Who issued the tickets/PNR? Ticket number AA=001, QF=081, etc
Your current PNR (6 character reference) will have 2 e-tickets associate with it. In my opinion would need to split the PNR so each e-ticket has its own PNR. Will depend a *lot* on the airline that issued the tickets.

For some unknown reason wiki is showing as locked to me. Am 95% sure was unlocked a few days and could be edited. I was the last to edit the wiki,doing a little formatting of lists.

Hi folks,
I need a RTW ticket,
I'm usually pretty good at booking tickets etc. However I've never booked a RTW, I need maybe someone to help me.
I'm based in the uk but willing to travel ex eu.
I need to fly out next month.
you can also drop me a message if you're a travel agent or a RTW booking guru
Thanks so much

And it was locked for me also
But then I noticed I had an "Unlock" option, which I clicked
and now it is unlocked, for me at least.

welcome to FlyerTalk - there’s lots of great info in this thread and you can likely find most of your answers there. People are happy to help, however, this is not a booking service and you’ve provided no specific questions. Good luck

if you have nothing to add then keep quiet.
I've helped many people here on FT to book TP runs over the years via dropping them a DM.
my answers are not on here. That is why im asking...
I'm not sure why there are so many stuck-up people on here. Anyways.....
I need some help as this is a big trip.
I need to be in India next month,
the stops I make along the way doesn't really matter hence why i need help there are so many great options out there I can pay cash or avios, I've never booked a RTW so it's overwhelming for me, but happy to answer any questions

Our tickets were issued by QF, so I can seperate the ticket online?

Not sure about that - you might need to call. Since the QF agents often have a bit of a dearth of skill it might be helpful to ensure you use the correct terminology with them:

you already have separate tickets - assuming you used 16 segments you’ll each have tickets with four ticket numbers.

these tickets are attached to one reservation (often referred to as a PNR) - what you’re looking to do is split the reservation/PNR so they can be modified separately.

Start by downloading the rules. And have a good read on them. Are restrictions.
And getting A-D-L fare class seats on some routes can be challenging at times
https://www.oneworld.com/world-travel
FAQ
What are the RTW rules
Read on for Round The World rules and conditions [Note: Links open PDF in browser]:

https://assets.ctfassets.net/m9ph4qv...l-explorer.pdf
https://assets.ctfassets.net/m9ph4qv...le-pacific.pdf
Where do you want to go? UK(EU)-India-? (a zillion or what ever combinations)
Try a simple route in the RTW tool as a practice---> https://rtw.oneworld.com/rtw/
say LHR-HKG-SYD-LAX-JFK-LHR
Then OSL-LHR-HKG-SYD-LAX-JFK-LHR-OSL
Then LAX-JFK-LHR-HKG-SYD-LAX

I'm not sure why you're being rude. You have shown up here and have asked for help with no details for what you want. Plenty of people, myself included, have been happy to help others with our experiences + booking processes.

So far, all we know after your second post is that you need to be in India next month and that you're willing to either leave from the UK or the EU. This thread and others like it have quite a few details on the most cost-effective departure destinations. Reading them would inform your initial thoughts on where to leave from (likely OSL), how you would pay (there's no option to pay for an RTW with Avios), and whether or not this option makes sense for you (you can't end your trip in India, so you'll need to either travel to India and then make your way back separately to the UK before heading back to India for the remainder of your trip OR go around the world between now and next month, end up in India, and then use your flight home from India to get back to the UK before dropping the final leg to OSL). All of that would be quite clear if you had actually read this thread or the others in the Oneworld section as opposed to being dismissive and antagonistic.

Just to update, i do not have the edit/lock button, may be it's the user access level.
https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...954e4731d5.jpg

but the wiki page is showing up now, on top, before your first post.
I do not know why or what changed though, i am using the same browser.
