Hi
I am about to buy my Oneworld global ticket but have a couple of questions.
1) My trip goes via Europe - North America - South America - SWP - Asia - Europe.
I intend to get a return from Easter Island to Papeete on LAN Chile outside the Oneworld ticket. Will the miles that I have booked in advance, but not travelled (in SWP, Asia and Europe) be redeemable in getting a free ticket?
2) If I decide to stay in SWP for over the 1 year max, does this affect my FFP miles that I paid for but didn’t use? i.e. could I plan out an elaborate mileage guzzling route that I don’t actually take and use the earned miles in future?
3) Do I need to be a member of the BA FFP before buying my ticket?
Thanks
