Hello my fellow oneworld fans,

I have just completed a near-complete update of oneworld Explorer RTW prices for all countries, thanks to one of you (anonymous)! Thanks!

You can find all the goodies on FewMiles' Unofficial oneworld Info Desk or for the price chart go directly to http://fewmiles.tripod.com/oneworld/owe.html#1

Notes:

• I'm still missing prices for Europe/Middle East countries with names in the T-Z range. This includes Turkey, Tunisia, UAE, and UK (a biggie). I've asked my source if s/he can help.
• I'm also trying to get a hold of the latest copy of the rules.
• As usual, please pay attention to the "Effective" date to see when a country's prices were last updated.
• Some countries which were not listed before have been added to the price chart.
• Many countries have dropped seasonal fares for economy class. Those that retain seasons have gone to a high/low season approach with only two tiers of fares. The general rules on pricing (at bottom of the page) still have a provision for up to 4 seasons (low/high/shoulder/basic).
• Concorde surcharge chart at bottom of page has also been redone.
• An index at the beginning of the price chart section has been added for easier navigation. In addition you can link directly to a particular country's price chart by replacing the "#1" in the owe.html URL above with "#" + the name of the country, e.g. "... owe.html#HongKong".

Enjoy! I hope to get the last few countries' prices soon.

Thanks everyone,
FewMiles..

I forgot to add: Many countries are priced in USD. Also, the new Euro-zone (EUR)has taken effect. This makes price comparison somewhat easier, especially in Western Europe.

FewMiles..

Nice work!!!!! Many thanks.

Just GREAT effort. Keep it up FEWMILES

Thx for your superb effort, FM.

You might want to take off Iceland, Slovakia, and Slovenia. BA no longer flies to them, so the prices are of no consequence.

I created an Excel workbook that allows the user to do currency conversions on FewMiles' latest fare chart. The chart is available on a link from FewMiles' OWE RTW Price Chart Page. It's about a 400K file and contains one macro that I promise will not hurt anything on your computer. Instructions for usage are on the first sheet. You will need to download a currency conversion chart from XE.

This has not been tested extensively so bug reports are welcome as well as suggestions for improvements. Created on a PC with Excel 2000 but may work on Mac or PC with Office 97 or later.

(Revised to fix the link reference problem.)

Hi everyone,

I didn't realize that tripod doesn't allow "remote loading" of files, so if you click on ExMo's link, it won't work. I've now added a link to the RTW page that will allow you to access the file.

My apologies to ExMo and all you RTW fanatics. ExMo has put together a great spreadsheet - check it out!

this is great! thanks exmo and fewmiles!

thank you very much FewMiles and ExMo! I find it amazingly useful!!!

Having done nearly a million of miles on RTWs, I still find your great work very helpful. Fewmiles, ExMo, Hsi Chang and all the others - thank you for a great job.

Good day everyone!

Two more updates:

1) I have received price updates for the remaining countries. All prices are now up to date. Enjoy!

2) I also have posted the latest fare rules (N*/OW EXPLORER) on the "rules and notes" page.

some other changes which are quite important

1. prior departure: one change (other than time/date), e.g., re-route allowed at no charge [in the past i believe unlimited change permitted]

2. AA upgrade only with mile (not e-upgrade), but this only impact MONE* fares. since you cannot e-upgraed J to P anyway.

3. only 2 extra segment allowed (in the past i think it was unlimited?).
for leisure traveller this is important: [but this is not new] if you have an AONE*, you can purchase your extra segment at M for $150. i.e. you can pick a segment to fly in M for 150$/400$
so, in NA, you will find a 3-class flight and pay 400 to get into D/J (same quality as F anyway)

4. as others already pointed out. transcont restriction for OZ added; transcont for NA defined; intercont gateway rules defined; europe 'longhaul' defined...mostly against mileage runner ....

again, thanks to fewmiles and exmo!
