Ha. If you're referring to the super sale run by AA/BA/IB/AY a couple of days ago, then sadly not. I'm in the very, very, very early stages of putting together my next round the world. I don't even have a start date (or month) yet. I chose OSL as I haven't been there and someone upthread (or maybe another) pointed out that DOH-OSL is a fairly long flight on the Qatar 787. Similarly I was also looking at DOH-CMN-DOH as well. But I'm just not sure I want to 'waste' two sectors by going to and from. I'm used to, for example, SSH-AMM-MAD-HEL-LHR and out.

This trip I'm going to want to maximise Qatar J (I'm giving serious consideration to DOH-LAX) and getting on at least two AA 773s so I can hopefully put my eVIPs to good use. I'd also like to try LAN (or is it LATAM) 787s. I see a number of the South American internal flights only have coach, too.

Anyway, as I say, very formulative stage. Hopefully I can make something of it. This'll be my sixth round the world, fourth oneworld Explorer.

Pandaperth, may I ask where you originated your DONE5?
