I was downgraded from Platinum to Gold last year and needed 600 SC to retain it, which I have managed to do.

I know you can with a return, but don’t think you can via the web for a multi-city. It is however dangerous to do so because the fine print on a refund of the points of you have to cancel is nasty - don’t recall what the catch is, but make sure to read the fine print very carefully

What is a "level 2 QBR entity"?

Another question if I may Was playing around with the online tool and was trying to fly Singapore to Doha on Qatar. For this test, on 13th July Expert Flyer shows 3 Qatar Airways flights on that day QR945 has D4, QR942 has D9, QR947 has D5 But the online tool shows no availability on Qatar...

Splendid news. Now just to find someone who can do it. Clearly the agent I have been talking to is not the right one for the job. From the recent comments in this thread I presume that - when I have an actual booking to make rather than just playing around - folks here will be able to help me...

Thanks The agent did indicate they had run QANTAS Fares specifically to ask (today) and that the below was their response "It isn’t written specifically in the rules, but the fare would need to be raised to the Australian fare level, if the fare from Tokyo is undercutting the fare from...

I just had a conversation with work's travel agent about DONE4 ticketing in Oz. I has asked about starting in Japan and they contacted QANTAS to ask about it, and am telling me QANTAS is telling them that if you issue the ticket in Oz, then it will use the Oz price. "I have spoken with Qantas...

When I went over 34,000 miles it said I was no longer eligible for Global Explorer, but was eligible for Oneworld Explorer. But then refused to price it because over 34,000 miles

AFAIK It is still status, then within a given status, order of application.

On expert flyer, look at seats available in business fare buckets rather than the seat map. That is buckets J, C, D & I On the flights below there are at least 9 seats in the cheapest business bucket (I) for QF59 so I would be pretty confident of an upgrade, where as on QF25 there are just 6...

Well here is something interesting. When I tried out the online booking tool for a RTW - it said the flight was over the limit of 34,000 miles for a bus / first flight, even though I was booking a DONE4. As far as I can tell there is no such limit on a Oneworld Explorer. So is this just...

Seems like Julie may not understand what a "tax invoice" actually is in an Australian context.

The point of status credits is to encourage people to fly - esp with QANTAS or on QANTAS code shares. While that remains the point, how would it make sense for QANTAS to sell them ? (Other than in limited circumstances such as topping up if you are just about to miss). QANTAS also needs to...

Generally speaking, if the flight is during the day then I am happy to fly economy, even long distance. So SYD->BKK, SYD-HND, HND->SYD no problem in economy. But overnight I would like a lay down bed. I won't pay for one, but will do a lot of research and fitting around either the find a...

That is right If you are signed in, and can see it, you can book it

Pop on and have a look as far out as you can see right now. I am showing quite good availability in May

If you can see the classic rewards ticket available in the flight, you can book it. They will only show you reward tickets you can book, use the multi-city booking took and say you are flexible with dates to be shown what classic rewards are available for a whole month.

Overnight in J absolutely The diff between PE and economy is trivial on domestic American - esp if you have status and can pick a nice seat on the us legs anyway

No, have not ticketed it. Not sure I want to do that much flying. As to Asia, see 4(e)2 on page 3 and 4(b) on page 2. 4(e)2 allows you to leave Asia twice and arrive in it twice, but [4(b)] requires you go TC1>2>3 (or visa versa) so in practice this means you must one of those...
