Answer, you see that the price has increased since the 1.9.7 spreadsheet, which shows the older/cheaper prices:

Oh. Well, my current DONE04 ends in CAI. I'm not sure there is much advantage now to buying separate ticket to BKK and then originating future RTW's in Thailand. Sri Lanka still intriguing.

I will be picking my next AONE3 up in DOH at the weekend. CX's GSA has been pretty responsive, although it has been a bit of a learning experience...
One advantage is that it is quite cheap (though not as cheap as MRU, obviously), the other is that I can finish my previous ex-CAI AONE3 there without any additional cost of getting to a new start location.

DONE4 ex BKK
I have used Green Travel (www.greentravel2000.com) in Bangkok for several RTW fares and can recommend them. They also quote THB262,645 ex taxes.
They have amazing deals on for RTW fares on EK/UA if their routes suit. Note the non stop EK DXB/JFK is not allowed on that deal.

Plus the USD has devalued against the THB over the past year which hasn't helped things. That price you saw months ago is higher now.

Wow. This is an awesome fare. I always like to split up my RTW, and usually buy separate ticket BKK-MIA-BKK to go home and have break for 4-6 months before resuming RTW in BKK. This Emirates deal makes that trip break very intriguing. Thanks for tip.
