OQA out for a trot

Ah yes, more things to get the frequent flyers back onside after years of neglect and … hey wait! This is ANOTHER negative 😡😡

You make a very good point, however having read some of the questions and discourse in FB groups about award seat hunting, I’m not terribly worried! 😅

Please let it be upgrading the multi-city portal, improvements to the usability of the award calendar, and making it easier to search married segments… (It won’t be)

EBB on a peculiar (to my untrained eye) job as QF51D this morning out of BNE, leaving two hours early?

Will happily also take a PM on the aforementioned *gestures at the last two pages* if someone's not too precious to share!

Apologies, should have clarified, international J with partners. Distinct lack of awards across a lot of airlines both well in advance and closer to the current date. Seeing a bit of UA to SFO in particular (from MEL) but definitely much slimmer pickings than four, five months ago.

Hopefully these churner denials aren't negatively impacting peoples' credit scores - it's a selection process, not based on anyone's actual credit...

Wow, seen JL43 is in line for the A35K in coming months - flying in early October, might get a sneaky look at the new J!

Fine, I'll be happy for OP first then... Nice work, I have noticed in recent weeks and months a lot more short-term and medium-term availability for nice awards - congrats on snagging first! Hope it goes well!

Have made a 45 minute connection once with no checked baggage. If you're picking up bags, maybe just bite the bullet on 9am.
