Austrian TA?
I'm looking into a RTW starting/ticketed in Austria. I'd rather not wait until I land in Vienna to have it all ticketed, so does anyone know a good travel agent in Austria? I'm afraid my language skills are non-existant, so fluent English is a must. Thanks for any leads...

Why not book it with Austrian Airlines or Lauda themselves (and those airline ticketing agents for sure speak excellent english). I don't think any travel-agent in Austria (or Switzerland) will discount a Star-rtw.

I agree with Rudi. I dont know of anywhere that TA's will discount RTW, perhaps with the exception of Bangkok (??)

Maybe I don't understand the process...if a *A RTW starting/ending in Vienna is purchased and ticketed in Austria, then wouldn't it cost ATS57690? (This assumes business class, under 29K miles) What is the discount you are refering to?

gaucho and I are NOT referring to diso****s, we are referring to your intention tfor a good travel agent. We recommend to go to the airlines (Austrian or Lauda) and NOT to a travel agent.
