The expiry is supposed to be in sync with your P1 initially, but if your P1 lapses/expires or you remove them as the nominee, they will keep the platinum until their own anniversary month at which point it'll be reassessed on their own earnings.

Without seeing dates and itinerary I can't comment directly... but as long as the inventory is there, there's no reason why you cannot have 6 passengers in premium economy. Happy to have a look for you, please feel free to message me privately.

QF already offer fares that allow you to go PER-SIN-LHR-EU-LHR-US-LAX/DFW/JFK-SYD/BNE/MEL-PER. The catch is you need to go via the pacific in one direction, but you don't have to go that way in both directions. I know this is not the same as via Europe in both directions, but it's halfway...

There isn't. There's no standardised procedure that's listed in a reference article or anything like that.

Yes absolutely you can do this. I'm not sure how well versed the contact centre is in dealing with this scenario. As an agent, I do it all the time for separated/divorced parents, whether it's all commercial or a mix of award and commercial (eg. adult A is on award, adult B is on award, child...

Yes they have lounge access out of the NZ port before the QF service across the tasman, but not at the AU port for the onwards flight. This scenario has existed for many years, long before any NZ/QF agreement. The same happens on AA W fares ex-NZ via SYD/MEL/BNE to the US.

They can conditionally approve it subject to proof the other card is closed.

It'll depend on the point of commencement. For example, for point of commencement AU it'll probably be no fuel fines. For point of commencement ID it'll probably be ballpark 400 AUD per journey (eg. CGK-MCT-LHR).

You will need to collect and re-check. EK was the one that decided to be difficult - they did a dummy spit and tore up the BA/EK interline agreement because BA and QR got into bed with each other.

When that announcement happened along with a lot of trade support staff and corporate sales staff being let go, agents actively avoided putting pax on AA... The fact UA/DL didn't follow speaks volumes.

The QF website will only let you service QF flights (including other airline codeshares operated by QF), QF*EK, BA prime flights, QF*AA, QF*AY and I think that's about it. The ability to service BA flights on the QF website is a hangover from pre-2013 days when QF/BA had the EU joint venture...

There is no QF piece policy that allows 30kg. It's either 23kg or 32kg. The 30kg non-Americas policy is a weight limit, there is no piece limit when it's weight based. The argument in this case is that the 1 piece at 32kg should've applied to the ICN-SYD given that's the Americas piece policy...

Who was the original LAX-SEA operator? AS or AA? Regardless of who it was, they should've opened up alternative flights for you. Ask AS at SFO or even at LAX T6 to confirm they can see you've got a bag coming + the tag number is visible to them.

Yes and they applied their policy as per my previous post. Due to the ticket involving the Americas, the piece allowance applies which is 1 piece as you cannot have a ticket involving a weight allowance.

I can't remember when they lost the access... sometime 2023 possibly 2022.

See my previous post: The ultimate ticketed destination is MAD which is outside of USA/Canada therefore the US/Canada baggage rules do not apply. This means that each journey will potentially have a different baggage allowance as each journey is assessed for who the most significant marketing...

All tickets involving Americas travel irrespective of ultimate ticketed destination have the baggage allowance in pieces. That applies worldwide, to every carrier. That said, most if not all airlines spell that out poorly or not at all... QF do mention it but in vague form... Different...

QF previously had full access to QR PNRs... they don't anymore. The change happened at Amadeus level.

Send me the flights and dates. The lowest class you need to earn at BA is N class so it'll only be a mild hike compared to the lowest Q class you're seeing online.

Make sure AS can see your bag tag number in their PNR. Otherwise they may not onload it as it won't reconcile. As you've found it's becoming harder and harder to do separate ticket through checks on separate PNRs... for this reason it's better to have it all ticketed on one PNR to curb any issues.
