I have $500 Q gift voucher and wife has one, about to book fare SYD/HKG/SYD, can I make the one booking for both? or do I have to make to separate bookings to use them?.

If you choose to redeem the voucher online (if it can): No.
If redeemed via Reservations, I wouldn't see why not.

No & Yes.

It's in the T&C's of the voucher purchase.

In more technical detail, these 'vouchers' have an Amadeus PNR indicated by the voucher reference.

PNR's for multiple PAX can be split into two or more different PNR's.

However, PNR's for several PAX cannot be combined into one.

Serfty, I guess its best to just call Qantas to redeem each one?.

You'll have to redeem each one separately anyway, so I'm not sure it will be easier to do over the phone versus via the website. Unless they can provide better flight availability on the phone.

The only thing that can be done with separate bookings is to have them cross linked or "TCP'd".

If you call Qantas to book with them you will be stung the Telephone booking fee!

You can use these on-line to make your vookings, then one each is booked, call Qantas reservations and have them TCP's. This will avoid the fees.

Thanks for the advise.

Does the 10 points per $1 on Qantas Gift Vouchers kick in once they are used with a flight booking?.

and
does this mean if calling up to use one there is no booking fee or is it just on voucher part?.

"Another bonus is that gift voucher booking redemptions are immune from credit card booking fees, saving $7 or so in a usual booking".

...

No, they should be credited in the next few weeks.

Only saves on the CC fees which are $7.70 domestic/TT and $30 international.

The Telephone booking fee still applies if not done online and is currently $35 for domestic and $60 for international.
