Swiss Round The World (in J) - Book it yourself?

[ComeGroundWithMe]

Hey guys,
I've seen the Swiss RTW offer has been around for ages now, and it's been virtually everywhere...

Swiss, Qantas, Thai, Virgin Atlantic & More! Mixed Economy & Business Class Round World Jul 13-Jun 14
Swiss, Qantas, United, Virgin Atlantic & More Business Class Round World to Over 80 Cities Jul 13-Jun 14

I'm not really a big fan of booking via physical agents, so does anyone know how we can book this RTW ourselves? I've already tried Swiss's website, but SYD isn't allowed as an option... :-|

Bestflights often package these. Try another travel agent

I also looked at doing it online myself last year and couldn't do it. I've used a local agent and they booked it fine.... Enjoy!

I did a RTW J trip last year with United/Swiss/Qantas that I booked via the phone with Bestflights.

I couldn't get the same price online and it did not take long on the phone.

If you must go to a physical agent, go to a RTW specialist.

When I booked my VA/SQ Circle Pacific fare, I could not book online with either airline. Two physical agents could not cope, even though I'd worked out what flights I wanted.

I worked out what flights I wanted by going to each airline's website.

I ended up using Best Flights. Good luck if you need to change flights with them. But on the plus side, I gave them my flights & they gave me the correct price in 5 minutes. There are a range of packages which will give you a range of routings & prices.
