    Multi City booking

    Ok thanks - looking again - I think it might because the Milan - Doha leg only has availability in Business; but Doha - Perth only has availability in First, so it can't 'price' the reward?

    Multi City booking

    Can anyone confirm if this holds true for Velocity redemptions? I am looking to book a multi-city option (Milan - Doha - Perth)...with <24 hour stopover in Doha. Cannot do so online, so hopefully can be done by phone, but want to know if it is priced as 'one itinerary' rather than two distinct...

    Joint waitlist across two accounts

    Question I think I know the answer to but hoping to be surprised… My wife and I both individually have enough points for J seats - in our own separate KrisFlyer accounts. The flights / dates we are looking at all require us to go on waitlist - is there a way to join the waitlist “together”...

    Qantas extends status extensions until end June 2023 (previously December 2022)

    Anyone ever had any success sweet talking their way into Qantas First Lounge - my QFF Platinum expires end July this year. I have a trip booked to Europe mid August ... really would love 'one last meal'. Wondering if I will have any luck pleading my case with a smile at the Lounge desk of 'hope...

    Adding a child to a KF redemption booking / book for a child standalone?

    Talking to myself here a little...but pleasingly Singapore Air called today (unprompted) and said they had noticed the infant fare was not refunded and that they would process the request. Through this process I noticed that another infant booking last year wasn't refunded...which they checked...

    Adding a child to a KF redemption booking / book for a child standalone?

    Anyone have any experience around refunds for infants on Krisflyer bookings...I had linked an infant to my booking (which cost me $276) which I have now had to cancel. Now that I have cancelled my redemption, the receipt details the Miles refunded, plus the net impact of tax/fees refunded or...

    What time is Singapore Airlines availability added to Velocity?

    What is the availability of Singapore Airlines flights through Velocity in J? I had a quick look now for the furthest period available and seems that you can only select Premium Economy, rather than J awards (I checked Syd-Singapore)? Is this typically the case? Krisflyer is showing...

    The Virgin Australia Newbie Questions Thread

    Trying to find a Velocity search hack tool I'm sure I read here on this forum somewhere... Someone posted a change to the URL in the search bar for Velocity redemptions where changing one or two words meant only business/J rewards showed up to avoid manually having to click through each...

    No Virgin Redemptions Using Krisflyer Miles

    Yep i worked this out last night - not a smart move...in any event, my waitlist came through last night (after less than 48 hours), so crisis averted

    No Virgin Redemptions Using Krisflyer Miles

    Somewhat related question - my wife has some points, but doesn't have enough quite Krisflyer points in her account, and I don't have quite enough in mine to book for her myself... My understanding is you can't transfer Krisflyer points between family members (unlike Qantas), so is there any...

    Qantas extends status extensions until end June 2023 (previously December 2022)

    Thanks, am curious how do I read the 'status hold' - Putting aside that it has been >6 months, it says "Status Hold is available for parents who are taking at least six consecutive months leave from paid employment to spend time with their family. Both parents can apply" As I said, my wife...

    Aeroplan (Air Canada) is now selling points

    One thing I was curious about - there is great availability for Singapore Air J flights...my question though is, for the example below...who wears the risk on the 'stopover' portion given it is so short. Eg if I booked the reward seat via Aeroplan, and then my flight was delayed into Singapore...

    I looked into this, but it is for primary carer (ie not working) - but I still am

    Qantas extends status extensions until end June 2023 (previously December 2022)

    Anyone have any stories of Qantas using 'discretion' to extend status? Have obviously benefitted from extensions through the COVID window and beyond, my Platinum status rolls of end of July 2023. I'm no hope of retaining...had a baby in last 12 months, plus way less business travel (partly...

    Qantas reward seats Syd to Sin in 2023

    I was in the same boat - I had originally booked SYD-SING with BA (via Qantas Classic Rewards) in J - there are still a few seats available which looks to be the best (only) option. Was lucky enough that a manual request seats on QF81 came through so was successful as a Platinum member.

    Classic Reward Seats - a thing of the past?

    Curious how you run this report / see this availability? Is it through EF? Thanks

    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic Reward seats?

    Just had success getting 2 x J seats SYD-SIN on QF81 in October - first time requesting release and was surprised to get it (EF was showing I9). Lady from Cape Town centre was very helpful!

    Most cost effective way to get to Europe on points (3 x J tickets) in 6M

    Thanks for the responses - and appreciate the various 'ways in' - is largely in planning mode as who knows where business class cash fares will be in 12-18 months time.
