Try rj.com, has worked for me for all OW airlines on my OWA (although QR and JL lock down some seats - if it says restricted don't try to select that one).is there a trick to selecting AA seats or will i have to play seat roulette at the airport?

Put your QF PNR into checkymytrip app and should then get the AA ref, and select seats on AA with thatYeah i had a flight change and actually received an updated eticket too
I have been able to select seats of all of my legs except those operated by AA (JFK-ORD and ORD-DFW). Seems the QF booking reference doesnt work on AA site like it does with BA - is there a trick to selecting AA seats or will i have to play seat roulette at the airport?
Your QF status shouldn't be relevantAs an aside, as a bronze, rj doesn't work for me.
Thanks. Maybe I'll call qf. I don't have EF anymore so can't see a current seat map. Perhaps the seats are booked already. ThanksYour QF status shouldn't be relevant
UPDATE: After three operators, several drop outs and many hours I finally got my chosen alternative with call centre last night confirmed and paid for. But refused to ticket.I've been trying to book this OWA since 2018 - so I've got a very detailed spreadsheet with all of my previous routes, changes, planning and two alternative routes already here in front of me ready to go.
I always go in prepared because each experience with the call centres I've had during these years has been the same (traumatic). But I also agree with what was said earlier re hearing what the operator has to say before proposing my idea.
If only you had Check My Trip you could have verified the new itinerary before the end of the call.UPDATE: After three operators, several drop outs and many hours I finally got my chosen alternative with call centre last night confirmed and paid for. But refused to ticket.
After waiting overnight I decided to start calling again to push the ticket in fear that some QR flights would disappear if not confirmed.
When I received my eticket at lunch (after another three calls beginning at 6am) I see that the lady who made the changes last night, and VERBALLY CONFIRMED every single flight with me before proceeding, has simply deleted one of my key connecting flights in error, stranding me in KUL.
I've already had one attempt (and 3.5hrs) trying to get it fixed with them today, ultimately being hung up on again with no resolution. There's 100% no other availability now, and no similar re-routing options as she deleted my flight less than a month out. On hold again currently.
Am at my wits end...
I verbally confirmed every flight, number, carrier and time with the CSR on the phone before confirming and paying fees.If only you had Check My Trip you could have verified the new itinerary before the end of the call.
Your experience suggests otherwise, though.I don't know anything about the Check My Trip system, host or how quickly it actually updates data from Amadeus. But it seems a bit haphazard to use it as a primary source of truth over Qantas directly?
That is weird, don't think status should effect it.As an aside, as a bronze, rj doesn't work for me.

Someone mentioned ordering an e-ticket receipt through the Finnair Manage Booking page. This does have a breakdown of sorts for taxes in the email that arrives.Anyone know how to work out how to track what and why QF are charging in fees and taxes after the fact?
Just got another charge from them and not sure why.
I'll give that a try though I've been paying for 3 different tickets so may not help.Someone mentioned ordering an e-ticket receipt through the Finnair Manage Booking page. This does have a breakdown of sorts for taxes in the email that arrives.
If you have 17 sectors now then some of them are bound to be short. Perhaps some don’t even have proper J (e.g. European flights). Could you drop one and do it as a cheap cash flight at your own expense instead of blowing a stack of points on an Australian domestic flight?With the rerouting of PER-LHR to DRW-LHR, Qantas put me on DRW-PER to connect, adding a sector to my J oneworld award. At the time of speaking with Qantas to confirm that change, I changed my routing slightly. With the addition of DRW-PER, I now have 17 sectors - one too many. Qantas's solution has been to put the final MEL-PER on a separate ticket at my own expense (i.e. 41.5K). So far I'm not having much luck convincing QF to compromise on that.
Read post 10,880I have a OWA trip for later this year in Business using Japan Airlines and Iberia.
I have reserved seats on Japan but don’t seem to be able to reserve seats on Iberia. Any hints?
I have the IB booking reference but I can’t see where on the IB site I can reserve seatsRead post 10,880
