Do I book with another TA in another country and if so which country do you recommend starting the journey from. Plus can I then end the trip in Australia?
Q: How much does the ticket cost?
A: The ticket is priced based on the number of continents you visit, a minimum of three and a maximum of six. The pricing varies depending on where in the world the ticket is issued. If want to try to save some money by starting your *ONE* somewhere other than your home to take advantage of local pricing and currency rate differences, do a search - there are various helpful posts around. Infants under 2 and not occupying a seat are charged 10% of the adult fare. Children 2-11 and occupying a seat are charged 75% of the adult fare, except for tickets originating in India where they pay 67% of the adult fare.
Fares from various countries may be found in
this thread and
this spreadsheet. You will need to have the ticket issued in that country by a TA or a OW airline.
