Some travel via Australia, but probably not enough to warrant considering the QF option.....most trips OW RTW 3-continents....

Thanks for any comments!
Depends on whether any of your itineraries involve AA trans-Atlantic, or whether you wish to be constrained from using AA trans-Atlantic.

With one or two minor exceptions, you won't be able to accrue miles to BA if flying AA TATL, regardless of class of travel. This might impact upon your decision.
