oneworld Round-the-World Fares

This page describes oneworld round-the-world (RTW) fare types.  These special fares allow one to construct globe-circling itineraries which connect through and stopover at many different destinations.  For the traveller wanting to see many places, these fares offer great flexibility.  For frequent flyer addicts (who isn't?), they mean a boatload of miles.  Who could ojbect to that?

The Global Explorer is a mileage-based RTW fare.  One is limited to 26k, 29k, or 34k (base) miles, depending on fare type/class.

The oneworld Explorer (commonly abbreviated OWE) is a continent-based RTW fare.  One can buy 3-, 4-, 5-, or 6-continent fares with routing limited to a set number of sectors in each region and restrictions on how one travels between the continents.
