    QR award availability down to 219 days???

    We booked the a380 night flight but both were available. Qsuites would be awesome but we like the timing of the 9pm flight and hope to connect to qr7 in DOH which is q suites to london anyway. I was planning on booking it all at once too, but after the last few days I lost confidence. All the...

    Booking award flights - disadvantages to booking individual sectors?

    OK 10am today SYD to DOH August 20, 2020 came back online. Based on what's been happening, i panicked and booked it, but now have to sort out a change fee to add the onwards flight tomorrow, and hope it doesnt get snapped up while i'm waiting on hold or something with Qantas. But at least we...

    QR award availability down to 219 days???

    It's good to feel like you're not the only one in this predicament. Kicking myself for not booking last week, but who could have known this would happen! I looked at all the alternatives but would prefer to avoid extra connections if we can. Don't quite have enough points to get home if we go...

    Booking award flights - disadvantages to booking individual sectors?

    Not absolutely set on QR but it was looking so good, and we were all ready to book after all our "practicing". We have gotten ourselves excited about flying the "worlds best business class" on the DOH to LHR route in q suites. I checked out the SYD-PER-DOH-LHR idea, it's a lot of extra points...

    Booking award flights - disadvantages to booking individual sectors?

    It's like you are exactly the same as me! I also have the Qantas credit card and I'm almost finished my first month, hopefully the points get posted quickly. We planned to book tomorrow but now that's not looking likely. We are flexible so will watch it through the week and see what happens...

    Booking award flights - disadvantages to booking individual sectors?

    OK i spoke to Qantas on the phone today. They can see commercial flights SYD to DOH, but also can't see any reward availability 361 days out, or any other days in August 2020, so I can't even call up to process my booking tomorrow. The only flights I can book are SYD to HKG on Cathay, HKG to...

    Booking award flights - disadvantages to booking individual sectors?

    Haha yep our backups are all QR but from other cities. The only direct flight I could find in August 2020 was from PERTH to Doha. It's all just vanished! I'm trying to book for real on the weekend so am prepared to call up if needed. Otherwise we are flexible with dates so can wait and see.

    Booking award flights - disadvantages to booking individual sectors?

    It was there from SYD yesterday, I've been doing the same thing and checking every day. Now that I'm two days away from booking, the whole thing falls apart. I confirmed with Qantas they can see the flights at their end (although no seats in business but hey, it's 2pm now). Will keep an eye in...

    Booking award flights - disadvantages to booking individual sectors?

    Very timely that this thread has come up. I am planning to do something very similar. SYD to DOH and then DOH to LHR. Did anyone else notice today that all the direct flights form SYD to DOH have disappeared from the Qantas system? Or is it just me. I've been tracking it for 3 weeks and it's the...

    AAA hotel discounts - new NRMA card has no AAA logo

    Hi all I usually try and book AAA rates at hotels in the US, when it's a good deal. The NRMA card had a AAA logo on the back, as well as the 3 digit code. I got issued a new NRMA card out of the blue a while back, and it is a whole different style. It doesnt have the AAA logo or number on the...
