some ACIR22 fares from KVS
Australia: AUD12099
Singapore: SGD12830 (~AUD10053)
Hong Kong HKD55410 (~AUD6832)
Phillipines: PHP318763 (~AUD7220)
Indonesia IDR65814000 (~AUD7263)
2. With whom can I book? Or who should I contact?
Can't help you. But as you already know I think if you buy in Australia you will pay the higher of the Australian price and the price of the country of origin. Unfortunately you cannot book this ticket online like you can the Oneworld Explorer ticket
3. The availability of the QF F flights and other F sectors, as I think they would book into A class, as per the ACIRX heading (!)
Yes, the ticket books into A class - so you should be OK. I just checked on KVS - SYD-LAX on 1 July is showing 6 seats available in A class on QF11 and on 2 JUL SIN-MEL has 7 seats on QF10 (both A380 flights)
