Is there anywhere I can book the VS RTW fare online?

I've not found anywhere -- I normally use Trailfinders.

VS partner with http://www.greatescapade.com for RTW tickets. (Other airlines involved are Singapore Airlines & Air New Zealand). Thing is that, now that ANZ offer flights to AKL via Hong Kong (as well as LAX), they are the only airline in the world (ISTBC!!) to now offer a true RTW offering on a single airline! If you're after business class RTW then ANZ's offering is much cheaper than Great Escapade's.

Cheers

Can't book online though. This is just a promo website that was jointly funded by VS / SQ / NZ, so far as I can tell.

Thanks Rob, something told me I wouldn't be 100% correct on this!
