MM works the cabins by assuming an aircraft type (e.g. 773 or 744) has a fixed configuration per airline (i.e. 744 is always fjwy), so if the aircraft type 744 maps to different configs (e.g. fjwy, jwy) then it means either a lot of manual tweaking, or we just live with it!

The QF 2 class 744s (jy) are currently being refitted into 3 class (jwy). They don't have any 744 fjy. These will be used mainly on SYD-NRT and SYD-SIN-FRA (though there are a few temporary changes coming due to the situation in Japan which will see the NRT 744 used on BNE-SIN for a short time).
The 4 class 744s will be getting reconfigged into 3 class (jwy - dropping f) as more 388s come online.
At the moment, QF has 5 different configs of 744. 3x 4 class, 1x 3 class and 1x 2 class.
By the end of next year, the current plans are to only have 3 class 744s - jwy and QF will only have F on 388 routes.

Great to see the tool being updated SLF, something we all appreciate!

Thanks Himeno!

Sounds like for now I should keep the "QF 744" type as "fjpy" but at some point (possibly soon) it will need changing to "jpy". I'm happy to make that change when the consensus is such ... meanwhile if a specific route is shown incorrectly just let me know. i.e. is now the right time to change SYD-NRT (& back) and SIN-FRA (& back) to "jpy" for QF 744. If so, are all SYD-SIN QF 744 services also "jpy" or are some "fjpy"?

Until the config change is complete, 744s continuing on to LHR still have f (though that's only on days when the AU-SIN-LHR routes aren't operated by 388s).

From the missing cabins list:

There's a J cabin on the AMS-LCY BA flights, both for E70 and E90. The KA 773s operate FJY on the HKG-TPE route.

Thanks for keeping the tool up to date! ^

QF 744s on SYD-NRT & SIN-FRA routes now show "jpy" (no F)
BA E70 & E90 are now "jy" (all routes)
KA 773 is now "fjy" (all routes)

The Great Circle map no longer has a "Click here to open in a separate window" message. Just click on the GC map to do this now.

New feature - create your own customized oneworld route map - when using the "OWE Planner" section, enter an airport in the "From" location and hit "Go". The GCMap shows all the destinations served from that location. Works with the distance/To modifiers also, but not yet with the cabin selection (e.g. only F) - that will come but I need to rewrite the code a little. Useful for working out where you can fly from a location, when you don't know all the airport codes.

Just noticed the link to the xONEx rules .pdf at the bottom of the page is outdated.

Correct link is:

I'd be interested to know if this is useful. It's been quite handy for me recently; e.g. to work out where I can get to from any London airport (enter "LON") to Italy (enter "it") - up come all the routes on a map from LHR & LGW the Italian cities served. You can use any country code and also the OW region codes (prefix these with a "~", viz. ~nam ~sam ~eur ~afr ~asa ~swp). Another interesting map is BCN to ~eur

Note also I've moved the URL and set up some redirects - hopefully any access will now end up at the URL shown in my signature now. I've noticed a "%2C" problem with URLs, it's fairly easy to change the "%2C" to a comma "," and then all works OK.

Previously the URLs had a version number in them (e.g. 0.95024), I want to simplify this and make it easier to use - the new URL (with "mm" in it) is intended to remain fixed when MM is updated.

This is now fixed. The Great Circle map now observes the setting of the cabins button, so it's quite easy to determine the routes served out of (e.g.) HKG where a First class cabin is available. 0.95025 also includes updates to the flight database, plus a few other enhancements (see the change log).

Just put in my plans for later in the year, one sector, ATL-ORD, shows as only Y (AA CR7). AA is installing first class on their CR7s. AA website and oneworld booking tool both show the sector I entered as having first class.

Cx888: Hkg-yvr-jfk
 
SLF,
Great tool! Thanks.

Q: Is the tool showing accurate mileage for CX888? However, when plug in HKG-YVR-JFK, tool counts YVR as one additional segment, hence invalidates an otherwise legit 16-segment RTW itin.
