I bought a DONE4 ex BKK in Dec 05 and CX issued the ticket for me
No stress, pick up at airport on the day of departure.
No screw ups etc... and sopt on with the tax and the fare rules.
I have used TA in BKK for DONE4s starting there since there is a major benefit
I have arranged a few for people and they have no desire to stop for a day in Bangkok unnecessarily
By booking through the agent I use, I can have the tickets sent by DHL to Australia.
By booking, say, BA10 on 1 ticket for SYD-BKK and then starting the DONE4 using the same BA10 BKK-LHR , no time is spent in Bangkok other than the flight connection time. This is only feasible by having the tickets in hand in Australia at time of check in
Also have had the agent give a few % discount on the fare too
To me, saving 1 day is definately worth using an agent for
