Hello folks. I'm eyeing a week in Dallas, ideally in October. Have heaps of QF miles & WP. Would favour QF7/8 J or F, could buy Y for cash if points upgrade realistically achievable. Maybe even look at one of those RTW jaunts, but I'd be hoping for some good connections. While I'm happy to pay...

Sorry for the big write up but I’m very frustrated and would very much appreciate some help: I’ve spent the past few weekends putting together a RTW itinerary from my honeymoon, which we’ve been credit card churning for, for the past few years. I booked the first half 2 weeks ago and have spent...

I am writing to you from YZF in northern Canada. My family of four is embarking on a 6 month round the world trip from approximately April 1 to September 30, 2020. I realize that the current RTW sale for Finnair is ending today and is not for my intended time period. I notice that they have...

After reading this post, I've done some research and found that the Virgin Australia/Virgin Atlantic round-the-world sale seems to be back from $1,414 in economy, including taxes. This is departing from Sydney or Melbourne - there is a small surcharge if leaving from other Australian cities...

In 2014 I booked a seven month RTW trip using Qantas FF points and oneworld alliance airlines. It was relatively straightforward to look up flights with eligible seats with the tools provided. I'm about to do this. again but find when I click on classic rewards flights only I get taken to a one...

Not fussed if we travel east or west however west is looking like a better option. After stumbling across this thread what do you look forward to more the flight...

It was many years in the making. I read and researched and read some more and weighed up options. In the end I decided *A would be the best suited based on future travel plans and what airlines flew where. We signed up with KrisFlyer in particular as they had announced they would fly from...

Hi. I'm doing a Discount Biz RTW with Swiss/Lufthansa and all sectors are fine except travelling HNL-SYD on QF. There is currently only one seat available, and we need 2. They won't let us take the one seat and the other person fly economy for that sector (still paying full biz RTW fare), so...
