RTW in premium economy

[rechoboam]

Not sure which forum this goes in sorry...looking for RTW in PE (or mostly PE) in January. not many stops. One on each continent would be fine. Trying to get to Oaxaca, Mexico in particular. I am Gold on SQ til October only, nothing else useful apart from a few Emirates points but wanting status for Emirates and El Al for when El Al goes direct Aus-Israel.

Not even sure where to start or whether it can be booked online?

A relatively simple RTW such as you describe might be satisfied by a Lufthansa (Star Alliance) or a Finnair (OneWorld) 'RTWs' (they don't actually have to go round the globe) .

Here is an AFF Gazette article about the Finnair product: https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/finnair-raises-business-class-round-the-world-airfares/

and here is an earlier article that looks at both LH and AY: https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/great-value-round-the-world-tickets/

I don't know about the state of PE on these products, sorry.

You need to book these via a travel agent (a good one, not 'Flight Centre' type.

There are both OneWorld and Star Alliance RTW products, but these are much more extensive, and probably more expensive for what you need.

You may need to ask an agent or call someone regarding Oneworld RTW (or Circle Pacific even?) fares, the site/page for that doesn’t have a PE option.

The oneworld RTW has PE as a per sector surcharge on a LONEx/LGLOBnn.
The online booking tool had a check box to select PE on that sector. Not sure if it is still on the new version, not that the online tool is very useful.
