Does anyone know if the service applies when flying J/F on an award redemption flight using QFF points? I can't find any reference to it on the Qantas website.
Also what about a QF flight booked using AA points?
Cheers
Media Release - Qantas announces new chauffeur service
Travellers connecting via a domestic flight from Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra, Hobart, Perth, Sydney or Melbourne to an eligible Qantas international flight will have access to Chauffeur Drive. The offer also extends to Qantas customers travelling from Auckland, Christchurch and Wellington to Australia to connect to an eligible Qantas international flight.
Does anyone have any idea if the "connecting flight" needs to be on the same booking? I have a J booking SYD-LHR on QF1 in June, with ADL-SYD connecting flight as a separate booking. Chances of getting the limo in ADL?
And as a addendum to that question, does the connecting ( separately booked) domestic flight need to be in J ? I am flying BNE -SYD in Y then connecting that day with QF1 in F .
Hi GPH, I'm guessing that no one knows the answer to these questions yet, so please let us know if you find out before I do and I shall do likewise. Unless Red Roo or someone in the know can help..?

Nice to know. Just need to know if I am. Close enough to airport for collection
Although not a guarantee of what Qantas will do, seeing as it came about from the Emirates tie up you could get a rough idea by seeing the conditions of the service on the Emirates website. I didn't pay attention to other states but know that for Adelaide you must be within 40km of the airport from memory.
I'll stop over for two nights in the Emirates in the second week of April- EK offers the service to anywhere in the UAE, anyone has any idea if QF will simply "mirror" that? I'd like to stay in Abu Dhabi and don't want to wait till the 18th for booking the hotel so just wondering if I should budget for a rather costly cab ride or whether QF will cover that. It's about a 90 mins drive from memory...Although not a guarantee of what Qantas will do, seeing as it came about from the Emirates tie up you could get a rough idea by seeing the conditions of the service on the Emirates website.

Well I think I have found the answer to my (and GPH's) question, and unfortunately it isn't the one we are looking for.
From the Qantas Chauffer Drive Ts and Cs:
5. Chauffeur Drive is also available in Adelaide, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Hobart, Perth, Auckland, Christchurch and Wellington to passengers travelling on Qantas operated flights that connect to or from an eligible Qantas international flight above (and travelling in First or Business on the eligible international flight). Customers do not need to be travelling in Business on the domestic or trans-Tasman flight. The Domestic or trans-Tasman flight must be in the same booking as the eligible international flight.
Pity about that.
I have it sorted now.
Our separately booked flights have been changed to a linked booking with new booking codes, this linking of the same day travel to a qualifying flight means that the chauffeur drive from my home to BNE ( and the return leg) is now on.

Has anyone with flights to the US after July been able to book these yet? I don't want to keep logging in if it won't be available for a while.
