Qantas points never used to be this useless. I think losing Qatar to Velocity was probably the final nail. What are people actually using QF points for these days? Once upon a time I booked 2x 280k J awards with Finnair, Qatar, Air Jordan, Cathay and more. I'd imagine piecing an itinerary like...

The fact that you have to click a tiny "award flight" button to use your points properly, leaves many unsuspecting Qantas users spending far more points then they should - this is 100% deliberate

This is a lot of phantom availability

Its almost as if they make a lot more money off people wasting their points on JQ or even worse, not understanding what a Classic Award flight is and booking with points - which is the default offering. Very shady from Qantas, they continue to prove to be "The Stench of Australia"

Background: I dont fly Qantas much, in fact I'd avoid at all costs. Regardless, I'm a silver, and have lots of points. I also have AA and Alaskan points which I use to book QF J - if I have to fly them. Looking at 4 Economy award seats in October for the family to return from Singapore to...

Got mine today too!

Chased up my bonus 50,000 points, was told they will (finally) come on the 29th... will keep you posted

I should be getting the bonus points shortly then, got the base points (from money spent) straight away

Had this card for nearly 2 months, met the spend in the fist 10 days. Has anyone got the 50,000 aeroplan points yet? Still waiting...

How long did it take you all to receive the extra 50,000 points from Air Canada?

In my opinion, yes. With award seats harder and harder to find, the ability to send your miles to 20+ programs is great. Transfer Points to Miles

QF and CX are good value redemptions. Access to many more but some are not worth the points (SQ for example)

Which is a business class return to and from anywhere in Aus (including a stopover) - when you're based in Perth like me, its a good deal imo. Also like the CX award pricing and the new Starlux partnership

I'm keen to just stockpile Bonvoy points at this rate, the Bonvoy to almost any airline rewards program you can think of really opens up the options. Particularly like Bonvoy to Alaskan Airways

Is this specific to a particular AMEX card? I've been a big fan on using Marriott to get AA and Alaskan miles in the past but cannot find this offer (I have AMEX Platinum)

Book and stay prior to expiry date unfortunately.

Idea, book PER-KUL-SIN call back and ask to remove the KUL-SIN flight and add KUL-HKT? Or will they have to rebook the entire trip starting from PER?

Having some issues with MH J awards, the PER-KUL J flight shows if I search for PER-SIN (shows as PER-KUL-SIN) but I can't get it to show if I put in HKT as the destination, or just searching PER-KUL and trying to build a multi city award. Married segment issue? What are the chances the call...

Qantas customer service is terrible, the phone centre is a joke and the latest QFF "enhancements" laughable, business class sub standard, catering getting worse and worse. The cost cutting never ends, $300+ million profit annually from QFF apparently isn't enough! After my next 2x OWA bookings...

No worries, I forgot DOH on the return from Europe, updated my post. Essentially for Europe + NA, you need Eastern Europe and the West Coast of NA to make it work. I'm looking at including NYC in my next one, but that limits me to the Middle East or Asia for the 2nd trip
