Exactly what do this chart do? What do the columns mean and the all the numbers?
Thank you for answering. I really do want to understand.

Hi David. The sticky will surely help, but the tables in this post are light on labels.
The three tables posted as seperate replies to this same thread list the prices, by country, for the First Class (AONEx), Business Class (DONEx) and Economy Class (LONEx) OneWorld RTW Explorer products. The unlabelled columns are for when "x" in the above equals 3, 4, 5 or 6 - i.e. 3 continents, 4 continents, etc.
As you can see, price varies a lot by where you purchase (and start) your RTW trip, and some countries can be relatively cheap in one class, while expensive in others (e.g. the UK, where the LONEx is cheap, but the premium class products are very expensive).

Hi,
Is the price from Mauritius still 6150 USD for the AONE4 ?
Does BA122 Mauritius-LHR have First Class ?
Best regards,
Sebastian

Exchange rates have also been updated.

Update: Yes there is a fare from Syria. See http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showp...21&postcount=7

In other words, the spreadsheet info is done on a best-effort basis, but is likely to be outdated or incorrect in some instances. So anyone with more accurate or up-to-date info, please email or PM me.
Parenthetically, I'll be releasing a minor update later today.

Oh, and my thanks to WBT also.

Thanks for the kind words. 
I've just posted a minor update, with new fare levels for a number of *A origins, as well as an update of fx rates.

Perhaps bad news ex-CAI
The Qantas Industry site which used to have the xONEx fares is now password protected, but some pages are still publicly accessible . Clicking around I found this:
(Emphasis added.)
Something tells me that it will not be a fare reduction.
