The constraints of the xONEx fares are very clearly stated in the rules, at

and direction within a geographic region is not generally a problem (i.e. back-tracking is not generally prohibited). The limitations of nonstop trans-continental flights in North America, Australia, and to/from the UK, and the number of permitted segments in each geographical region (especially the continent of origin) are generally the issues requiring the most strategic planning.
