For the last 6 months - since deciding to do a LONE5 (ex Oz) I have been an avide user (and fan) of this forum. However, all this focus on DONE*s and AONE*s has finally got to me ... I have now decided to get a cheap seat to Europe and get a DONE4 ex CAI. The fact that the $A is quite strong at the moment is a defining factor, as is the fact that this allows me to stay away for more than 12 months.

I am confident of my planned routing - most of the issues seem to have been covered in old threads - so I won't bother anyone with that. What I am still not completely clear about is the process for getting my ticket (Yes, I have searched and looked at all the old posts).

1. I'm in Oz ... who do I call to make the initial reservation - QF, BA, CX, AA. Does it need to be AA if I want to use (the much recommended) ENEMCO? Maybe the question is, who will give me less grief?

2. Do I need to tell QF, BA etc to pass this on to EMENCO OR can I just make the resevation and then call / email EMENCO with a ref and tell them to take it over? OR plan B - can I just deal directly with EMENCO?

3. Will ENEMCO offer any discount on the published fare?

Any advice, please - especially anyone who has experience from OZ.

Many thanks.
