If you have both QF and AA on the booking, then you will need to call both carriers. The ticketing carrier is not relevant here.

You'll need to call both QF and AA to get the PNRs linked.

No it does not. @Brettmcg is referring to standalone domestic bookings where there are no international segments whereas I am referring to domestics that connect to an international segment.

Only if the flight is cancelled. The same applies to the 6000 points cancellation penalty.

You would've possibly overpaid on taxes but other than that, it's not an issue.

There is no restriction on this.

For international seat release bookings, where the domestic connection is knocked back by the robot... The written policy is that the domestic connection can be manually forced in as long as C class is available for J, or S class is available for Y, on the domestic on a standalone basis (eg...

You will need to call SQ to get the VA PNR reference and you can then select seats in the VA app (but not the website).

This depends on whether your source of avios is buying them or earning them. For example, if you bought the avios, in many cases using the lowest avios amount and maximum cash can be the best value depending on what the value is that you assign to the avios, because you stretch your bought lot...

In theory no... but the voucher portal has its alleged issues.

For QF, the equal or higher rule is based on pure dollar figures. QF don't restrict changing between cabins. Some airlines however have rules where it must be equal or higher AND also equal or higher RBD (ie. subclass). Eg. if your ticket was in D class, you can only go to D class or higher and...

You qualify by virtue of having an international ticket that bookends the domestics, irrespective of how long you stopover. Basically if you have an international ticket... (that can be train, ferry, cruise, flights...),, you're covered,

For more expensive domestic fares, you can exempt two taxes on the domestic ticket if you also have an international ticket. You have to purchase from a travel agent that knows how to do tax exemptions and they must be located outside of the US though, but in your example you could probably get...

QF don't have rights to sell CDG-DXB on its own as QF code and they don't codeshare on DXB-HKG at all.

You can use any points currency. QF flights booked as BA, AA, AS etc. awards are all fine if your QFF number is in the PNR.

For QF direct bookings, if your ticket was worth $500 and you book a new fare that is lower, eg. $200, then the $200 fare will use the existing PNR and a new PNR will be created for the remaining $300 credit. For agency bookings... you can just re-use the same PNR over and over.

I have seen this incorrect information being sprouted for quite some time now... so for the sake of getting it right... For QF flights, QF sets the fuel surcharge. You are correct that these go to QF's bottom line. However, for non-QF flights, QF doesn't set the fuel surcharge at all. Carriers...
