Feel free to direct me to existing threads. This is the kinda news I like to read these days. I could pull the trigger on a circumnavigation ticket for November in Business if all signs point to Go.
If you are about to book a round the world ticket for which you have found availability and are short a few thousand miles, go for it. As long as this this six or eight months in the future and you are confident that none of the UA or partner flights will be cancelled. Otherwise, I have some swampland in FL you may be interested in.
