Maybe I'll give up the QFF points game altogether

QFF points appear to be great value when used on partner airlines intra-Asia.

Other than that I tend to agree they are not worth very much.

Thanks for that tip. QF is not my preferred FF program by any means but with some of the great CC signon offers recently have found it hard not to take the points (I've got 162K last year, only 6K from flying, and my wife 120K). Using however is harder, so have been looking hard for the value options!!

I recently toasted 152,000 + SGD$260.40 for SIN-HKG-SIN CX J x 2

The nominal value of flights is still better per point than gift cards.

yeah still better than gift cards

SYD-HKG-SYD
fare $858
classic award 60,000+$377(5,200/15,100*$100=$34)
=0.75c

Woolworths $100
15,100
=0.66c

J and F awards are great value numerically but a struggle to book online even for QFF Platinum
need to call premium desk
