So, you can purchase it, but you can not book flights on Apr 2006 until May 2005.
You have two choices.
1. Remain some later segments OPEN.
2. Book earler date flights as dummy, and change them after.
My plan was to have all flights up to the end of Oct '05 filled in and assigned when I purchased the ticket. I would then firm up the rest of the flights 10 to 11 months prior to flight date for the "tough to get" flights ie. SYD-SCL. Which other flights might be "tough to get" in my itinerary. Maybe BOM-SYD? Help!
On another note, I have sent an initial email to Emeco about 36 hours ago, but I have not had a response yet. Should I call AA's RTW desk to book the first few flights thru the end of Oct '05 and then contact Emeco again. I am getting nervous that I may not get this ticket issued before Dec 31 '04. Previous posts on other threads have mentioned that Emeco's service has been top notch, but I haven't even heard back from them. Any advice?
Cheers,
