Royal Air Maroc to join OneWorld? [CONFIRMED]

[RooFlyer]

I had a number of rides on them when I had a project in Morocco. I'd equate them then to Sri Lankan Airlines, but their J product is now 1-2-1 reverse herringbone and I expect with OneWorld, so other aspects would have been mandated to have been raised in quality.

 

[KVS]

Is it just me, or are there no J award seats showing as available on AT? I can see plenty of Y availability, but nothing in J on any route.

I was planning to travel to DSS this month with Royal Air Maroc. Obviously that's no longer happening...

AT OneWorld C Award Availability does exist; it is an issue with QF's systems:

Interesting. I assume if you called up Qantas, you'd be able to book a J award as per the JL website availability.

Yes, a QFF agent should be able to book it via a Long-Sell.

AT OneWorld C Award Availability does exist; it is an issue with QF's systems:

C? I had believed AT had moved business class awards to the U fare bucket (from Z).

HOW TO EARN MILES - Royal Air Maroc

Add Safar Flyer account number during booking your ticket and earn miles based on the trip you have with RAM or any of our airline partners.

C?

C is a Cabin Code.

That is correct: http://Help.KVSTool.com/#AT

Finding a QF agent that knows how to do a long sell could be a challenge these days! But good to know that it's technically possible.

what's a long-sell ?

I phoned QF on behalf of a friend today to book an AT award seat from JED to CMN. The QF site won't allow JED as an origin. I told the agent I could see availability when searching CMN-JED return on AT but I only wanted JED-CMN which can't be booked. She queried whether AT could be booked with points and went about looking through her info. After a couple of minute she told me no, sorry, AT flights can't be booked with points. I said that's a first for a oneworld airline, to which she said "Oneworld?" I said yes, AT joined 18 months ago. "Really?" Off she went to speak to someone in ticketing or fares or whatever. When she returned to the call she said I was right but apparently someone hadn't updated the necessary information.

Does that mean you were successful in the end?

Yes. Got there in the end. Much harder than it should have been though.
