    Amex Membership Points to Velocity or Singapore Airlines? I have plenty of Qantas Points.

    But aren't Asia Miles difficult to obtain? The transfer from American Express to Asia Miles would only give me 20k points. I then want to cancel the card. How would I obtain more? I don't believe there are any Asia Miles point-earning cards, are there? Also I just had a look at the Asia Miles...

    Currently a member of Qantas with 1mil points. Should I also become a Virgin member? Or a Starworld Alliance member?

    HI all, As the title states - I'm currently a Qantas member with 1mil points. I fly once or twice a year to an international destination and am happy to fly economy.

    Thanks for your reply. Is another option for Dad to transfer points into his Krisflyer account, but then purchase my flight with his points? Can you use points to purchase another person's flight? Thanks

    How do I see if a points flight is available? Transferring from Amex

    Hello. Thank you very much for your reply. Unfortunately I don't understand many of the acronyms you mentioned. I've only just joined KrisFlyer, so am the lowest tier. What is "flight option in Y"? And what is advantage level? I'd prefer to buy a flight for the cheapest amount of points...

(i.e. on the Qantas website booking selecting "Use Points Only") 2) If the answer to Question 1 is "No"...

    Mum spoke to Travel Agent. Said she can book Syd to London Return Business for 280k points. How?!

    I honestly can't find the class selection at all! I've searched everywhere. So, are the "Qantas Oneworld Classic Reward" flights that people are talking about simply the "Use Points Only" option when searching on the Qantas website? Clicking this then brings up the Qantas Classic Rewards...
