Exactly, anabolism. Important distinction, too.

I understand the Pakistani rupee has been devalued significantly in recent days. I don't follow that market but maybe it has had some impact on xONEx pricing.

In USD:

DONE3 $5576
DONE4 $6379
DONE5 $7567
DONE6 $8363

AONEx are all higher than that.

On December 6, 2017, PKR was 105.39188 to the dollar. Yesterday's close was at 137.45141 to the dollar. (data from xe.com)

EF just gave me these numbers, using KHI as the POS, and all in USD. First number is price if issued by AA or QR, second number is price if issued by BA. I didn't check any other airlines.

DONE3: 5330.62 5353.66
DONE4: 6098.35 6121.39
DONE5: 7233.42 7256.46
DONE6: 7994.74 8017.89

AONE3: 9537.97 9561.01
AONE4: 10964.97 10988.01
AONE5: 12117.21 12140.25
AONE6: 14001.48 14024.52

Looks like about USD $23 more for a BA issued ticket. Any ideas what that's about? LHR taxes are much higher than that, no?

And interestingly, just checking other possible purchase points in my life, there's an L fare but no DONEx or AONEx fare ex-BKK listed on EF. Any ideas?

I'm seeing ex-BKK DONEn and AONEn fares in EF
(chose QF, QR and JL as the airlines - all three are showing the fares)

EF is showing base fares, no taxes. I'm not sure why BA shows slightly more than others.

My prices were also pulled from EF for ISB. The slight difference in carrier pricing is something I have seen before. We all have seen big spreads between carriers before (e.g. when there was a large deval and one carrier is slow to update their fare). I'm sure BA updated their fare more recently hence the slight difference.

Remember the good old days, the Canadian exception! I was able to purchase 1. But when I was trying to book another one, it was shut off already!
I started from AMM with a DONE3. I had posted a trip report on that RTW, and you can find it below (if you so wish):

FYI and possibly relevant, BA recently announced the return of LHR ISB from next summer.

Ex-KHI prices seem to be down between USD $50 and $100. This must be due to currency fluctuation.

Price increases, rule changes coming

I was just informed that RTW fares will be going up imminently, especially OSL and possibly other Europe originations. I was also told there will be some unspecified rule changes, and that the rule about Australian trans-cons is more restrictive now, only one transcan total (it used to be interpreted as allowing up to three trans-cons as long as each line is only used one, now it is only one line total).

I have an RTW that auto-priced last year with pretty much that routing (SYD-PER-DRW-SYD), tried to do something very similar a few days ago, was told no. Separately, a TA told me a new DONE4 won't auto-price with SYD-PER-DRW-MEL.

Can confirm that the prices ex OSL have increased significantly. Expert flyer has yet to update.
