I see you're in your ex CAI trip right now. Any tips for pricing / finding the availability for a DONE5 ex-CAI using EF? I can't make the Oneworld tool to give me a EGP price (resets to AUD all the time as I travel to Australia first).
Most (All?) the Oneworld airlines pulled their ex-Egypt fares shortly after the Egyptian Government let the country's currency (EGP) float freely back in March - it promptly fell by 66%, which is why the fares were so great.

If you're getting the tool to price an itinerary but it prices in AUD - this means the tool will get Qantas to issue the ticket. The base fare should whatever is in the system for itineraries starting in Egypt, but converted to AUD. It should NOT be the base fare for itineraries starting in Australia!

I believe you are way too late to the party for the ex-Egypt fares. So perhaps start in Norway?
