Possible to go very cheap to earn 105 SC's?

[coles525]

I expire at the end of December, which I have activated the double SC offer. Currently waiting for the 10 SC between Syd--Melb, which will leave me a balance of 105 SC required.

Would there be any dirt cheap (less then $350 return) flights that could get me over the line?

Even if it's general economy for that price or less for the entire trip(s)......

Ive been looking at the date(s) of weekend starting Fri Dec 7th.


I'm trying the qantas website, but seems not much luck....

I am not aware of any options locally that would be that cheap, and of course its coming to end of year when flights get busy so availability is hard.

Do you have any FF points to choose an Any Seat Award? A straight up JASA between any capital city and PER would suffice.

Get to CBR and do the CBR HBA JASA thingo is an option if you have points to burn?

You could do mel cbr in j, CBr to Sydney in y Sydney to CBr in j and CBr to mel in j using asa. That would give you 130 status credits and cost 60,000 points and $320. On the weekend you seem to need to overnight in Sydney to make it work on 8th and 9th. If you went on the 10th you could do it all in 1 day. . There are probably other options to play around with. Not sure if I might be seeing extra flights because I am WP?

Overkill if you just need 105 and have double SCs, but for reference I note that on December 9 I can see MEL-SYD-ASP (JASA) ASP-ADL-MEL (YASA) for 33,000 points + $392, 120+50 SCs
