I assume at some point Qantas will raise the amount of points needed for award flights too. We will wait until it gets closer to cancel, but it's looking very unlikely that we will be able to go. Such a shame :)

I know, it was such a hassle to get these award flights and now we have to click that button to cancel them 😭😭 We're thinking of trying to rebook for around May/June next year and hoping this is all sorted by then. Probably have to go Syd to Hong Kong, then Doha, then London to get a Qatar...

Did you book through Qantas? If you did, I think we just deal with Qantas and not Qatar...and if they are classic awards then you cancel and get the points and taxes refunded or try and rebook for next year when the dates become available but there would have to be an award seat available to...

It's so hard to know what will happen. We have booked all our hotels and a couple of other things, but if we have to cancel we probably would get most of our money back, maximum loss maybe around $1,000 or so, which is not the end of the world in our current situation. Let's keep hoping and...

Yes, silver lining is that the classic awards are refundable. Will be such a shame if we lose these flights 😩 I did propose the same thing the other day, just take the flight and come home haha 🛩️ I guess we just have to wait and see what happens. Part of me is sure we will have to cancel, but...

Yup 😣 5 week trip to Europe aside, it's going to be near impossible to get new flights to London or nearby on QR for 2021. There's never any availability from Oz to DOH anymore. The flights are the part I will be the most disappointed about if we do need to cancel 😢

So after all this stress and hassle acquiring business class flights on Qatar Airways for 20 August 2020, I am hoping and praying we don't end up having to cancel due to the virus 😭

To visit family locally first, for sure. However, we have oneworld classic award business flights to London on Qatar Airways at the end of August, flying home business on Singapore Airlines using Kris flyer end of September. Will be so disappointed if we can't go...do you know how hard it...

OK this makes me feel better. It's probably fine then. This QR award flight just makes me nervous, I keep waiting for something to get cancelled or for us to get downgraded or something. I won't breathe easy until we are in our business class seats and the plane has taken off 😂

I eventually got an email from Qantas advising of the time change. We are on the a380 flight SYD to DOH and it arrives in DOH at 530am instead of 515am now. Still curious if this is what caused the eticket numbers to change? Is that normal? I don't normally take much notice of the eticket number.

Hi all Booked QR J award flights SYD to LHR back in August 2019. Eticket was issued by Qantas no problem. Tonight i just got an unexpected and unexplained eticket emailed to me from Qantas. I have noticed the flight arrival time in Doha has changed by 15 minutes. This is not a concern...

What about errors that work in your favour? I too have dealt with confusion and incompetence at the call centres. I find the AU/NZ call centres to be much easier to deal with as at least they understand your question the first time you ask and can have a conversation with you. The offshore call...

It's better than the zero seats that we're available for a while there, but yes not ideal for most!

Ha no I never tried. Hopefully someone can shed some light 😂

If you have Qantas premier through Qantas Money you can still get the citibank sign up bonuses. Citi just administer the Qantas premier card, but it's not a citibank product as such.

OK for anyone who was wondering, I got 109141, plus 2500 from some other promo. Enough to book our 6th night at the Waldorf London with points for 2020, with 33,000 left over :)

Do you have enough points to fly business Singapore to Oz? Hopefully you can book using Qantas or BA, not sure who else flies direct from Singapore. I think BA is a little easier to book, maybe do a night or so in Singapore if the flights are not on the same ticket :) At least you got most of...

Nothing out of Doha into Oz for a few weeks now. We booked our return flight from Frankfurt to Syd on Singapore Airlines in business. Will be fun to try Qatar on the way to London and Singapore on the way home. At least they are both in business. I now have 600 velocity points, that's how tight...

WOW very helpful and inventive for an offshore call centre. Well done to her! Was the lady on the phone really quiet and hard to hear? I want to call QR again but it was so hard to hear the last two times that I called, so I am hesitant to call again. If she wasn't quiet, do you remember what...

OK great that's what I thought. Probably just can't check in online but that's ok since we have already selected seats etc.
