Thanks to a lovely flareup here at the office it now looks like there's no way in hell I'm going to be able to do the first leg of my RTW. Of course, as the fares have skyrocketed out of JNB this means a hefty increase in ticket price no matter what. My only saving grace is that the business is willing to pay for the added cost of the ticket, but since at this point it's not exactly a bargain to be ex-JNB is there an alternative routing that might be more advantageous? I'm inclined to just shift the dates around and keep things as they are as I've found a great fare to and from JNB on BA in F and also the scheduling to/from JNB works out well for me. But, I'm still very new at this so any suggestions are MOST welcome.
