It is correct that they priced in NOK although as you used an Amex I hope they put it through into GBP (with a decent conversion rate) and you didn’t end up paying Amex’s extortionate international transaction fee - 3% if I remember correctly. It’s the one thing that puts me off using Amex for my international travel.
Indeed they charged me in £. The agenet made a point of telling me that the rate was set daily by BA using standard rates. The charge appeared on my Amex as £.

Interesting. When is your trip, specifically, when is your flight on FJ? The OW website still says "Fiji Airways will become the 15th full member of the alliance in 2025." I somehow missed the announcement of exactly when that status begins; it's good to know that these flights are now bookable on xONEx!
The FJ flight is late Noember. Interesting the onward flight on FJ to NZ has seats allocated.

I am not sure of the exact fare 'title'. It starts in Oslo in Novemeber 2025.

If your total mileage is 34,000 or less, then it could be a Global Explorer (a so-called DGLOB34)
which allows you to use additional airlines, such as Fiji Airlines

ps I'm intrigued: you're a Oneworld Ambassador; what does that mean?

In the past, that was sort of a junior moderator, or moderator-in-training on FT. Don't know if it's been changed.

I offered my services many years ago to answer questions on the flame free One World thread. I was most diligent in monitoring the thread at least weekly. Sadly the flow of quesions and my enthusiasm have waned.

It doesn't matter when you start. A xONEx with FJ included should not be sold before FJ officially joins oneworld.

Is there any way to ticket ex Oslo without AA or BA coded? Planning to credit to Iberia for OWE…

Yes, use a travel agent
