NW RTW program
NW has a RTW program! Nothing published about it at all, not on the website, in paper, nothing. All info and bookings are through the NW or partner RTW desk.
Participating airlines are:
NW, KL, CX, EK (Emirates), SA, UK (AirUK), and KQ (Kenya). (AS, HP, and CO do NOT particpate) WorldPerks miles earned only on NW and KL. No upgrades - you fly what you buy.
Prices (23,000 miles):
F: $5742 C: $4161 Y: $2956 for
Northern Hemisphere itinerary. Southern Hemisphere significantly higher. Additional miles in 5% increments, another 5% miles for another 5% $.
KL and many EK flights lack F. UK is Y only. Many other rules apply.

My refrain, Consumer Reports Travel Letter 8/98 has ALL RTW combinations (at the time) listed including all TW, DL, UA and NW combinations.

Jamiel, thanks. I should have phrased it, "NW publishes nothing about their RTW program, since, according to NW, it uses only non-published fares."
