The *A website has been redesigned and it is now divided into different languages; no more regional sites.

If anyone has the relevant links can they please post them, or pm/email me? Ta.

I'm flying to WAW on LO (and back from KRK) in May via ORD, and I've been looking for seatmaps for LO which provide more information than what they have on their website. They're not listed on Seatguru, and SeatExpert indicates "coming soon." If anyone has a good link for LO's seat maps, I'd love to see it because (unfortunately) I will be in Y.

Also, may I suggest a separate list of *G Arrivals Lounges?

Welcome to Flyer Talk buhari100

Here is a link to *A RTW special economy fare rules (note the fare in the link is ex-NZ, it will be a higher fare ex-Australia).

RTWs cannot be booked online at the moment. You need to book through an airline or travel agent.

I was reading the rules from this sticky. Just wanted to be absolutely clear - I was reading that the first international segment is not changeable, does anyone know how strict this is being enforced e.g. will they let changing flight time (but still same day) go? Reason I ask is, I am planning a RTW ex-NRT but I prefer not to stay overnight in Tokyo .... but I am concerned if my flight into NRT is delayed/cancelled and missed the first international segment (e.g. from NRT to ICN). Thanks.

Aren't you just a no show then. If in first or business probably okay (subject to next flight not being sold out). May be more of a problem if in economy (or not). YMMV

There seems to be a range of redemption amounts for award travel among the different *A airlines. I have been searching now for almost an hour (I've been on the phone with US for over two trying to find an award flight), so please forgive me if this is somewhere and I just couldn't find it: Is there a thread that discusses which airline in *A has the best redemption rates for *A award travel?

IIRC HagbardViking has an award comparison chart across (some) *A FFPs [is there a link in the OP?]. However, it usually isn't that simple as each FFP has it's own rules about routing (what is allowed on one FFP may not be on another), some FFPs are zone based while others mileage based, some discriminate by airline, some have regular specials, some (eg UA MP) have much less availability (no good having cheap awards if you can hardly redeem), etc.
