For peace of mind I want to confirm that all I need to do to change any flight dates (I don't start until May next year but I want to get it priced ASAP to take advantage of the favourable rates) is email Cathay at Tokyo with the revised dates once I've taken my first flight. I've included a number of dummy dates as part of the booking but obviously I can't set these beyond a year from now. Once the first flight is taken I should be able to change these to any dates as long as they are within 12 months of the first flight. Is this correct?
No need to e-mail Cathay Tokyo to change dummy dates. I made date changes (from dummy dates to open dates) by calling the Cathay 800 number in the U.S. The agent was well versed in RTW ticket rules.
BTW, I changed my dummy dates to open dates before the first flight.
Perhaps I just had a good agent. YMMV.
