oneworld - Reworked RTW

Thanks to all of you who helped me with the initial routing of my AONE3. However, due to time constraints and some changes in my schedule (upcoming meetings in LAS and YVR) I had to rework my iteniary. The new one will be

WAW-LHR-SIN-HKG-NRT-HKG-JFK-DFW-ANC-DFW-LAS-DFW-YVR-LHR // DXB-LHR-WAW

Will it work?


Thanks in advance

The itinerary looks valid to me, subject of course to your intended dates, given that service to ANC is seasonal.

It is valid, by why would you choose a surface sector LHR//DXB instead of flying LHR-DXB-LHR? It is a nice flight in A, and you are within the allowed segments. The ANC service is operated mid-June to mid-September (roughly); you can't use an AA codeshares on AS. Rumor has it that the ORD-ANC flight from past years will not be resumed in 2005 but might be an AS codeshare, hopefully DFW-ANC will be on AA metal but that remains to be seen. At the moment it is in the AA schedule and bookable so your ticket can be issued and AA will reroute you if the flight schedule is changed.

Thanks.

Just called the AA desk and they told me that you couldn't travel in F on CX 830 HKG-JFK on a AoneX ticket. Is this correct?

Hey Bowman.
FYI On 4th Jan, I travelled on CX 830 from HKG to JFK as part of an AONE6. I was booked on the AA codeshare flight which was AA 6090. I travelled in the first cabin, and my booking was in A class.
Now either the AA person is highly knowledgable, and is telling you you can't book in F because you need to be booked in A with an AONE ticket; or they are not. Best wishes with the AA desk. John. edited for spelling error

Chatter on the board seems to suggest that CX are keeping A0 on this route, though it may open up closer to the time. Plan to to via YVR and keep trying closer to the time.

I quite like the trip via YVR, soaking up the time in CX F.

It's F4 A0 already. (travelling in June). Looks rather disappointing.

Actually AA is showing 2 daily flights ORD-ANC for the summer, in addition to the one AS metal flight. Still just the one DFW-ANC flight, although with AS entering the SEA-DFW business alongside their almost-partner AA, with through-plane service from DFW to ANC, I honestly wouldn't be shocked to see AA reconsider this service in future. The ORD connections to the east coast are important to both AS and AA during cruise season. Once the oil and gas biz re-heats in Alaska I expect to see more Texas-Alaska nonstops in the offing.

Correct. I am booked on a ORD-ANC-ORD mileage run in June.

OT: Both of these flights are operated by 757. Seatguru suggests what First seats to avoid but doesn't make any particular recommendations for seats to go for. Anyone got a recomendation? My priority will be sleep as I am doing LHR-ORD-ANC-ORD-SJU-MIA-LAX-HKG-CTS-HKG back to back.

I'm doing ...ANC-ORD-SJU... on 18 JUN. I picked my seat (2B) based on FEBO, not that there's much of it on this leg. :(

I'll miss you by 24 hours!! I leave ANC on 19 June.

How can you guys be going to Alaska in June and not staying for the solstice? Major big deal. Reverse your routes - c'mon, now.
