FTers more than a specific thread - RichLond, Darren, Guy Betsy and 2 Many Miles teaching me how to construct OneWorld RTW trips. I got 36 segment 6 continent tickets out of Sweden, then out of South Africa, for amazingly affordable prices ($3.5K if memory serves me correctly). My husband and I traveled comfortably to places like Easter Island, Capetown, and St Petersburg, places that weren't even in our radar screen before learning about these tickets. These were awesome awesome deals, sadly now gone with the OneWorld tickets capped at 16 segments at a substantially higher price.
