Should I have an itinerary already planned with the OW desk, and then I just pay for it in Warsaw? Is there a way to reserve the ticket from here in America? Do I need to call someone in Poland to book it, or can they do this on the american 1-800 number? Can I just show up at a ticket office for BA in Warsaw and hand them some money for the ticket on the spot? Do they take Traveller's Cheques? Does anyone know some reputable contacts in other countries, like Egypt or Poland to buy the tix with? Is there alreasy a forum for this that I should be reading?
Help! Mike
Mike, you can see a recent experience with a DONEx ticket sold in Poland on this thread - http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=352773

Oh, and if you haven't been welcomed to flyertalk yet, consider it DONEx.
