disgraceful to think that a trip like this would get so little coverage, I dont know if this is the same link you have of Tom McSweeneys report but its all I could find, check it out.
