RTW ticket Questions

I am currently pricing an RTW for business. Leaving 24-June-05, returning 12-July-05.

Choice of two iteinearies...

LON - SYD - MEL - HKG - CAN - PVG - NRT - LAX - LHR
or
LON - NRT - PVG - CAN - HKG - MEL - SYD - LAX - LHR

On oneworld it doesn't appear to have a PVG - NRT option. Am I correct in saying this?

Welcome to FT -- but you joined to ask this?
Go to the oneworld web site and download the electronic timetable, or even go to any online reservation service, you'll get a much quicker response time, and none of the attitude!

At any cost, it does not look like OW flies HKG-CAN, nor CAN-PVG, nor PVG-NRT. You would have to purchase these tickets separately.

Hey.... didn't you ask this same question on the Star Alliance forum?

Well, okay.. I'll answer it here again for you too...

LON-SYD-MEL can be done on QF/BA
MEL-HKG can be done on QF or CX
HKG-CAN can be done by road
CAN-PVG-NRT can be done on a seperate ticket unless you fly PVG to HKG then HKG-NRT can be done with CX
NRT-LAX on AA
LAX-LHR on either AA or BA

Actually , it might look that it'll be better for you to do the routing with the *A.

It appears that RTW's on oneworld starting in France are 1000 cheaper than in the UK. So... does anyone know a travel agent in France that does RTW? And speaks English?

Cheers

Why don't you just call BA (or any travel agent you can find online ) in Dublin to issue ticket then.. ex-DUB fares should be the same as ex-CDG.

And I'm sure ex-DUB agents speak English

Ireland is one of the most expensive places in the world to start an xONE. The prices for origin in most of western EUR (not inc UK and Ireland) are the same. That is Belgium, Austria, Finland, Germany, France, Greece, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Denmark.

France DONEx 5768 6409 7178 8203
Ireland DONEx 7689 9497 10637 12156

meggles, no offence but start by reading the sticky thread on this forum, it should cover your basic questions.
