Hi everyone. Can someone please help me with the taxes and carrier charges associated with a RTW economy ticket? I don't have the full amount of points yet so I can't try a sample account on the Qantas website.

Here's my question. You get the 35000 Oneworld award and decide to start your trip in Manila. This is a special choice as I have heard that the Phillipines banned carrier charges.
You book a ticket going Manila to Tokyo to London with a land segment then Amsterdam to Hong Kong and then Manila flying on One world airlines all the way. All on the same ticket.
To book this you are taken to the Phillipines website. Once you put the itinerary into the Qantas Phillipines booking engine, will only the first leg of the trip be free of carrier charges or will all legs of the round the world journey be free of carrier charges?
Thanks Peter
