Hey guys - just wanted to give you all an update. A cpl of us have been been working on our done4 ex ist and have completed within the past couple of days. I just got all the itinerary and pricing done and rcv'd an email from BA ex IST this morning.
I called BA RTW desk NA to have then send my confirmation and we began to discuss purchasing the intinerary. I was told that I can purchase this through BA RTW NA and they will ship the tickets to my US mailing address.
Weird, I thought, and I told the agent that I thought I could ONLY pick up these tickets in IST. The agent said no, once they receive the intin and price it, you can buy it from ANY BA RTW office and they can ship it to your billing address on your credit card. I have the agents name and will be dealing with him/her on this.
Will keep you guys posted on how this goes.

just FYI....
