No, I mean that (going on what they said) since the flight is on IB metal it can on only be booked under an IB flight number.
Can you book IB flight number on IB metal for this code share flight ?
Yes, I can book it as an IB flight, no problem.
If AA RTW desk does not permit code share flight at all,
does it deny all transpacific flight between US and JP?
All transpacifc flights of AA between US and JP are code shared with JL.
This was mentioned as a specific restriction (they are wrong, of course) of the OneWorld Explorer fare. It does not affect other fares or flights, such as transpacific JL code shares.
Anyway, I hope your problem will be resolved.
It will be resolved, I have no doubt, first thing on monday. It is just a matter of persevering until I get to talk to the right agent. Thank you for the good wishes.
