  1. As an ex Europe ticket we need to finish in country of origin, in this case Norway
  2. We can book a ticket today with first segment in 330 days and take our final flight 12 months after that. Specifically, we can book now for our first segment next September 2025 and leave later segments open dated, to be taken up to July 2026.
  3. Assume it is not possible to have open dated segments when booking through the online tool?
  4. Our first segment will be Finnair. Assume they are not best to ticket through?
  5. Am considering using AA RTW desk (but wary of noted issues with availability) or possibly a specialist travel agent that we have used before. Any thoughts on preferred option?
Proposed itinerary: OSL-HEL-HKG-HAN-HKG-SYD-PER-ADL-SYD-HNL-DFW-MIA-JFK-MAD-OSL
I would strongly advise the AA rtw to ticket, not aware of any availability issues unique to them. Your life will almost cetainly be very significantly easier both to ticket and when you want to make changes.

i don't think Finn Air ever ticket xONEx tickets. Its non trivial to have open dated tickets most ways you ticket but it's free to change dates later so just far-ish out dates in.
