It's impossible for us to guess at the ease or difficulty in getting it fixed without that info.
The RJ one would easily be eligible for a re-route unless you actually want to spend a day in Jordan. I've been there a few times and it's a very nice country and plenty you can do in 24 hours, but up to you. The visa is slightly expensive in my opinion compared to others in the region. Very high chance you can re-route it on QR which is a FAR FAR superior airline. RJ is about as basic and old school as it gets in business class these days. QR on the other hand is top notch.
For your second one with AY, I'm not exactly following what you mean by manual transit. Your original routing, despite having to enter it like you did will still be a transit on the ticket, not a stopover. Your proposed re-reroute seems viable, but I'm not sure Id' advise it depending on the BA product on that route. Unless it's BA's new Club Suite, the old one is God awful. AY flies to SEA as well don't they? You can also re-route it on QR via DOH if you're after extra miles and a better flight experience. (Yeah A LOT longer in the air, so again priorities do matter)
It is actually a DGLOB34 fare issued by QF as i booked it via the oneworld webpage. It was part of the CAI Deal. Routing is: CAI-AMM-ZRH/BSL-LHR-HND/KIX-HKG-SYD-NAN-SFO-SEA-LAX-HEL-ZRH-LHR-CAI.
The initial idea was to make some days in CAI and go back to Switzerland but with the involuntary flight change i got the idea of making holidays in Jordan instead and use the leg at the end to go to Egypt. Otherwise i potentially might skip it. The main trip is the RTW from Switzerland.
I would be completly in to do the SEA-DOH-ZRH but i am not sure it would be possible due to the miles. Or do they not matter when there is an involuntary change? I anyway will have to adjust the whole trip (apart of the first segment, in order to not pay the 125USD fee and have a recalculation) as i just booked some placeholders for now, though with the intended routing. With manual transit i meant that it wasn't an option offered by the system when entering SEA-ZRH but i first had to enter SEA-LAX and then LAX-ZRH.
I don't have a lot of experience with oneworld and even less with their RTW programm as i mostly fly Star Alliance and have my expertise there. So any help is appreciated!
