Anyone checked DONEX fares lately?

Has anyone done a recent check of the cheapest origins for each of the DONEX fares recently. Last conversations (albeit a month or so old) seem to point to Korea and RSA is this still the case and which is cheaper?

I need to get working on a new DONEX soon and thought I'd ask.

As a side question is it possible to originate a DONE4 in Asia that includes SWP, Africa and US and just transits Europe?

No - you touch it (or even in the case of ORD-DEL, fly over it) you pay for it.

On the prices, they are all on the Oneworld website, but I haven't seen news of any changes recently except those due to exchange rate effects.

Sorry I should clarify this. I'm looking for the cheapest prices in $US after the relevant exch rate conversion (actually in Aussie $'s would be even better but I won't push my luck)

Just trying to avoid having to spend an hour on a forex website doing conversions.

Thanks, Paul

Metinks if you are looking to save several hundred dollars on a xONEx, you should do the work yourself and post the results here. We would be most grateful.
