A while back in speaking to an agent about a RTW ticket departing from Asia, he
informed me that the rates of the tickets are based upon NUC’s (Neutral Units of
Currency?). I believe the NUC price stays the same so the value of the local currency
(which fluctuates) is multiplied by it’s worth to the NUC to get the total in the local currency.

As it was explained to me: If the RTW ticket is 4,000 NUC and 1 NUC is worth 1,500
Korean Won, the total price of the ticket is 6,000,000 Won.


FYI - He also said the NUC is practically equal to the US $.

Question: Is there a listing of the NUC values for every country? If so, one could
determine where the lowest priced ticket would depart from.
