ONE price estimates
I may have missed this if someone has already posted it - if so, apologies 
I just updated the OW desktop timetable, and see that it will now give a price estimate of a ONE itinerary (presumably the base fare, excluding taxes). So it seems after years of having "old" data, we have two sources of up-to-date info now (the other being EF)

Yes it is quite useless at interpreting the rules. Since when is xxx-LHR; LGW-xxx considered 3 sectors??

The real significance of this enhancement is that Oneworld appears to be trying to sell more OWE tickets -- putting to rest speculation that some of the OW airlines were not happy with this fare. Though I do notice a lot of flights with D0J9 and even A0F9 these days (making A/D available only on less desirable flight times, or days of week).
