Thanks, this is a great help. I read on tripadvisor that some US travel sites are really unreliable, and these mentioned below, don't get any major complaints at all. I had seen some amazing prices on SouthWest's site, and wondered how reliable they are as an airline... Thanks again

Good stuff!..Really appreciate your help and advice! I'm off to do some bargain hunting! :)

Thanks again, yes that's the way I went looking for flights, the 2nd time around! So pardon my ignorance but are these 'Qantas and Jetstar Any Seat Awards' flights all still eligible for the same SC you'd earn while flying on a full J fare, no matter how many points or $$ you choose to use...

Hi markis10, Thanks for the quick reply with suggested route. This appears to be an excellent option, however when I try to call up the same Hobart to Canberra J fare, it's saying I need to use upwards of 100k points if I only want to pay around $50, as the one-way ticket is around the $950...

Anyone care to recommend websites they've used to book cheap and reliable air travel within the US? Are there certain web sites and companies to definitely stay clear of? Mike

Hey guys, I've never attempted a SC run in the past, but as I'm close to loosing my very first hard earned year of Gold status at the end of April, and I have some travel booked to and around the US the following month, I'm keen to this status by doing a run to gain the 120 sc I am still...

The upgrade fairies must have been looking after me as the request has been confirmed for Qf12 lax/syd. It's apparently a very full flight tonight too, so I am lucky it came through given my silver status. Looking forward to some room and quiet in premium.

Thanks for the tip on International upgrades not available 24 hours prior to departure. I've since read up on these terms and conditions on the Qantas site. I'd better get an upgrade request in quick smart as I leave in roughly 72 hours.... Just in response to the question re using points to...

Thanks for the current load info, and photo as a reminder of what the seat locations looks like. I've walked past these type of seats on a few occasions heading towards an allotted seat further back in the plane, but never considered how annoying that extra bulk sticking out would be for 14...

Thanks for the seating map. I had wondered about the flight loading, to see what my chances were for scoring an upgrade using points. My return flight needs to be flexible at this stage, so I don't know what the date will be, but thanks for offering to look at it anyway. I'll drop back here...

Thanks for the quick posts guys. Row 58 is definitely an exit row on this flight, as I went into the online seat allocation area on the Qantas site, and that confirmed it is. You're right about the crew facing these seats, as this was the case on a similar trip I did back in June, when I...

Hi everyone Love this site!. I'm a long time lurker, first time poster.... I don't travel anywhere near as frequently as some of you, but I still manage to just scrape up enough Qantas SCs each year to remain on Silver. I'm flying Melb/LA this Thursday with Qantas (QF93) on a discounted...
