AONE4 in september
 

This is my tentative routing for September, can you guys help me improve it?

BUE, SCL and IPC are optional, the rest I need to go.

Improve in what sense? I'm sure you know where you have extra sectors you can use...

Improve in terms of routes, times efficiency, additional sectors. Any suggestions? E.g. I am undecided between MAD-BUE and LHR-BUE, IB or BA? Additional sectors -- with the new rules I have little room left, no? Has anyone taken the SCL-SYD flight and can comment? Is it worth to ad a continent and fly SCL-LAX-HKG instead?

You are allowed 20 segmnets. You have 13. So you can add your allowed 4 segments in SWP (SLC-SYD-CNS-PER-MEL-AKL-HKG?) and two more in Asia (HKG-CMB-HKG?)

that would exceed 34'000 miles, wouldn't it?

There is no mileage restriction on an AONE4 (or any of the OneWorldExplorer fares) that I am aware of. Perhaps you are mixing it up with a AGLOB34 which is a Global Explorer fare.

you are absolutely right. i never knew there were two distinct explorer fares. http://www.oneworld.com/products/explorer.cfm does not explain this at all. tks as always.
