I have booked several of these in the past and found it very beneficial to book though AA to avoid higher taxes and fuel charges.

It would be good to hear definitively on this! If they are, which is now the "best" carrier to try to ticket on in order to keep such charges down? Thanks.
I believe you best bet is still AA. Certainly I'm getting charged plenty less on top of the base fare for an ex South Africa itin compared with the online tool (which I imagine was ticketing via BA).
TO find out actual taxes AA will charge I think you'll just need to call the RTW desk and get it priced.
