Update: did this dance last year and got 150k called just then, no offer initially, proceeded to tell them that ill continue with the card cancellation (they saw that i had done the same thing last year) i mentioned that no AFR and no travel, they asked what would keep me going told them "give...

Which airlines did you pick? QR/BA/AA/JL is 1.7k, but already having QR and BA make the fuel charges expensive right? Can't imagine it being more (unless you're flying S7 now...)

Actually, something else regarding this itinerary - my previous itin had an extra sector: instead of JL52 SYD-HND, I actually had SYD-MEL-NRT. Not sure if it's because of this extra sector, but the phone operator from Hobart told me my taxes would go from 1.7k to 2.7k per person, and that it was...

So after whinging about QR removing award space, I've found some after the 17th January. Now my RTW looks like SYD-HND-LAX-JFK-LHR-MUC-DOH-HKG-BKK-HND-SYD, all in J except AA2 which is in Y. Here's hoping that QR opens up more seats so I can call up and wait 4 hours for a change :)

Of course, and given that half the A350s are grounded, we're only planning on flying routes like LHR-DOH where the Qsuites are most likely to be on. I've been using that resource too! That's why I'm fine with LHR-MUC-DOH, at least it's not on the 787 :)

My partner wants to try Qsuites, hence the stop at Qatar. I can't really force a stopover in DOH like with ITA using the QF website...And ideally, I'd like to visit one more Asian city before returning to Syd. Been toying with the idea of BKK or ICN, or even DOH-PER-HKG or something of the like

See itin here: I could confirm the itinerary on Qantas website - tickets not issued yet. Got that generic error so I called up QF at around 2am, got transferred to NZ centre and kind lady helped me to book. By that time however, QR showed no U inventory on any flight in or out of Doha. Other...

I have the following itinerary for two people in U: SYD-MEL-NRT HND-LAX (LAX-JFK) JFK-LHR LHR-DOH DOH-HKG HKG-SYD Travel after Boxing Day this year. Had the flights and everything, QF website error, and then as I'm calling, all the QR flights had U availability removed? So now my LHR-DOH and...

Successfully requested release for 2x Y seats for SYD-BKK return, one J released on return but I needed two. On a side note, if I requested a points upgrade from a Y award and it goes through a few days before check in, can I just cancel it and request for that J seat to be booked as an award...

Hi brains trust, I’m planning to fly from SYD-BKK on Monday April 11th 2022 on QF23, landing into BKK at 16:40 local time. After that, I plan to fly from BKK-DXB on Monday April 11th 2022 on EK379, departing BKK at 21:10 local time. They're on different PNRs. I am not planning to leave the...

is this something you do on a yearly basis?

@benjy thanks for the advice legend called em up today and got the 150k points

that's great advice, thanks! so basically i ask to go to the cancellation department, will HUACA work? since it seems as if it's the computer that decides my fate

called today threatening to cancel, but got absolutely nothing. but after reading some of the comments, seems like i have to commit to the cancel before they offer anything? i have a plat charge, full year coming in two days, average spend 5k a month anyone have any tips?

so uh... back on topic... did those who attempt QF43/44 get through without clearing customs?
