Your approach is the right one. Retore full redirect, restore required incrementals, roll forward from last restore to current time.
As you restore redirect the full image, the new tablespace descriptors (with proper timestamps) will take care of recognizing the fzct that the incrementals have containers not matching the the redirected oones. However, given that the redirect has happened after the incrementals were taken, the uncremental restores will take account of this and you will not have to redirect the incrementals.
