Sad news - I was hoping the cheap EY J redemptions on ICN-PRG would return.
Actually not OK thenOK then...
Struggling to use your Frequent Flyer Points?
Frequent Flyer Concierge takes the hard work out of finding award availability and redeeming your frequent flyer or credit card points for flights.
Using their expert knowledge and specialised tools, the Frequent Flyer Concierge team at Frequent Flyer Concierge will help you book a great trip that maximises the value for your points.
So another data point re my CI J booking on QFF points that I made back in June (for two on MEL-TPE! Thank god I did it early):Ok, so answering my own earlier question about managing bookings... because I made a booking an hour ago!
And it really is the case that CI availability is very thin compared to last year and the years since CI became available via QF. I was booking six months out, which while rarely rich with options has usually had a few J seats per week. This time all I could find was PY.
- As reported by @jsoprano in July, you can now do successful seat selection during booking with QF.
- You can manage your booking on the QF site and make seat changes and add special meals
- You cannot access your booking via the CI website (as has been the case for a few years)
- You can access the booking via the CI app as long as you can divine what it thinks your first name is (often firstnamemiddlename, no space), however, you can't make any changes
- You can still make modifications on the soon-to-vanish Czech Airlines site (but right now it seems to be geoblocking some Australian or non-European IP addresses).
Did the seat selection save successfully?Now, I tried QF homepage MMB again just to make sure and ... lo and behold, I can pull up the seat map and select different seats! That definitely wasn't possible a few weeks ago.
Yes, when I tried it recently.Did the seat selection save successfully?
Wanting a J reward BNE-TPE-LHR in October 2025 after the 20th. When should I start searching for availabllity?
Also when I run dummy searches on QF Multi-City tool for flexible dates in August-September 2025 there is plenty of J availibility for BNE-TPE but only Y for TPE-LHR even on the dates showing J in the calendar view. Is this normal for CI or is it just another QF web site issue?
