CX will tell JL that you flew in Z class. It is unlikely you will get any credit for the flight.

That is not what happens in my experience. CX advises other FFPs the paid class (ie D) and miles post based on that.

Is that your experience with CX? BA, AA and IB do not do this ...

Can I somehow include codeshares in Southwest Pacific area in xONEx ticket?

I just made ex JNB LONE6 booking through AA RTW desk. I was planning to include BNE-PER with AA flight number (operated by QA) and AKL-HKG with AY flight number (operated by CX), but the agent told me that codeshares can be included only within North America and flying to/from North America. There is availability in the flight I requested according to Experflyer.

However, fare rule sheet specify
So the rule is probably made by AA? If the booking will be ticketed with operating carrier flight number, could I probably just change the flights to AA/AY flight number with some other OW representative? I don't want to include CX flight number in the ticket, because it won't give any miles to AA.

The rule was invented by that particular AA agent. You can include codeshared where they would be normally allowed.

Welcome to Flyer Talk thois :)

Codeshare often (not always) require connections to/from the relevant airline - in your examples LAX-SYD on AA or HKG-HEL on AY.

If I may make a technical point, neither of these codeshares require connections. They must simply be in conjunction with an AA-coded transpacific or transatlantic flight also on the same ticket.

For instance, here is AA PER-BNE one month apart from the AA transpacific sector:

In Europe, I have flown many AA sectors unconnected to their preceding flights. There may be some specific rule for oneworld RTW tickets but I am a little suspicious about that.

Ok, that was propably the real reason. Thanks for answers.

Actually, another agent agreed to put AY codeshare to the booking, but it came back from the pricing as invalid. I had QF flight between the AA coded intercontinental leg and the BNE-PER leg, as my routing was DFW-SYD-ZQN-BNE-PER-AKL-HKG-MNL.

Trying another routing pulled up another question. I would have been interested of including ZQN-MEL leg in the booking. Only direct flights within OW are QF coded operated by JQ. Expertflyer shows availability on the flight.
Agent at AA RTW desk said that the service don't show up in their system. Also called QF, they cannot see it either. The direct connection doesn't even shop up in the OW route map. So would it be possible to include this leg as direct flight in xONEx ticket somehow?

JQ operated flights are not permitted - sorry!

Not quite correct.
The actual rule is:And yes - QF does codeshare on JQ's ZQN-MEL service

QF coded JQ flights are allowed on most oneworld fares. However, it limits who can issue the ticket to those member airlines that have an interline agreement with JQ.
QF also does not sell codeshare seats on JQ flights in any J class, so the JQ flights with business (787 operated flights) will not have any QF coded D seats and anyone using a QF coded JQ flight on an A, D or I oneworld product will be stuck in L.

Does anyone understand the business logic of that?

Does the most significant carrier baggage rule apply to the xONEx fares?

Oneworld explorer rules say
MSC in my DONE5 ticket is AA and first carrier is BA.

AA rules allow 2x32kg/158cm in Business, so this is counted as additional allowance? As I understand, according to the MSC rule this additional allowance applies to the whole itionary. Can someone confirm this?

The MSC rule only applies for each baggage journey --- between drop and pick up.

So even if the MSC rule applied, unless your trip had no stopovers (which is disallowed by the rules anyway), it would not apply a single allowance to the whole journey.

To muddy the waters a little, if your journey begins or ends in the US, the MSC rule is pre-emoted by DoT regulations; and that regulation does apply to the whole itinerary.

For a ticket issued through a TA, is it possible for me to make the change directly with the ticketing airline pre departure? Have an ex NRT ticket issued by a very useless TA (Co policy). In the past they have managed to complicate even the simplest requests/instruction and even gave wrong info, so am keen to to avoid any dealing with them when possible, not to mention possible extra cost. Now, i just realized that 1 segment i'm flying on AY metal is actually a code share with BA and would like to change the flight code to BA if possible as BA flights accumulate double mileage on JL mileage program. Getting BA coded flight itself should be ok as I would be flying on BA on the preceding segment. I would like to contact JL as the ticketing carrier to change the code, but would this be possible or would i have to go through my useless TA? TIA
