HI all
I am planning a trip to Europe next year. I want to leverage though my business class trip so that I get free chauffeur transfers at both ends of my trip to London.
I would be starting with an estimated 300k Qantas points and 200k Velocity points. My question only concerns the trip to Europe. The return leg I will work out later, most likely via Japan.
My objective is MEL-SIN - LHR with a stopover of 2 days in Singapore. Can you have a stopover on a business class award?
First, ideally my chauffeur picks me up, takes me to Tullamarine where i check in and hang around the business class lounge for a while then fly to Singapore. I am not concerned about transfers at Singapore as the rail system is good. Mind you if they are available for free I'll take them.
After a oouple of days stay I board my plane to go to London and then get chauffeured to Ashford in Kent.
Is the above scenario doable using a minimum of frequent flyer points and if so which airlines/routes do I need to take? I am happy to fly via Sydney if necessary but not via Perth. The objective is to go via Singapore. I am also happy to mix and match airlines.
Thanks Peter
