e-ticketing

I called QF today who mentioned that should I organise even a 20 segment xONEx, I should be able to get an e-ticket assuming of course all the oneworld carriers in question have e-ticket interlining in place. Thought it was worth letting you all know although not sure of course if this will happen in practice.

I plan to book a BA/QF/CX/AA ticket shortly ex CAI and will report if I am able to get an e-ticket.

I don't know if BA CAI will be able to issue such e-ticket, but I do know that Emeco will not, because of your CX flight(s).

I have a BA CAI issued e-ticket with sectors on BA/AA/CX if that helps. BA has interline e-ticket agreements with all OneWorld partners- this may be the key factor.

Edited to add: AA was the first to have interline e-ticket agreements with all OneWorld partners; I assume the problem is with EMECO then?

I thought that tickets with LAN Chile segments could not be issued as e-tickets. Has this changed since October, when my last RTW was issued?

The table shown at the link below should answer your questions regarding e-ticket.

Yes, in theory, but in reality, when the ticket is issued by some agents, for example Emeco (AA's agent in CAI), the table above goes out the window, and you end up with a paper ticket regardless, because for whatever reasons the agent is just not able to e-ticket CX/LA segments (in this example). (Edited to add that this info is current as of feb 01, 2005)
