Hi do you mean 7/14 days or weeks prior to a scheduled flight ?

Hi at the moment bookings for Cathay flights stop at 31 March 2025. Does anyone know when April 1 2025 onwards loads onto the system ?

Thanks for asking. The family and I have 2.5 weeks to spread between the focus of Stockholm, Latvia and Estonia for next year's Melbourne winter school holidays. Will be flying in and out of Helsinki . Gonna sit down and plan an itinerary and yes if we can factor in one of two nights in...

So after calling Qantas the answer to my post is: * yes reward seats are available on the route, 10,000 points plus A$53.90 taxes * 35 min flight with Finnair (operated by Nordic Regional ) * by comparison the cash fare is 108 Euro with checked bag

What I love about this forum is little tips like this from fellow learned travellers ! I am weighing up flight vs ferry in the first instance and would never have factored in a Scandinavian buffet breakfast while watching the waves role by vs airline food (if any on this short leg ) ! Bring on...

My family and I really enjoy ferries and know of the ferry but I am weighing up whether to spend a night or two in Helsinki then take the ferry or fly straight to Tallinn given I will already be at Helsinki airport. The focus of this trip is Estonia and Latvia not Finland.

Does anyone know if reward seats are available from Helsinki to Tallinn via the Qantas call centre ? Tallinn is not listed as a destination via on line booking despite Finnair flying there.

Thanks for the feedback to my original post commencing this thread. Yes the conclusion seems to be that the only way to mix a classic plus reward with other normal reward or cash fares is via a simple return route such as A to B and return. The inability to include in a multi city booking...

Hi all. Unless I am missing something, I am unable to combine a classic reward with a classic plus reward as a multi city booking. In fact, classic reward plus seats do not appear at all in a multi city search despite showing in a point-to-point search. So how would I be able to make one...

Hi JennyMG, it is too early to find reward seats "from France or thereabouts to home next May/June 2025" as it is too far in advance and not yet on the booking calendar. In relation to " from Syd to Italy or thereabouts next April/May 2025 " only early April departures are on the system and that...

If you have one PNR and request an upgrade the request applies to all passengers in the booking. You can however split a booking ( can be done on-line ) and request separate upgrades that way. If you split a booking you may however wish to link the passengers as travelling together ( call centre...

All good in the end. It took a few phones calls I but manged to change both bookings to the same earlier flight via Brisbane as opposed to the last flight of the night. As expected I had to call both Qantas and Amex Travel to make the change.

My original post said they were teenagers without specifying age. They are 15 and 16. Once again thanks for the feedback all !

Thanks everyone ! I am going to sound Qantas and Amex out but I am also tempted to leave it as AustralianPoochie suggested. Yes the boys are capable of being split from mum and dad to fly together themselves but if I attempt a change and we end up on different flights then we have to wait for...

wine......3 days max for the points

My family of 4 are travelling together Mackay to Melbourne via Brisbane. Mum and dad (me) have a reward seat booking made with QF while my two teenage boys have a separate ticket paid fare booked through Amex Travel. Soon after making both bookings, I called Qanats to link the bookings. I have...

there are 3 economy class reward seats on 21 September from Melbourne to Tokyo via Hong Kong. Given this is a bit late for a popular destination during school holidays it is unlikely to get much better than this. I haven't searched for return flights though.

such a learned community this forum !

so is this how it works: if I intend to purchase a revenue fair, do I first purchase the gift voucher for the value of the fare ( or greater ) and then pay with the voucher to avoid card fee ? Can I pay reward seat taxes that way as well ?

what is a GV please ?
