QF early-2017 award availability - restricted to elite status holders?

[TahoeSkier]

U = auto lounge access in J lounge which unfortunately at LAX even with renos gets very busy.
As soon as you get into lounge suggest booking a shower spot

Good tip cheers.

We accessed the LAX lounge last year, on Oscars night actually - was fairly busy but still plenty of room. I imagine it can get quite manic...

Also white table cloth, proper cutlery and plates.

Can one access this lounge while waiting for QF94? Cool...two lounges to sample.

Yes there is an airside (after security) walkway between TBIT and T4

However the T4 AC is nothing to write home about.

Showers are far better at T4 ...

Yes, this is what a Qantas employee suggested. More seats available for higher status members.

I can see 2 J seats on QF93 on the 8th March 2017 as a NB.

Hi all - great thread! I was about to start a new one and chanced across this in a search and have just read the 26 pages...

I need some help from someone with Bronze membership level I am currently Silver but about to drop back to Bronze (in a week). I have one flight left to book as part of my OW Award flight and am nervous that I am not going to have visibility of the flights I want to book in two weeks time with Bronze status.

What I am after, can someone with Bronze status search for JFK-LAX in August 2017 for F seats. I see a lot of availability as Silver. I am actually after a flight around 19th of September.

AA Domestic F is not too flash, except for these particular flights (A321T) so I really want to snare the last piece in the puzzle!

Thanks in advance.

Lots of F availability in August looking at my partner's bronze account, but nothing for September.

I wouldn't have thought your QF status would affect your access to AA reward seats

Hi ozmatt,

Just ran a comparison between (partner's) NB and my SG - can't see any difference (though previously I've seen lots of variation). As Doctore1003 says: quite a bit of F in August but nothing (currently) beyond Sep 3 - and only limited Y (4, 6, 7, 11, 16,17,18).

Regards,

BD

Might be running into holiday problems.Unis have a spring break with weeks starting late August for some then every week through September.
School holidays only start 15/9 sept so shouldn't be a problem out of LAX.

Good points! I might have to book the business fare I can see now and drop another 3500 points if I see a F open up.
