I am thinking that you priced the xONEx fares based on AA.
The prices listed in EF for QR are sometimes quite a bit less expensive. In particular, for India and South Africa. I know who I would be choosing if I were to consider more wandering Fred |

So no opportunities to take advantage of the Iranian currency's collapse. (Unlike when the Egyptian Pound was severely devalued back in early 2024 (that led to a feeding-frenzy - which I was part of :D) |
