Qantas DSC October 2024 Offer - book by 31/10/24 & fly 1/11/24-19/10/25

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but I'd assume theres more of an agreement with China Air than EVA given one is a partner and one is not.

Alternatively you could look at CX and that would definitely be under OW policy?

Yeah i reckon i will book the China Air one. Last time I flew with Qantas then connecting with China Air - the Qantas staff didn't question my additional allowance, but on the way back from Taipei, I had to pay an excess fee. Luckily this time I'm flying back home with Singapore Air so will take the risk.

No Cathay option from Hong Kong to Taipei?

Transit times a little too long in HKG at 5.5hrs and arrives into Taipei past midnight.

Given how often the QF MEL-HKG flight runs 1-2 hours late I would be taking the CX flight and picking up the SC's

Is there any way to check if the DSC flag has been set?

Made some bookings tonight around 10.50pm but a bit gnarly that the e-tickets didn't come back til after 11pm (12am DST)

Got burned with DST again.

Yet another glorious week of QF DSC comes to an end! What a run it was. Although I was not able to participate in the first few days, I helped my colleagues make some good, last minute bookings that will take them across the threshold into WP area I had three colleagues on a conference call and helped them with their bookings on QF website. Kinda felt like a ticket ninja

Now, for the inevitable question - has the DSCs posted yet!?

I’d safely say that as long as the booking was created before 2359h 31Oct24, you’d be safe. Etkts might take some time to be issued. I’d also safely assume that QF IT systems are overrunning with ticket requests, searches etc. So delay is fine and kinda expected. This is my 2c
