What's a typical RTW fare in Y/J/F on oneworld? I would think close to 3k per person in Y and much more in J/F. I am considering it but given the recent news of AA/AC devaluation on award and earn rates, I'm not sure if it's even worth maintaining the status.

As for one way fares, most of the affordable ones are regional in Asia and LCCs only, so status/miles is not really relevant.

As for my itinerary, I've already ticketed in JL J/F from Asia to Canada

Will use the 200k from Middle East to Australia then to Asia, on EY F (380) and QF/CX J

Then just need to get to AUH/DXB one way from Canada at some point, but I have 10 months to worry about that using AC/AS/AA miles.

Anyways, what do you value more in terms of my original question. 11k Marriott points or $55 cash back, or pay $180 for 11k Aeroplan/Avios ?
