I am planning an RTW this summer. My flight will be nyc-tlv-mnl-nyc. can someone tell me which type of RTW ticket works best for me? also when it comes to pricing does each airline price it differently or is it all the same? thnks

economy ? business ? first?

last I checked Star RTWs require a minimum of three stopovers and you only have two so that could present a problem . pricing should be the same in terms of fare however taxes/security surcharges may differ between carriers

As kiwiandrew mentioned, you'll need a minimum of 3 stopovers.

For prices, rules etc. have a look at WearyBizTrvlr's RTW comparison spreadsheet and the *A RTW rules in the *A useful reference links in the first post.

You can also download the *A RTW calculator on the *A homepage to check out a routing and see how which RTWSTAR ticket you need.

you can make a stopover out of it (>24h) but you could fly for example nyc-fra-tlv without a stopover on a direct connection.
