hi old regular traveller needs advise

[kerrivv]

Hi old traveller that I used to travel a lot using circle pacific and rtw business air fares. Are these still available and if so where is the best way to book? Look at travelling may/june 2025.

Welcome to AFF.

As this is a welcome thread you're not likely to find the type of reply you're looking for.

I'd encourage you to post your question in a relevant thread.

Welcome. From memory they should still be available and definitely use a travel agent that knows or books these things.

Bunch of different rules and fares based on what you're looking for.

As far as I know they are still about - both OneWord and Star Alliance versions. You'd need to contact a travel agent I think. A brinks and mortar type, preferably.

Welcome @kerrivv !
There's a good chance that any number of folks here will have recent experience with these products.
As per @RooFlyer a travel agent will likely be involved - oneworld says either a TA or member airline (many will go straight to a TA!). Yet they still trust you with RTW!
Star Alliance still let you book your own Circle Pacific and more.

Still available with OW & Star
Oneworld--> RTW Flights: Round The World Airline Tickets - RTW
The OW online tool for *ONE* / *GLOB* is very buggy. No idea if it does circle pacific. If an error, the error message can have nothing to do with the actual error.
QF is the default issuer for many OW online RTW itineraries. Many/most QF phone agents have little knowledge of the detailed rules. They can "make up" rules and/or not follow the rules.

A knowledgeable travel agent worth the TA's fee.

Here's a thread for a *ONE* buying processs.

Thread 'My DONE4 (oneworld RTW) booking experience'

Sep 16, 2023

Long time lurker here, wanted to share the process of planning and booking a oneworld round the world ticket to help others as it can be complex.

The background is I'm moving to HKG soon, and yearly HKG-MEL-HKG trips back home is going to be on the table.
After a bit of research here and on FlyerTalk, there seems to be a way to (ab)use DONE4 fares to get some cheap flights tacked onto HKG-MEL-HKG
D fares are also much easier to find than U reward seats, plus give a ton of status / miles.
(disclaimer: don't attempt this without fully reading and understanding the rules, current rules...
