I think LONEx fares are great value: I helped my daughter buy two in the past two years starting in CAI. For the flying I have been doing myself, a BA/QANTAS RTW is several hundred dollars less expensive than an LONEx fare. Paying extra for an LONE4, maximizing miles on it, and using AA segments would be an option to assist in retaining AA Platinum.
Anyone know what is the maximum number of AA EQP one can get on an LONE4 between LHR, MEL and YYZ?
