Oman Air, while a QF partner, is not a OW airline. Due to join OW 30 June 2025. So will not be able to have Oman Air, in a QF Oneworld Classic Flight Reward, itinerary until then. Doubt QF would book Oman Air now, based on what should/may happen in ~3months time.I’ve done a few Oneworld Classic Flight Reward trips in the past but never with a break in between so seeking feedback from members.
Looking at an extended trip in 2026, with 4 weeks in Egypt/UK/Ireland Apri, back to BNE for a few months, then 4 weeks in USA in October.
I’m doing dummy bookings to see availability of 2 x Business (U) and what alternatives there are..
All depends on availability of course, but I’m currently WP and will make P1 (and LTG) in mid-August this year, so I have a slightly better chance of getting what we need. It will be complicated by the increase in required points after August this year but I have enough to cover the extra if required.
First step is a positioning BNE/CGK then commence the reward booking from there:
CGK/OOMS/CAI - STOP 1 (Oman Air)
CAI/LHR - STOP 2 (BA)
LHR/SIN/BNE- STOP 3 (QF)
BNE/ORD - STOP 4 (QF/AA)
ORD/JFK - STOP 5 (AA)
JFK/ BNE) – END -(AA or QF)
