    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    Hi, is it only when using the Qantas website that QR award flights are restricted to 30 days prior? If I find a QR award flight on another site can I ring QFF and get them to book it?

    WARNING : Cancellation of one leg of a status booking, error with Qantas system

    It doesn't seem possible to cancel on-line just one leg of a return booking made with reward points. It seems from this thread that it can be done by calling the service center, but will they charge the service fee of 4,500 points?

    China Airlines using married segments on TPE to AKL

    Not my date, thanks, I'm in June. Thanks for the tip re stopover, that allows me to at least enter TPE to start the flight. Unfortunately, there now doesn't seem to be any availability TPE-MEL on the relevant dates.

    China Airlines using married segments on TPE to AKL

    Can I ask if you booked this with QF points? I am having a similar issue with returning from Rome to Mel. I can book QF award flight FCO to HKG (via TPE) and can then book HKG to MEL (again via (TPE). Alternatively, I can book FCO to TPE but I can't book TPE to MEL. The QF site Multi-city...

    BA club suites for SYD

    Thanks. I played around with bookings on the BA site and it looks like they are swapping from 787 to 777 for this flight in April 24. I would hope that they would only use CS fitted 777 on such a long route. The other daily flight on the route uses the A350, which has the CS.

    BA club suites for SYD

    Does anyone know if BA27 LHR to HKG will likely have the new CS in June 24? I am looking to book via QFF award, and the QF site shows it will be a 777-200/300.

    Qantas website not working to find points flights

    Thanks, this is actually a great way of finding award flights. I managed to get MEL-HKG and then HKG-TPE-AMS in Business. I could not find anything trying to go MEL-AMS (or anywhere else in EUR), but it's there if you look for individual legs. Flights on different tickets, so will need to...

    Qantas website not working to find points flights

    I just realised I missed an important "no" in my original post, which I have now edited. But you seem to have understood what I meant. Sorry, but how does the multi-city option help? I'm only looking to book one-way currently, as I want to spend 4-5 weeks there and the return flights wouldn't...

    Qantas website not working to find points flights

    I'm finding the "Where could I go" function particularly unhelpful. I'm trying to book Classic Award Business class flights to Europe next May, one way and flexible with dates. Multiple options show up, but as soon as I click "book this flight" it says there are no such flights available...

    Qantas apologises to frequent flyers with status extensions, lounge passes, points & more reward seats

    Thanks for explaining, but doesn't make me happy. Is it likely there will be further award seats made available prior to my planned trip May 23? If not, I'll just bit the bullet and book a paid fare while still reasonably priced.

    Qantas apologises to frequent flyers with status extensions, lounge passes, points & more reward seats

    I would be really interested to understand what they mean by "more FF seats". I'm searching and there is not a single business class award seat to Europe between now and June 23. Does anyone know if they will be issuing more award seats anytime? I'm wanting to travel in May next year and...

    Is it even possible to get classic awards in business internationally anymore?

    How do you research releases of award flights? Knowing that would be very useful, I'm trying to get business award flights to Europe next April/May/June.

    Qantas apologises to frequent flyers with status extensions, lounge passes, points & more reward seats

    Well I still can't find any Business Class award flights to Europe in April or May 23.

    Lounge Access Help Desk

    Hi, I'm WP and flying out of Melbourne tomorrow on QF8409 (EK409) departing at 5am . I believe the FLounge doesn't open till 5am, and QF Bus Lounge till 3.45am. I can't find what time the EK Lounge opens, does anyone know? Also any comparison between the EK and QF bus lounges? I've not...

    Help me with my dilemma! To upgrade or not.

    Depends on how many points you have in your account, and whether you may have a better use for them at a later time (such as upgrading Y - J). As you are asking the question, I would assume you do not have virtually unlimited points through business cc spend, so points are important to you. Day...

    Where to buy a watch?

    Thanks all. Sorry, I should have mentioned I am looking for a Swiss watch, which is why I thought Zurich might be the best place. I will look at the prices DF in HKG on the way over, and then compare prices in Zurich while there. No real surpirse, it seems most places are cheaper than Australia...

    Where to buy a watch?

    I'm in need of advice and am sure someone here will have the knowledge I seek. I'm in the market for a new watch (reasonable, but not too expensive), and I want to know where is the best place to buy one. I'm off to Zurich next month, via HKG. So the options available are to buy: 1. Duty Free in...

    MEL-FRA in J, QF vs SQ/LH, which to choose?

    Thanks. Yes, MEL-LHR on QF A380 would be my preference, but I don't deal with the TA, just get offerred the choices they suggest (not sure how/why they come up with them, but its a global arrangement with the TA, so not much I can do about it). Don't like the sound of the LH beds much, but...
