You cannot price out a RTW on aa.com. The price it gave you was as if you were buying each leg seperatly.
A F RTW on OneWorld, ex-USA, costs $9600, $10400, $11300, or $13200 for 3,4,5, and 6 continents respectively.
Yeah, I should have reworded the title and post to "A trip around the world", not a formal RTW.
The reason I call it a round-the-world is because I have a friend who is doing it but he booked all of his tickets for cheaper than what he could find on any of the alliance's websites. His trip will take a month and will cover 4 continents.
Most FT'ers are billionaires? Now I kind of feel inadequate... No wonder no one wanted to eat breakfast with me in DFW.
