I have a solid idea of where I want to go and when I would take my first two flights.

Is that a restriction with the planner only or will I have the same problem when I call AA?
If I were to travel to SEZ via somewhere other than DOH, do you think that would help?
IIRC, the ATW desk is not open at the weekend. Also, purchasing a RTW ticket from AA is a three-step process - set it up with the ATW desk, it then goes to the Pricing Department who price it up, then you phone back in to pay for it. It is unlikely that your itinerary would be priced over the weekend.
As we've said before, once you have taken the first flight then making changes is easy. Changes to ticketed points will incur the USD125 change fee, plus any upward adjustment to the taxes, fees and charges (a downward adjustment would result in a refund to you).
The booking systems can only see so far into the future. When I set up my DONE6 two days ago, AA was only able to see up to June 23rd, 2017.
QR is the only Oneworld carrier that flies to SEZ.
