    Xmas QFF flight to Europe needed. Help.

    Thanks for the quick reply folks. Now, remembering I am a FF noob, I assumed that if I went into the oneworld website I could use my QFF points to find and book flights with other airlines. Obviously I was wrong. Any workarounds you folks know of. Thanks
