It was a dream a few years ago, especially for the price. Had a real possibility, and something that began more than 5,000 euros (7,250 dollars) is now a reality for a little over 2,000 euros (3,000 dollars). As the airline industry has grown and the sky has been progressively "released" for new competitors Round the World Fares have fallen suddenly and now the dream to be a Round the World trip is pure reality.
The thing is ... where to start withRound the World planning? Sometimes it is difficult enough to plan a trip to a country and tell the guys that they almost 1.000 airports available to country, and you have to choose between them all. Well, it can be quite difficult and I really do not want this help. Seriously, this is your choice, and there are no real recommendations, just follow your dreams.
Another thing is to decide which is the best provider, either in price and quality ofServices to decide when to go for this adventure. It is necessary to understand that there is a round the world trip is not something from one airline alone, but instead come from alliances of airlines. The 3 large, the operation of the Round the World option and much more on the market today are the Star Alliance, One World and Sky Team. I'll introduce you to the three of them and choose which best suits your needs.
Star Alliance constricts 841 airports in 157 countries. AirCanada, Lufthansa, Thai, Air New Zealand, Scandinavian Airlines, United, Singapore Airlines, U.S. Airways, Austrian, Spanair, Swiss ... These are some of the major airlines with which they work, making a total of 17 years. They allow you a maximum of 15 stopovers, they examine the remains in a city for more than 24 hours, and you can travel a maximum of 39,000 miles.
With regard to the scales set for a trip around the world they are about the class that you want and from the number of tripsMiles you do, from 26,000 to 39,000, divided into 4 levels of pricing. The only problem is that they not provide exact numbers in their web page, and you must plan your route, give your personal information, and click access to a screen where the price is calculated. The interactive system for planning your trip is very good, but I think it's a big mistake not to give value all tariffs.
On the other side of the One World has an offer of 10 different airlines. American Airlines, British Airways,Cathay Pacific, Finnair, Iberia, Japan Airlines, Qantas, Royal Jordanian and LAN are some of their members. Dragonair, as the best airline in China, they recently went to the first of November. Even if they have less than their competitors, airlines of Star Alliance, One World has managed to cover 700 airports in over 150 countries.
In addition, they have two different options for the Round the World Tour. You use this essential airline and another which is called GlobalExplorer for an additional charge you can use for the airlines who are not members of the alliance. Duration of the trip goes from 10 days to 12 months, so that you have completely free to decide, depending on availability
Regarding the price, it will depend on the number of continents visited, and the class you want in. In view of the economy class travel will be prizes of $ 3900 for the 3-continent itinerary (2700 euros) to $ 5300 (3650 euros) for the 6-continentsTravel, airlines are not advanced option.
Finally, Sky Team is not left at all, with some of the biggest European airlines such as Alitalia, Air France, KLM and Aeroflot. Does the rest of the largest airlines in the world that do not belong to other alliances, with names such as Aeromexico, China Southern, Continental Airlines, Delta and Korean Air, in the amount of 11 plus 3 affiliated airlines. With 841 cities in 162 countries, it has perhaps the widest range ofOperations.
The situation is the same in terms of time allowed to travel, varying from 10 days to 1 years, and they have 3 different options depending on your needs, flexibility and pricing. Your choice, and with the Star Alliance, can vary 3 to 15 stops along the route. The offer includes 3 price levels for 29,000, 34,000 and 39,000 miles, and also depends on the class. Taking an example with the economy class, we could travel 29,000 miles for $ 3450 at (2380Euro), $ 4420 for the world tour of 34,000 miles (3,049 euros) and up to a maximum of 39,000 miles that cost $ 5500 (3800 euros) approximately.
As you can see, choose, the Round the World option that you prefer is not really easy. Finally, it would, my best recommendation to select the Alliance, depending on your dream destinations. Plan your trip before you go, what they are offering a selection of 3 to 15 cities that want to visit, then drag theRows in a world map, and then take a look at one of the 3 alliances is able to bring you the most of your goals. The price variance exists, but the strong competence between the three of them makes a difference too little to accommodate them. Plan the trip of your dreams, and just choose whoever wants to take you there!
