Would you, by any chance, have the fares from Tokyo and Hanoi ?
Thanks in advance !

You can look them up yourself on the skyteam RTW tool.

Sorry if this is a repeat question, but it seems that the skyteam RTW tool does NOT give the option of scheduling a RTW in first class.. am I correct, and if so, how may I schedule one? I am usually a One World Alliance flyer .. thank you

Scheduling yes, as it is independent of the fare.
Only Air France and Korean air have real First Class on Skyteam.
Delta First class corresponds to business, as all others members of the alliance.
Now you can test the tool;)

RTW3 from Tokyo, in First
[KVS Availability Tool 7.4.2 - Routing Rules: NRT-NRT/AF/FRTWSKY3/*]
RTW3 from Hanoi, in First
[KVS Availability Tool 7.4.2 - Routing Rules: HAN-HAN/AF/FRTWSKY3/*]

Thanks so much.. however I must be missing something as the online tool still will not price a RTW first class ticket from NRT-CDG-JFK-LAX-ICN-NRT... does anyone know of a US travel agent that can help me out? Thanks so very much...

RTW tool can not price First class itinirary.
You may contact the assistance for asking how to book in First , but AFAIK, booking is only possible in the origin country, for your travel in Japan.
However, several years ago, it was possible with south african TA specialized (for travel from SA, of course)
Perhaps the rules have changed as it seems possible to book and pay any travel with the tool (in eco and in biz)
Tell us what they told you by phone or mail.

Delta RTW missing from website
 

I wanted to blog about my upcoming rtw and decided to add a link to the relevant delta.com page. I was unable to find any reference to the program with a variety of search tricks. I called Delta and they confirmed the program was still active. I transferred to the online desk and the person there said that the information had indeed been removed from the delta site and that she had 'no idea' why they had done that. :confused:

Any thoughts?

There are references to RTW awards in the 2014 SkyMiles Membership Guide, still available online.

I am thinking about a Skyteam F RTW originating in the US at sometime next spring. Can someone advise of a travel agent in the US that is familiar with booking Skyteam F since it cannot be booked online.

Delta seems to be the best way to book awards
They perhaps tell you the way to book paid RTW
1-800-323- 2323
Korean air or Air France in US will probably help you too.
Several years ago I changed a RTW segment with a fee in San Francisco Air France agency
Remember that RTW from US is the most expensive, the lowest seems today be from South african ...

When will they have IT systems working properly :mad:
I'm trying to use the RTW planner on Skyteam site. After you have entered your city of departure, it is impossible to add cities. When you click on the + sign, it's just emptying the field with the 1st city. So annoying...:rolleyes:
I tried from a Mac, from a PC, from a tablet, different browsers. Nothing works.
Does any of you see the same bug ?
