round the world

This OneWorld RTW is going to be an odd one. When people ask me where I'm going, I've found myself saying 'nowhere in particular'. Its going to be a bit of a hodge-podge of some favourites re-visited (New York, Paris, Istanbul), some quick stops to get some history that I have been meaning to...

Been waiting for another AY Business RTW sale but being pointed towards LX as alternative. Current uncertainty aside, wondering what is best OW business class RTW option ex PER but avoiding transiting asia.

Hi all, I embarked on a journey RTW using Q-points accumulated and wanted to share my experience so far with rerouting due to the Coronavirus outbreak. I'm unfortunately unable to share any details in any other areas just yet, so it seems saying hello first! Look forward to helping out where...

Hi, Getting a cruise across the Atlantic later in the year, so need to fly into Amsterdam and then fly home from somewhere in the US (east coast) or maybe Totonto. Have been researching RTW tickets and some would allow this, but others don't allow this missing leg (cruise across Atlantic). Am I...

We have been collecting points for a number of years - originally flying for work and more recently some trips and a lot of building points through rewards programs. Nonetheless - have managed to get back to Qantas Silver status and over the years have used points for Classic Awards, Upgrades...

Many thanks to all at AFF, I have recently completed my 1st RTW QF Business Class booking on QF frequent Flyer Points. I found out so much from the forums. Inc. You don't have to actually go round the world, you can backtrack. I was lucky enough booking only 6 months out to get three (yes 3)...

Earlier in the year, I wrote about the first half of my Oneworld Award which started in Europe. After a long stopover in Australia, I completed the second half of the trip in November. The final stop of this trip was Vienna, where I am now living for the next year. This is what the itinerary...

Given the current USA embargo on flights to Cuba, How would it be possible to include Havana Stopover as part of Oneworld RTW Flights in 2020 using QFF points.

Hi All, Got a newbie question just wanted to confirm if my understanding is correct. For the Qantas oneworld Classic Flight Reward is the availability the same as the availability of the individual flight segments when searching on Qantas website for classic reward seats? Pretty much everyone...

Hi there - first post :) My partner and I are embarking on a Lufthansa RTW in Business Class early next year. We are flying a combo of QF (domestic), UA, LH and SQ. I am wondering which frequent flyer number would be best to note on this booking to maximise points / benefit? I currently...

I have been buying DONE 4 trips for years now. The weakness of the AUD and the cost of repositioning have me thinking I might have to buy this one out of Australia and let Qantas manage it. Has anyone had experience with QF managing the fare? Do they charge for date changes? Is it worth trying...

As some of you might know, alot of blood, sweat and tears (mostly tears) were spent booking RTW tickets for our family to go to the states to visit our 19yo son at college - I provided him with the itinerary when we were done, and nearly a month later he tells us he is coming home for Summer...

Sorry if this has been already asked. This might seem a simple question, but I'm new to redemptions and this is my first Big one. One of the legs booked on our RTW is YVR-MEX and original departure was 1355 arriving 2115. The new departure is three hours later which I know isn't the end of the...

Help please? I wish to fly out of Marrakech (using OW award) but explore around Tangier. There is no One World airline that I can do this with (Marrakech/Tangier), SO am looking at flying Marrakech to somewhere close in Spain (then overland) back to Tangier. I know it's a lot to ask but does...

Unable to travel recently, have been silver for years but have dropped back to bronze. Would 'regain' silver status this yr with intended normal travel 'however' could alternatively incorporate this 'normal travel' into a one world classic award trip (5 stopovers). I am thinking, as bronze...

OK, so I had the paid help from Award Flight Assist, which was great - Matt was very helpful and insightful, coming up with a great combo of flights for 2x Business and 2x economy RTW tickets for Mid-2020. I gave Qantas Reservations a call to get help, and it was a living hell over three days...

Hi guys, We are planning on a RTW trip (economy 140k FF points each) leaving August 2020 but we plan on going for 8-12 weeks. Do I have to wait until the final return date becomes available to book the full trip or can you book it partially as the flights become available?? I've locked down...
