Team up on a Companion Fare: CX HKG-Aus

Status
Not open for further replies.
bearing in mind those fares exclude taxes fees and surcharges - bringing the true fare to HKD12248 (to SYD/MEL as an example - noting also that the fares to MEL are not available on 11/12 Jan, and SYD is not available on 12 Jan - not sure about other ports for those dates). That gives an AUD price of $1725.

the CX price compares with a QF premium economy class fare including taxes of HKD13642 to MEL and HKD13449 to SYD which is available on both 11/12 Jan for both ports. equates to AUD1896 - but without the requirement for 2 pax.

(for a nice chunk of SCs and FFPs ex TPE business class works out to around AUD2700 on CX)

How are you getting QF to price sub $2k AUD? QF website isn't showing it for me, don't think ITA matrix is either.
 
QF website -> selected Hong Kong as country at top right of page-> keyed in dated and fare of ~HKD10500 returned - taxes added next page to bring it to levels stated above.

That's funny, I can only get the 13449 price on IATA Matrix but not QF - QF website is giving me 2k+.

I also need to actually end in CBR and have experimented with separate tickets and a combined booking - doesn't seem to make much difference, and can't seem to get it under 2k.
 
the qantas website won't even give the option of SELECTING premium economy on the HKG-CBR route. intersting as it will happily route MEL via SYD with an economy connection, but nothing for CBR! (will allow a pure economy or business selection)

I just discovered that the QF website will, but you have to use the multi-city tool.

Curiously Flight Centre HK is giving a better price than QF website.
