Taken 4(2+2) business class round the world, in 2017 and 2019, Syd-London-NY-HK-Haneda-Syd and booked almost 11 months before.. points were around 280K/each on Qantas and now 280K is around 320K I think(show only) but in reality its around million points. This is a best way to loose a long time customer for qantas since its total rip off now. Covid is one thing but post covid, this is a daylight robbery. As it is Qantas FF program is nothing but a sham...
 
I must have missed the thread on the UA deal…😔. I might have even pondered that to bump my VA status one last time…

But of all that, I’m surprised you found a BKK-SYD QF J CR! In either direction on that route, J CRs are rarer than rocking horse poo. Why? 🤷‍♂️
