I always have a systemwide paper-version of the actual UA-timetable and downloaded versions of LH's and SR's timetables (Acrobat Reader). If I am booked on another *A-partner on one of my rtw-trips, I will defenetly look for a time-table paper-version of that carrier too.
And in add I have (in my Palm III) on file detailed informations of *Alliance-, SR/Delta-, Priority- and Diners-Club-lounges of all airports worldwide that are of interest to me.
