ACC (origin) & JNB possible on a DONE5
 
Hi, can anyone tell me is it achievable to originate a DONE5 in ACC and also include JNB on the itinerary.

Essentially I would like to be able to include these cities (in this order) JNB, PER, BNE, HOU, YYZ and end in LHR with final sector LHR-ACC.

Of course happy to do mileage runs where I can.

Any idea if all 6 cities plus ACC starting point can be done?

You can't.
There is no direct/connecting flight(s) for ACC-JNB within African continent.
You can't start like ACC-xLHR-JNB, because only one intercontinental departure/arrival are permited for African continent.

OK Thanks for that.

So on the entire onweorld network am I right to assume that there is no instance in the entire continent of Africa where you could possibly include more than one city but not include a South African city and not need a surface on an XONEX fare?

Intracontinental flights in Africa are one of the weak points of oneworld. An xonex does allow an extra transit without stopover in EUR for certain itineraries as detailed below.

(e) Only one intercontinental departure and one intercontinental arrival permitted in each continent except as follows:
1. Two permitted in North America when one is a transfer without stopover.
2. Two permitted in Asia when one is a transfer without stopover or on direct single plane service between the Southwest Pacific and Europe.
3. For travel to/from or via Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya and Uganda two permitted in Europe when one is a transfer without stopover between Ghana/Nigeria/Kenya/Uganda and another continent.
(c) Travel may originate at any point for which fares are published and must terminate at the same point, except that origin-destination surface segments are permitted as follows
(a) within the country of origin
(b) within the Middle East
(c) between the United States and Canada
(d) between HKG and China
(e) between Malaysia and SIN
(f) within Africa
(g) between Maldives & Sri Lanka/India
