Best to get a good travel agent
If you are buying business or first class fares a number of fares with AA in combination with EK and Etihad are considerably cheaper than buying a AONE or DONE. You can avoid the luxury tax by originatig in CMB where such fares are even lower by 30%. Foer some reason RTW fares are quite high from CMB.
I am flying on a FULLY FLEXIBLE F class fare out of CMB: CMB-DXB-LHR (EK) ORD -MCO -JFK-LHR (AA) DXB-CMB (EK) for around $4800 including Tax at current exchnge rates.
