Interesting! This would be great news, though it depends to what extent you can use points on AF/KLM. Just released on June 18th and they mention "Classic Flight Rewards" so maybe they won't be overhauled so much?

I guess partly it depends on the points cost. Many of us won't mind paying an extra 5-10k points to get to the USA if there is greater availability on QF to do so. But more than this would be a problem. A lot of us like QFF because of the partner airlines. Plenty of us have booked Emirates F...

Amex changes were awful. Having Platinum Edge, Platinum Charge and Explorer meant one could get 3ppd on restaurants and dining, 3ppd at supermarkets with 2ppd on everything else once Explorer was linked. The 3ppd at supermarkets was great for gift card buying - literally dozens of different...

I don't think this will be a whole suite of coughty changes (eg like the recent Amex devaluations). They wouldn't call a big press conference and hype it this way. I think the overall net effect will be negative, but maybe not that negative. And there may be some flyers for whom they end up...

As far as I know OW/Qantas status doesn't count for anything with Emirates bookings. Availability has tightened up a lot - definitely a lot more since then.

Emirates aren't OW so I would be very surprised if they're coordinating things with the other OW airlines. My personal (and maybe somewhat optimistic) theory is that maybe they have restricted availability times to 297 days prior similar to how Qantas have limited it to their non Gold/Platinum...

Yep late Sept wouldnt be visible for another 20 days or so. So far though we should be able to see availability DXB - SYD/MEL to September 10th and there is nothing. I would have hoped early September would provide some joy since Euro holidays are over but obviously not. There is however some...

On this same topic - looking to book JFK - DXB - MEL (or SYD) next year in Emirates F. Would likely be looking at September anyway, but doing dummy searches on Qantas currently and there's nothing up til late August so far for DXB - MEL/SYD (plenty from JFK - DXB). In people's experiences does...
