    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    Just had a look using multi-city tool and a couple of intermediate cities and found this - assume you were after one seat only. Requires 10 hours in Delhi but it's an option.

    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    This might be my only hope - how would this work? Do they pretend to be me? Wouldn't the number of ID questions agents ask these days - which is getting a bit excessive - torpedo this?

    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    I think it might be worse than that - wouldn’t the remaining itinerary be cancelled due to no- show?

    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    Have to agree - although as mentioned I did once get an Fiji agent who knew what they were doing, understood the ticketing issue and contacted Ticketing whilst I was on hold and had it done within about 20 minutes. Was yours an initial ticketing or reticketing? Were you on the call while it...

    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    Been trying for several days to move a single flight in our OWA itinerary one hour later to meet Minimum Connection TIme requirements (don't know how it was accepted to start with) and the agents (Fiji) are telling me it they're getting an error and it can't be done. The error is apparently...

    Transit time in Madrid - RJ to IB

    What time would you suggest I call to increase the (slim) chance of getting a Hobart agent? (Never thought I'd miss the days when calling Qantas involved hours on hold - but got you through to a half competent agent)

    Transit time in Madrid - RJ to IB

    Decided to bite the bullet today and rang Qantas to get the MAD-BCN flight moved to the very next flight - 1 hour later. Asked if the agent could contact ticketing dept whilst on the call but they declined stating that ticketing dept would't entertain such a request unless travel was imminent...

    How risky is it to book an award flight on CI with QF points?

    Agree with previous comments. If, as you say, there is plenty of availability then the risks are low. The issues others have posted about regarding reticketing disasters are related to flights for which little or no award seats are available so a lost booking for a single sector can mean an...

    Transit time in Orlando - AA dom to AA dom

    Route is Miami to Chicago (couldn’t get a direct flight) so should be plenty of later flights And no specific need to be there by a certain time- will be there for 5 days.

    Transit time in Orlando - AA dom to AA dom

    As part of our OWA next year we have a 54 minute connection time in Orlando between incoming and outgoing AA domestic flights (same booking). Interested to hear the forum's advice on the adequacy of this connection time. As far as I can determine both flights operate in/out of the same...

    Transit time in Madrid - RJ to IB

    Didn’t know that - changes the equation a bit. Looks like I’ll be changing to a later flight when the next schedule change inevitably happens.

    Transit time in Madrid - RJ to IB

    That’s my quandary - get it fixed at potentially great cost (not monetary) or take the chance of having to fly later possibly in Y. Unless I have no choice - because of schedule changes requiring reticketing - I’ll go for the second option. Curious why there was no issue booking it in the...

    Transit time in Madrid - RJ to IB

    Flight is from AMM. Been ticketed for months - apparently without issue. I've already had 2 flight changes requiring reticketing so if (when) the next one happens I'll look at a later flight as well. If not, then I'll just see what transpires. I assume if we're reaccommodated into Y, the J...

    Transit time in Madrid - RJ to IB

    As part of our OWA next year we have a 55 minute connection time in Madrid between an incoming RJ flight and an IB connection to Barcelona. IB have a flight an hour later that is showing J reward availability but I'm very reluctant to risk possibly losing other flights in our itinerary through...

    QF Classic Award - Partner Changes

    Certainly in my experience your assumption regarding losing a booked flight due to slow Qantas reticketing is correct. I suggest you call ASAP and explain your concern - even say it's happened to you before - and see how much help you get. Call in business hours so the ticketing department is...

    Cancelled Again!

    Don't they do it regardless? In my experience every time I've enquired - at the airport - if there's space, check-in/service desk staff have been happy to do it. And with no connecting flight to catch Even remember checking in to a JQ flight via a kiosk and being offered the option to jump on an...

    Checked baggage through on separate bookings

    I have the opposite situation. Flying MEL-DOH-AMM-MAD-BCN as part of a OWA with an 18 hour overnight layover in Amman for which we are likely to need our bags - other layovers are only a few hours. What determines how far our luggage is checked through to - is there a standard rule? Is there a...
