Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

[chiken_nugets]

Today I received a callback advising that after an internal review my proposed routing met the OW rules and an ITS ticket has been raised to rectify the problem. The AU-NZ flight would be a positioning and not part of the OW rules.

Did this ever get resolved @Matt_01 ?

I am getting an error when starting my itinerary from New Zealand.

I've booked and paid ….

When you get a bank error in your favour it is seldom a good idea to ask questions about it in a public forum.

Are folks still getting the 3006 error whenever a Jetstar flight is in the result for a multi-stop search? I have tried in vain with QF to have it fixed.

Hi all. I've been collecting points for a while and I'm now finally ready to book my first OW Classic Flight Reward.

I've seen the suggested 'hack' on the PointHacks website suggesting to start the trip overseas (book a cash fare to starting destination e.g. Asia) in order to get a second trip out of it within a year. Has anyone done this and would you recommend it? Not sure if I want to sit the repositioning leg to Asia in economy but I'm well under the 35K miles based on rough plan so would like to maximise it somehow.

I'm bronze and read that we can book reward flights up to 297 days in advance but I can view/book flights on Qantas site until Nov 2025 - is it just special/popular routes that are restricted to 297 days?
