re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread
edited: oh, i have 279000 qantas ff points at the moment
I was referred here by mooing chicken (thank you!) in my 1st ever post in "Questions" re trying to get to Toronto and home to coordinate with others.
Can anyone please tell me if I could do the following with the 140,000 or whether it's better value to do some kind of points _ pay deal (forward journey not negotiable but everything else is):
Saturday 8 August, perth to toronto with 3 hour stopover in hong kong cathay pacific , economy class. My daughter will be a paid flight. Could I start an around the world with this, then......
Sunday 24th I will be staying about 20 kilometres from Niagra Falls and I'd like to take my daughter to one destination if I could possibly afford it on the way home to Perth.
So could an around the world get me to the nearest Disneyland for a week, then home to Perth?
Or, to New York (although I don't think I can afford accommodation in either of these) then home to Perth?
Or somewhere else you could suggest that would fit the around the world criteria?
So, she will start her around the world from the first flight on 24th August and I would be continuing mine.
Or would we be best to do a tour of Niagra and then back to Toronto for a couple of days then home using a return flight for her and return awards flight for me.
Hope that makes sense.
So many helpful people on this site.
Cheers.
