QR sale from CMB

[wandering_fred]

Sale theoretically ends 05 Sep 2016 but you can fly well into 2017.

I priced a round trip CMB-DOH-BOS in business (May 17) for less than US$1200 on the QR website. My TA in CMB confirmed prices and availability.

My question: Is it cheap enough to forgo the DONE4 alternative exCAI? Yes prices are good on CMB-DOH-CAI as well...

(If you can make up your mind) Happy wandering

I would much rather visit CMB than CAI from a security perspective too

Prices for 5+ CMB to BOS on the A350 are A$1200 each. Insane fares.

 

[wandering_fred]

I should have said my fare quote was for business class CMB<<>>BOS @US$1200

Happy wandering

I've noticed that many of the business class fares in this sale are not as good as in the previous one, particularly for people travelling alone. As I have no plans to visit BOS again, I'll give this sale a miss.

insane prices... thing is most are booked into R class which doesn't earn any SC / BA Tier Points AFAIK

R-class does earn SC/TP

Yep return fare CMB-BOS gets 600 TP's on BA (making life time OWE worth $70K USD :shock and 480 SC's on QF.

I stand corrected! Wow!

Qatar airlines are offering quadruple miles for today only, and a 10% discount for using QATAR2022 promotion code.
So I booked a return ticket CMB-BOS in business class for ~ $1500 for October to see the fall foliage.
It will cost me about an additional $750 to get to Colombo and back.
This yields about 87,000 Qatar FF points, almost enough for a one-way BUSINESS CLASS redemption from Sydney to PARIS!! LOL!!!!

Perhaps God ultimately punishes you for manipulating the system.

 

[oh_lol]

Noooo! I'm going to the Boston Marathon and wished I had seen this sale!

Recently I discovered CAI-xDOH-DMM F for $560 on QR. Gets 180 SC
