Thanks.

Yes I can get that route option in the Oneworld tool if I DON’T try to add an extra trip to Doha at the end of our trip. When I add the trip to Doha the tool forces me to travel out from Oslo via Heathrow. Thus my dilemma about choosing to start from Stockholm or Oslo. I can get prices for both these trips in business class but the trip starting in OSL is 14,000SEK cheaper (1350US$).

OSL-AKL via HEL and DOH, CHC-NAN, NAN-LAX, LAX-HEL, HEL-OSL

or

ARN-AKL via DOH, CHC-NAN, NAN-LAX, LAX-HEL, HEL-DOH, DOH-ARN


I’m reliant on finding a working itinerary on the Oneworld site because I don’t think I can book through AA or BA when I am avoiding their flights and a local travel agent can’t match the Oneworld price.

But any input on how I can get around this is welcome.
