No wonder CX doesn't promote these fares.

Having said that, there are restrictions on the Circle Pacific fare: non-reroutable, non-endorsable.

It's difficult for an airline to promote these fares to the general public. But it is the job of the agents to know what to sell when asked by their clients. Or that the client themselves to know what to ask. There are also the RTW fares... did you know about that? Or that there are other RTW that are not part of Oneworld.... or that there are visit North America passes, or Visit Europe passes... or there are promo joint fares between CX and SA. Basically there are way too many different types of fares for the average Joe to handle... but it's there...

Otherwise, there's always the Oneworld forum for your enquiries.
