Cost to Fly around the World

Postprocessing - RTW coupling

Comprises 55,818 km (34,685 miles) of flight distance. Travels through 11 different continents for 157 consecutive hour s/7 consecutive day s/7. Totals for six continental departures? That number is near what Airtreks and STA are offering for R&TW parcels and significantly lower than Oneworld, Skyteam or Star Alliance with their R&TW fares (not to speak of our routes not matching their ticketing rules).

But what we are really here to pay for is our flexible approach. We will be able to really experience the luxuries of our journey without being bound to any predetermined goals or schedules: free exploration and room to experience. We wanted to see what these prices would be, but we don't actually intend to pay for them.

In order to find out how we will book our RTW under $500 flight, see my article "How Many Miles Does It Take to Travel Around the World.
