All these rules are really interpreted by the agent involved. Just need to find a willing agent to issue the ticket according to his/her understanding of the rule. I find the rule quite vague in general. |

2019-Feb-11 New Version of the Rule Sheet
The rule sheet is again available on the Oneworld web site
(Home Page --> Global Travel --> Oneworld Explorer --> FAQ "How is my Fare Calculated" --> "Click here for full fare rules and conditions") I'm not sure of the significance of this change. The following paragraph has been removed from Rule 15 "Sales restrictions" When travel originates in a country for which a specific local currency fares is published and the ticket is sold in another country, the fare will be that published for the country of origin converted to the currency of the country of sale at the bank selling rate. Other than the above, there are only minor changes from the version of 2019-Jan-08, according to diffchecker)A comment at the top: Eff 1 September 2018 Part of Rule 4(j) has changed• Fares ex Egypt introduced • Para 4 (j) Open Skies removed as an affiliated airline of BA From: QF operated services within USA (eg LAX-JFK vv) not permitted unless booked as a through flight segment between Australia & USA (eg SYD-JFK vv) To:QF operated services within USA (eg LAX-JFK vv) not permitted unless booked in conjunction with a QF operated and marketed online connection or stopover flight at LAX Some changes to the list of affiliated airlinesSome other, very minor changes |

Yes, it is one flight coupon. Provided you book it as a through-flight of course. If you stop for several days in LAX, it is two flights.
Cool. Thanks. |

Wiki Created
I obviously have too much time on my hands - because I've created a wiki for this thread that lists in reverse chronological order the changes that have occurred to the Oneworld Explorer rule sheet - going back to 2009
I may well have missed some changes - so feel free to make corrections :D |
