Which dates? All I see is CX flights out of Australia. Surprised Qantas has released classic awards to partners — usually the batch releases are for Qantas members only.I saw QF11/12 and AA LAX/LHR legs. I'd probably take that combo if I had a need to be in the UK then. Which I don't.
Giving you a nice reminder of how bad the new system is. Don't worry, those comparisons will all disappear once the classic awards evaporate and are never seen again.
In what mindset would you have any thoughts that CR+ is 'good'?So this is not a good addition in any way at all?

Oh I thought you were talking about Qantas classic awards being available on AA.com, which would have been highly unusual (for a batch release).all this for 578,400 points and $2,128.04 cash.
You can put your CR+ right where the Irish sun don't shine

It definitely is, but with more flights seemingly thrown in.Quite ridiculous, is this not basically just the "anytime points" prices rebranded?
One has to wonder how many people can regularly generate the number of points needed to redeem Classic+ seats on long-haul premium cabins, especially for more than 1 person, at a cost of less than 1.5c/pt.But 1.5c is generally more than your cost.
I'd argue the opposite. The real point hackers earning millions are churning like mad and doing sign up bonuses everywhere. those should be well below 1c per point cost.One has to wonder how many people can regularly generate the number of points needed to redeem Classic+ seats on long-haul premium cabins, especially for more than 1 person, at a cost of less than 1.5c/pt.
Even a lot of points whales will be spending ~1-1.5c/pt to acquire their millions of points through surcharges/fees/etc. They were relying on redemption values of 3+c/pt to make it worthwhile.

I imagine that QF have a very cleat picture of how many people can regularly generate the number of points needed to redeem Classic+ seats.One has to wonder how many people can regularly generate the number of points needed to redeem Classic+ seats on long-haul premium cabins, especially for more than 1 person, at a cost of less than 1.5c/pt.
