Just came back from a RTW 'Oneworld' 280K award trip (2 months OS).
Just one thing I want to say about Qantas and their Oneworld Partners - EXCELLENT
In the process of planning the next one.
Yeah i did a 140k award in 2011 which was a good base for a 2.5 month RTW trip... Would like to do a 280k in the future, already got the itinerary sketched out, just need the points now...

I last did one in 2006...have saved enough now for another one for 2 of us in July 2014....starting the planning now and doding some dummy runs but coming in at much more than 280K ...what did your itinerary look like
Gold Coast – Sydney – Singapore – London – Berlin (Hilton Berlin) – Venice (Hilton Molino Stucky) – Prague (Hilton Old Town) – Dresden (Hilton Dresden) – London (Hilton Park Lane) – Barcelona (Hilton Diagonal Mar Barcelona) – Boston (Hilton Boston Downtown/Faneuil Hall) – Miami – New Orleans (Hilton St Charles Ave) – Dallas – Brisbane.

5 stops of 24 hours or greater, and can be open jaws (so arriving and leaving from different places) but the land leg distance between where you stop and resume is included in the 35,000 mile caluclation....
Interesting, thanks for sharing.
I'm considering a 280k Award and keen to know some more info please; such as :
- How far ahead did you have to book your flights ?
- Which airlines would you recommend ? Which would you avoid ? Did any specifically stand out ? Which airline provided the best overall J experience (seat, food, lounge, etc)?
Thanks.
If you combine classes e.g. some legs in Y and some in J. Does that reflect in the points cost?
