One presumes this is using the Oneworld Explorer?

You cannot return to Europe from Cape Town, even if just connecting.

There is no Oneworld service between Vancouver and Los Angeles (uses Alaska Airlines, not a Oneworld member.)

FRA-LHR-CDG-LHR seems like a waste of expensive OW coupons for such short (and locally cheap) flights.

To include Africa you would have to route BKK-SIN-HKG-JNB-CPT-LHR or some such.

Keep working on it!

Not so cheap after taxes, but I agree. Personally I'd do London-Paris by train: city center to city center, fast, super comfort, no airport hassles,...

1. Why not? :eek:

2. Qantas.

3. There is no F for HKG-JNB.

1. Because the double entry to Europe rule says you can't.
2. Qantas does YVR-SFO (seasonally), not YVR-LAX.
3. That depends on the season.

1. Because the rules prohibit a second entry of Europe unless transiting to another continent w/o stopover to/from NBO, ACC, EBB, DAR OR LOS.

2. You're confusing QF codeshares on AS metal with OW metal. If you want to go YVR-SFO-YVR that's okay (provided it's during QF's seasonal service on that route.) No non-OW metal allowed on these fares. You can use (unallocated it appears) additional coupons to go SFO-LAX-SFO to complete the west coast portion, again provided it's during QF's YVR period.

3. So this is a first class ticket? Anyway, HKG-JNB has F for part of the year.

Edited to add - Viajero beat me to it.

I know that.

Even then, the route is serviced by a 343 and not a 744.

You're welcome.

I think your best bet is just to purchase all point to point full fare F Class tickets sicne $$$ is no object to you and these AONEX fares are really not designed for people like yourself

It's valid.

simongr Jun 5, 2007 9:29 pm

Are you actually trying to get these places or is some of this mileage running (or is the technical term mileage maximising within and exising ticket?)

I clock it at 42,163 on mileage monkey. Its only 13 flights as well - seems awfully wasteful to me...

Just putting in SIN-NRT-HKG gives you an easy 3K extra.

Is this going to be a AONE4 or AONE3

Kiwi Flyer Jun 5, 2007 10:30 pm

The latest itin is an AONE5!

The OP isn't mileage running.
