What are the rules surrounding a DCIRAT17 fare?

Hi All,

I was browsing the internet and came across the fare term 'DCIRAT17' from One World and ex LHR in J it is very well priced.

Is this a RTW ticket?

You're right, the price for these tickets is quite attractive. It's not valid for RTW itineraries, it only lets you travel across the Atlantic.It's typically used for itineraries like: UK-South America- (Central America + Caribbean) -North America-UK (or vice versa), and you have 3 different mileage allowances 17-21-25K, available in economy, business and first (don(t think they have premium eco). You have the same flight allowance as a RTW (16 coupons incl, surface sectors) but the stopover limitations are more restrictive (min of 1 stopover and max of 3 per visited continent + 1 stopover in the continent of origin). If you need more sectors or more stopovers you can add a One World LATAM pass to you it at an extra cost.
You can find more details here:

Unsure about the 17,000 limit.

I was just looking at one of these for an upcoming trip, definitely not cheap ex-US ($8200), and a bit cheaper out of Canada ($6750) which being in SEA, YVR is a good option. But a real deal can be had ex-ALG $4300 for the 17k variant and $4800 for the 21k variant. Ex-TUN is about $500 less still although I think I would pay the extra for the easy ALG-MAD and ALG-LGW options on IB and BA.
