Tool for checking taxes.

A couple more links added to the OP.

But wait, isn't XG/Clickair the Spanish LCC partly-owned by Iberia, that is in the process of merging with Vueling? There is another airline I've heard of, Click Mexicana, that could be joining OW with Mexicana? http://www.clickmx.com

I think this is very useful

Best places to purchase RTW Oneworld tickets?
 

Is there a thread or site that lists the current fares for purchasing Oneworld RTW tickets in various cities? Bangkok, Colombo, Cairo, Tokyo have been good but what is good now?

Thanks!

Look at these for a guide; not latest prices though:

• WearyBizTrvlr 's RTW comparison spreadsheet

This one a bit more up to date but harder to compare:

• oneworld.com xONX Fare Estimate

Posts 166 and 175 from the this thread provide quite a bit of insight into when and how fuel (YQ) surcharges are collected. This might be useful info to have in one of the "stickies" (either this one or the xONEx FAQ).

Add Thailand, or so I hear.

Three more threads for the list (good work by FLYGVA ^ )

Someone recently posted a link to a very useful map showing the boundaries of the OW "continents" as defined for an xONEx. I've tried to find the post, but without success. Here's the link: http://www.oneworld.com/content/library/c2852-4_poster.pdf.

I think the map dates from April 1st, 2007, so there could be some minor updates. There certainly appear to be some anomalies: e.g. The Galapagos Islands off Ecuador are shown as part of N. America, which I rather doubt. Nevertheless, it could prove useful as a tool when planning.

Edited to add: Tracked it down - Thanks, serfty, for this

Is there any place to check oneworld award availability such as the *a ANA tool?

I have purchased KVS but it hiccouphs on EZE-SCL.

For the few routes that cannot be checked via KVS Tool (such as EZE-SCL), you can use the BAEC website:

• Sign-up for BAEC Membership at https://www.BritishAirways.com/trave...l/public/en_gb
• Search for awards at https://www.BritishAirways.com/trave...n_type=STD_RED

Thanks

For Star Alliance there is a great spreadsheet which shows you which classes will earn you what miles on the various alliance carriers. Is there such a thing for OW carriers?

The StarAlliance one by BlondeBomber is at http://members.shaw.ca/deercroft/download.html and called STAR ALLIANCE MILEAGE EARNING CROSS TABLE.

Bump. Great question.
