1. My agent says that you can only do a DONE4 from JNB and that I'll have to purchase a separate WDH-JNB-WDH ticket, even though it is served by a Comair (British Air Franchise). Yet, elsewhere on this forum, it states that you can use Comair in RTW tickets? Can any one point me toward the rule?

TRAVEL PERMITTED ON THE FOLLOWING AIRLINES WHICH ARE AFFILIATED WITH ONEWORLD.
AMERICAN AIRLINES - AMERICAN EAGLE including flights operated by EXECUTIVE AIR / TWA/ AMERICAN CONNECTION - including flights operated by CHAUTAUQUA/TRANS STATES/ ANDCORPORATE AIRLINES

QANTAS - QantasLink operated by IMPULSE (last travel date 24May04), NATIONAL JET SYSTEMS, EASTERN AUSTRALIA, SOUTHERN AUSTRALIA, SUNSTATE AIRLINES and JETCONNECT.


2. The BOS-ORD and ORD-LAX are served in two class segments. Some of you on this forum state that with a DONE4, you can fly in the "first" class of the AA flight on the domestic routes, when there is no business. She insists, she can only book me in economy on the two cabin AA flights. Can you point me toward the rule?

FOR FLIGHTS WHERE NO FIRST OR BUSINESS CLASS IS aVAILABLE OR OFFERED FIRST CLASS PASSENGERS WILL TRAVEL IN BUSINESS / ECONOMY CLASS AND BUSINESS CLASS PASSENGERS WILL TRAVEL IN ECONOMY CLASS. THE FARE FOR THE HIGHEST CLASS USED APPLIES AND NO REFUND WILL BE GIVEN.

EXCEPTION - FOR SERVICES WITHIN/BETWEEN THE USA AND CANADA WHERE NO BUSINESS CLASS IS OFFERED BUSINESS CLASS PASSENGERS MAY BOOK AND TRAVEL IN FIRST CLASS SUBJECT TO AVAILABILITY.


3. I'm a BA EC member. Can I use points to upgrade the QF LAX-SYD from Business to First using a DONE4 ticket? Can you point me toward the rule?

No. You can only upgrade using Miles on flights booked directly with BA either on the website or by telephone.

thanks for all your expertise
