Ouch! That's a few points back in the account...

Sorry forgot to mention it was VA (amended the heading and post)

With the state of the AUD decided to buy an X5 and finally go to Tasmania for a look around instead.

All up cancellation cost of $480.

Considering the total lack of reward seats available next year, I wonder if these will go back into the reward pool or will they go *poof* and disappear.

Not showing as available…but then someone may have picked them up already???

Was considering doing the same thing due to the $$$ but all F fares for internal flights are non refundable and that would cost me over 3K so still going. Just not a very good value holiday now

Hi Civinod,
Did you manage 3 J redemptions on the one flight? Interested to hear how you managed that given anecdotally, any more than 2 J award seats on the one flight is very difficult.

Hi Albyd,

I booked these the day the seats the first day they were released. 3 seems to be Ok and a couple of years ago 4 was Ok.

Getting harder and harder to get seats.

I haven't seen my forfeited seats come up. I think maybe they will be sold rather than put back in the pool.
