Re: Need 4 DJ sectors and 130 SCs by Sept 1
Just wondering if anyone has any bright ideas for coming up with 150sc by 1 October, flying from either Canberra or Sydney - the cheaper the better!
Not sure what your definitions of cheaply are, but SYD-PER flexi at the moment, $305 for 40SC each way. At ~$7.60 per SC it's not the cheapest ever (certainly not compared to the MEL-OOL Flexi@$109 from a few weeks ago or whatever it cost) but it might get you there... If you had a travel buddy you could pool from, you could have some time in Perth as a getaway too, and not have to do it twice.
If you do that twice, with the half price upgrades (and the bonus double base fare earn), depending on which status tier you're in you might end up points neutral and as a bonus get to fly in the nice J cabin on the 332...
Orrr you could do SYD-MKY in J for $429 each way (60SC@$7.15/SC) as well as something like SYD-OOL flexi return to make up the last 40, overall that'd give you +160SCs for about $1200 (similar to the Perth option, maybe a shade under) and have you see two much warmer parts of the world.
Typing this well into a few beers tonight so take it with a pretty large grain of salt
I'm by no means the SC run expert, but I do have a (my first ever) SC run booked later this year, SYD-MEL-OOL-SYD (Saver,Flexi,Flexi) which is a 60SC earn for I think $289ish (during the recent sale), which in hindsight I'm proud of!
Wow that was a lot longer than I was expecting it to be...
