Have you ticketed this yet ?
Interested to see if all your connections are OK with OWE rules

(spelling corrected)

Mwenenzi, I don't plan on doing this till towards the end of the year, which means it won't be Septemberish till I finalise where I'm going, or book and ticket it.

cheers

If you don't book before 15 April you may be ###ed.

I followed the link posted by Mwenenzi and I'm confused about the 15 April price rise. I have booked a OWE4 and have yet to sort out a few of my flights. I won't be leaving until mid Aug and was not planning on having it ticketed until then.

So if I have it ticketed after 15 April will I be charged the 5% extra?

The price is based upon that in effect on the day you ticket it, not the day that the reservation was made. If you wait until April 15 it will cost more. This is true for almost all fares, and isn't unique to the airline industry.

Remember that the best way to do OWEs is to keep the ticket and the reservation separate. So if you have fixed your routing just get an open-dated ticket issued (the only thing you have to fix is the first flight (or, depending on who you ask, all your flights up to the first international one).

It not the price rise that is the problem, but the 20 segment limit.

It would be better is questions etc about the revised rules are kept on the other thread

Without Africa, I'm down to 22 segments: mel-per-drw-syd-akl-hkg-bom-hkg-bom-hkg-lhr-tlv-lhr-lpa-lhr-lax-sju-dfw-anc-dfw-sjo-jfk-syd.

I'll see what happens with this new rules as the info comes to hand. There's no way I cabn ticket it towards the end of the year. I may have to add stops, make changes, change routing etc.

Then again, I may choose to do a Star RTW instead and take advantage of my Star Gold status. Anything is possible.

goodo
