QF Alliance Air on xONEx?
I tried to book CNS-BNE on a QF flight which shows as operated by Alliance Airlines.
AA RTW desk tell me this cannot be flown on a DONE4 ticket. The rules show a whole range of Qantas operators but not this one. That's strange, because QF owns 19% of Alliance (it is so far unsuccessful in buying the other 80%) and on QF's website it just looks like "Qantaslink". I'm confused about why some of the Qantaslink operators are listed in the rules but not all of them....
For the moment I've moved to a QF metal flight, but do we think Alliance Airlines should be allowed in xONEx?

As Alliance isnt listed rule 4(j) as one of the permitted Qantaslink airlines I doubt that you will be able to get the AA rtw desk to include them.
There have always been some affiliate airlines of oneworld airlines that arent permitted under the oneworld explorer rules.
