Oneworld First Class Global Explorer AGLOB34 Prices
* Price checked 5th January 2026
“This Oneworld Economy Class Round The World ticket has a 34,000 mile limit and permits 15 stopovers. However only two are permitted in the Region of Origin and four in any other region.Â
The Oneworld First Class tickets are hampered by the limited number of routes which offer a First Class cabin. First Class cabins tend to only be offered on longer routes which can make it tricky to make full use of the 15 permitted stopovers. First Class cabins tend to only have 4 – 14 seats making availability severely limited, especially for larger parties.Â
Once you have put your itinerary together you will know how many sectors you have been able to book in First Class. Comparing the First Class fare with the equivalent Business Class fare will let you work out how much of a premium you are paying per flight and whether this is worth it for you.”

Oneworld AGLOB34 tickets are priced according to the country of departure, even when that ticket is sold in another country. The table shows the relative AGLOB34 fare levels from various countries around the world when converted into UK Pounds Sterling (GBP)*.
In many cases it may be worth departing from a country other than your own and purchasing an additional positioning flight to and from the point of depature.
Within Europe departing from Norway rather than the UK will save you around GBP 3,300, or departing Norway rather than Germany will save you around EUR 3,600.
You would be crazy to purchase a ticket departing from Singapore when departing from Malaysia will save around 28% on the base fare, and if you can find a reasonably priced positioning flight to Japan, you could save around 44%.
Long distance positioning flights might also pay. If you are from the USA departing from Norway can save you around USD 5,000 and departing from Japan can save you around USD 6,000.
Commencing your round the world ticket in a country other than your own effectively creates extra stopovers in the country of departure. It can also provide an extra sidetrip if you don’t want your round the world trip to last a full year. For instance if you are from Malaysia but choose to depart from India you could take a positioning flight to India, spend a few days then commence your round the world ticket by using the first sector to fly from India back to Malaysia. Spend a few weeks or months back in Malaysia then commence your round the world trip proper with a flight from Kuala Lumpur to anywhere.
