It is actually a DGLOB34 fare issued by QF as i booked it via the oneworld webpage. It was part of the CAI Deal. Routing is: CAI-AMM-ZRH/BSL-LHR-HND/KIX-HKG-SYD-NAN-SFO-SEA-LAX-HEL-ZRH-LHR-CAI.

The initial idea was to make some days in CAI and go back to Switzerland but with the involuntary flight change i got the idea of making holidays in Jordan instead and use the leg at the end to go to Egypt. Otherwise i potentially might skip it. The main trip is the RTW from Switzerland.

I would be completly in to do the SEA-DOH-ZRH but i am not sure it would be possible due to the miles. Or do they not matter when there is an involuntary change? I anyway will have to adjust the whole trip (apart of the first segment, in order to not pay the 125USD fee and have a recalculation) as i just booked some placeholders for now, though with the intended routing. With manual transit i meant that it wasn't an option offered by the system when entering SEA-ZRH but i first had to enter SEA-LAX and then LAX-ZRH.

I don't have a lot of experience with oneworld and even less with their RTW programm as i mostly fly Star Alliance and have my expertise there. So any help is appreciated!

Looks like QF is more competent than BA: have had the first flight invol changed to QR instead of RJ due to schedule change; they reissued the ticket fast without repricing and now any date changes of subsequent flights they want to re-price with new ex-CAI fare to re-attach pricing. All this before travel start. Nightmare to deal with them even as BAEC Gold which supposedly routes to better agents.

Is there a way to see your list of saved itineraries on the stupid oneworld website, without first having to create a whole new itinerary all over again, just to be able to save it and then see your old ones?

Yes.
On the top right corner of the first screen there is an option to create an account. Once you've done that, then you can save your itineraries
and recall them later
I use it all the time, it works well.

Ah, ok that makes more sense now. If you've never been to Egypt or Jordan before, Jordan is by far a lot easier of a country to navigate. But it's a lot more expensive and doesn't have the multitude of diving / snorkeling destinations that Egypt has. It is still very rich in history, though a lot of it aside from Petra and Wadi Rum is Roman vs. what you'd get in Egypt. You certainly don't have to worry about every single person related to the tourist industry trying to rip you off either that you experience in Egypt, very different culture in that regard. You won't go wrong with either choice but Egypt can be hard core if you're not used to it.

That's an interesting question about the mileage on a DGLOB34 in the case of an involuntary re-route. I have no idea, we have had so few people in this forum talking about that ticket there aren't any data points I'm aware of. I guess try it and see what happens. The only times I've had major invols on RTWs so far on a QF ticket and they were generally pretty good about dealing with it, but just be conscious that while they may end up ticketing something that exceeds your mileage it could (likely) cause problems in subsequent changes later.

I do get what you meant by manual transit now, sometimes the OW tool does require inputting it that way, but it's still a connection on the ticket and as far as the ticketing carrier is concerned. I had to do the same thing on my ex-CAI since I wanted to go from STL to DOH via the west cost, but the tool won't offer those routings, so I entered STL-SEA to get the AS flight, then SEA-DOH for the QR flight, it was happy to ticket it that way, but it's definitely ticketed as a connection. I've done that a few times now, unless you're breaking a married segment availability limitation then it seems to be fine with it.

cool, thank you for your explanation and recommendations. For now i wont change anything, as i first have to deal with actually getting the holidays together. As long as i don't accept i also have worst case the option to cancel for free (due to the change). I guess once it is more clear, i will try my luck on the RJ flights and the reroute from SEA. I also hope to be able to change to NAN-YVR-SEA as it would make immigration easier and a shorter narrowbody leg. But we'll see, as i don't want to pay for that change. I guess, i will try a bit once it's time and we see how it goes. Once the dates are clear i wont have to rebook again, as i will be taking the whol RTW in one go. Thanks again!

Top right of the homepage? I don't see it.

Very clear that Explorer tickets are limited to 16 segments. I�m in the middle of one flying segment 6 tomorrow. 10 more booked from there.

Anyone tried to do a �same day change� with AS that would change AAA-BBB on seg 6 to AAA-CCC-BBB?

it would bring it to 17, but since SDC doesn�t trigger a reticket (I don�t think) might it work?

Hi,

I just wanted to confirm my understanding of how miles/LPs are earned on codeshare flights booked through AA. My wife and I are flying Qatar Airways (QR) next week DFW-DOH-MLE and back (business class). Although this flight is on QR metal, since it was marketed and booked via AA, we will earn miles/LPs based on AA's calculation methodology, correct?

The reason I ask is that, in this case, we'd benefit more from AA's methodology than QR's. Thanks!

Sadly it's extremely likely to be calculated on revenue which is nothing on these tickets compared to a distance credit that you'd get if it were a QR code. There's a thread in the AA forum where people have discussed experiences with this and seems more often than not it credits as revenue. (basically ticket price divided by total miles, then that per mile cost x AA coded segments).
RTW / Round the World ticket - earning AAdvantage Miles

I've had both so far, but I avoid AA codes when at all possible to minimize the risk. in 2022 I had DFW-GRU and GRU-JFK on AA codes actually credit as distance. In 2024 I had DFW-SAL and SAL-DFW credit as revenue, that's a short enough flight that it didn't hurt too bad, but the earnings were 50% of what they would have been if distance calculation. In your case the disparity will be much more since QR has such a nice multiplier with AAdvantage, additionally I have a slightly higher multiplier on AA's revenue base as EXP, but perhaps you'll be EXP before your flight which does help a bit. My SAL flight didn't have any codeshares so there wasn't any choice but to use the AA codes.

Thanks for the feedback, but in this particular situation AA�s revenue-based methodology is better. Unfortunately, these business class tickets were not cheap. 😌

Ah, I had misunderstood and assumed it was on a RTW ticket (DONEx or DGLOB34) since this is the oneworld RTW thread. If it's a standard AA ticket then best asked in the AA forum. RTW are unique products that differ in many ways (including mileage earning in some cases) from regular tickets.

But just for the heck of it I did a calculation, I'm not sure what your fare class is, but RTW tickets book into D class. It has a 150% cabin bonus on QR codes plus your 80% PPro bonus on the base miles, so on a QR D fare you'd earn a total of nearly 66,000 miles / LPs on a DFW-DOH-MLE round trip. To get to that level on AA codes (8x revenue for a PPro) would require a bit over a $8k base fare + airline surcharges (not taxes and airport fees). But if you're on an I, R, or P fare then that significantly lowers the bar of the break even threshold since the cabin bonus isn't nearly as high and could easily be better on a revenue base on those fare codes.

Ah, my bad on the incorrect forum. We�re fare code R, at $7k each, so that�s where the benefit comes in. Again, appreciate the feedback.

I think you are in the correct thread. The title is oneworld booking and the first post was actually about the Circle Pacific product which isn't RTW. There's one or two other threads specific to the Explorer and Global Explorer RTW products but admitted the difference between them all is difficult to grasp.
