My interest is in what is possible right now).
I also note that it really does look like some ft'ers are managing to purchase additional segments for itineraries in the 16-20 segment range.
My question is, how? (Or am I wishfully misinterpreting what I'm reading?)
The additional coupons were only ever (and still are) to increase the number of coupons over the normal ration in each continent. (eg you needed 7 rather than 6 in NA) The maximum number of coupons was not increased. Sorry.
Having said that - where do you need the additional coupons and where is your xONEx originating. Using xONEx coupons for short segments in NorthAmerica is (in my opinion) a waste of a good coupon. Check the prices on the Visit USA pages (on oneworld.com) for the prices of the short segments.
Happy wandering
