Can anyone tell me the ex-Aus pricing on a circle pacific (oneworld) or equivalent?

Thanks

Also if available any pricing ex-NZ or elsewhere available?

I cant seem to find it online anywhere.

As usual ex-HKG is the cheaper option.

Great, thanks.

(Flight to west coast USA - direct pricing better!).
 
As usual ex-HKG is the cheaper option. <snip>...

Wow - that's not just cheaper, that's ridiculous.
On my last DONE4 I positioned to Sth Africa to take advantage of the pricing differentials (and to have effectively additional holidays before and after the RTW trip)

I guess if I do a DCIR fare I'll be taking a cheap positioning flight to HKG first.

That is huge difference, I was pricing up direct flights to YVR in J and comparing with CIR fares - yes a positioning run to HKG then commencing travel would be far cheaper

Just wondering what's the longest permitted stopover for a CIR fare?
Edit - found it. 12 months to complete routing.
Hmmm...very interesting...
 
Quick question - which of the OW carriers' call centres is "best" to book CIR fares?
Looking at my itinerary it looks like CX -> Alaska or AA -> QF
 
Use AA RTW desk to create it for you, then ticket with AA HKG.
PM or reply if you want their email.

And you are doing exactly what I did for flights to YVR. Cheap MH to HKG in Y with paid upgrade on departure to J, then DCIR to YVR and back via SYD. Stop in PER and pick up back up next year for another trip.

Thanks for this, PM sent. Yep, thinking of the same thing, will leave that last leg to HKG open for a later date.
 
Hey Cynicor
inbox is full. Could I get that email address of the HK American Airlines office off you?
cheers
 
Thanks for letting me know, fixed that now.

AA HKG: AARES(AT)WALSHEGROUP(DOT)COM

Give them the Ref number and they need a hardcopy of the credit card and a form filled in, like Mindpearl in JNB. No one has yet defrauded that card so they must be trustworthy enough...
 
For those who have booked DCIRxx tickets, on the OW website it says this:

[h=2]Terms and conditions[/h]
  1. If an aircraft serving part of your itinerary does not have a first or business cabin, customers will be booked into a lower-class cabin. On American Airlines services within/between the U.S. and Canada, where no business class is offered, business-class passengers may book and travel in first class subject to availability. Mileage and tier points can only be accrued from eligible fares in the cabin flown.


What fare bucket needs to be available on a 2 class domestic AA flight to be booked into the F cabin? If it's A, does that mean you will earn F SCs?
 
A class generally, will earn F SCs, yes.

This is one of the keys to getting WP on a single DONEX
 
... and don't let an over-zealous travel agent book you onto the QF codeshare, thinking they're doing you a good deed. They book into the D fare bucket, and hence less SC and points earn.

Same seat and service obviously, but so much less satisfying!;)
 
Is it possible to change the itinerary once travel has commenced? in particular pushing back dates of later flights (to be 1 year from first flight, not ticketing)?
 
Date changes should be able to be made free of charge, even after travel has commenced.

Changes other than date, time, carrier, and inventory will require a reissue, and should incur a surcharge (which, if same as xONEx tickets, would be 125USD).

I've never needed to make changes to an xCIRx fare before, so I'm extrapolating from xONEx fares here, where I've invoked the above rules on several occasions.

Add: Checked rules on Expertflyer, and above rules do indeed apply to xCIRx's.

How many FF points would this accrue in J & F?.

I'm on the phone, but unless you are referring to a specific routing up-thread (is there one?) it will depend on the route and carriers involved.
