Click for the online version of the rules to which one of the stickies points.


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?


In the APPLICATION section, the rule says:
Code:
3. VIA ONEWORLD AFFILIATE CARRIERS.
The OW Affiliate carroers for BA, listed in this rule, looks like this:
Code:
 23N BRITISH AIRWAYS                                            
 24N ----------------

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?

The answer is in the Booking Codes rules, in the REQUIRED INVENTORY NOT AVAILABLE section:

Code:
FOR TRAVEL WITHIN/BETWEEN THE U.S./CA         
WHERE NO BUSINESS CLASS CABIN IS              
OFFERED, PASSENGERS MAY TRAVEL IN THE         
FIRST CLASS CABIN.
