I'd thought about buying one of the tickets for the winter break, but opted for a snowboarding holiday instead. Traveling for 4 months in NewZealand and Australia and a year in S.E. Asia was an amazing experience and something that far too few Americans do. Including airfare it cost me about $7500 to travel for those 16 months (expensive yes, but far more rewarding than paying off my student loans). I spent most of my time hiking, taking cooking classes, reading books, and learning new languages. I love to go places that are off the beaten tourist track and make friends with the ladies at the food stalls in the market. What sort of details are you looking for? Peterさん、

They are scheduled to be delivered to those who were fortunate enough to order one on January 2nd. Then, we'll have to wait for the blogs to start reporting. I suppose at the value they state, they must at least include some sort of iPod, or even a Mac mini. Emilさん、

RTW tickets often don't have high-low seasons. Also, Canada seems to have better pricing plans, since more Canadians than Americans will make that sort of trip. Europeans get the best-priced tickets though, since there's even higher demand there. I left on September 1st and was set to come back in mid-summer. RTW tickets often don’t have high-low seasons.
