I was just wondering if it was possible to fly on CX from sydney to HK using Qantas classic rewards, since it says 'Qantas and partner classic awards'.
The Frequent Flyer Concierge team takes the hard work out of finding reward seat availability. Using their expert knowledge and specialised tools, they'll help you book a great trip that maximises the value for your points.
Note that awards on CX are "Partner Awards" and are charged at a higher rate than "Qantas" awards.
e.g. one 1 (0-600 miles) is 10K rather than 8K.
I was doing a search this morning for MEL-LAX and was offered via HKG on CX. :shock: (48K points on QF direct or 75K via HKG, CX Business was available as well for 139K)
One more thing is that a transit from QF to CX will trigger another "trip".
