Other than flights marketed by and operated by a Global Explorer participating airline, only QF*/TN flights are allowed (whereas JL*/GK flights are not allowed). Global Explorer fares do not otherwise accept codeshare flights operated by a non-participating carrier, even if marketed by a participating carrier.
