the lead in A fare return though is $14000 NZD ish if I recall. OW for 8840 AUD is hardly cheap.. J trans-pacific if I recall fare rules right, used to allow a stopover in sydney. therefore you could strategically book akl-syd-lax//lax-osyd-akl stopover on Sydney in the return and save a...

I'm curious, has anyone managed to get J released on QF3/4 yet? either SYD/JFK vv or AKL/JFK vv?

I must have been slow when I looked since I could only find QF3 ex Syd. having said that, I haven't seen any since even in W or Y

Even on day 1 when they did the points plane there was no independent QF3/4 AKL-JFK vv I suspect that this will be like the old QF25/26 situation, where you could get MEL-AKL-LAX/LAX-AKL-MEL but not AKL-LAX/LAX-AKL. It will be interesting to see if you could request this through Hobart using...

it's only hard if you use a QF search engine, it's easy if you use any TA or OTA. while there are some married segment restrictions it's been very easy far to get D fares. there are no published I fares beyond the three eastern ports I can find

it's not a married segment logic issue, it's actually a manipulative QF search engine issue to maximize profits I've concluded. I've mentioned this before in a previous akl - per discussion, where the trans-continental books into economy on no matter the business fare (J, C, D or I). there are...

while QF won't control married segments, the other carrier may have their own married segments Finnair/KLM/China Airlines is an interesting combination. potentially not married segments then? it's hard to test without plenty of availability around.

It is very likely that it is a married segment issue. If you try to drop HEL-AMS, then it is very possible that there won’t be any AMS-TPE-MEL availability. If you no show HEL-AMS, you forfeit the entire ticket. Basically you should be prepared to travel from HEL…hate to break it to you. It...

So also added 11/1 to see if I could get a bit later to my SYD-ICN, still got droid says no, allocation exceeded When you look at the loads its J9C9D9I9 with no seats allocated on any flights. I'm still convinced there is a blackout period during Jan

Tried my luck for January for SYD-ICN, knowing that I might run into blackout season QF 87 4/1/24 I8 (POS Aus) - Droid says no 9/1/24 I9 (POS Aus) - Droid says no back to more planning and thinking

You’ll be ticketed in the economy cabin between HKG/TYO/HKG If you really wanted to sit in premium economy the whole way, HND (CX548/549) is guaranteed a 77W on the timetable which has premium economy. NRT has a few 359 flights which also have premium economy. You’ll just need to search...

I wrote about the issue known with the Perth fares on FT about a month ago when I was looking for work. For some reason the QF search engine will bung you onto Y trans-continental SYD/BNE/MEL - PER but have the trans-Tasman (TT) sector in business. Initially I thought this was because there is...

Did they actually issue an 081 ticket out of curiousity or just an e-ticket confirmation? Personally I still think that this falls to CX rather than QF, they could have chosen to honour the reservation but chose not to.

I mean, you can jump up and down all you want but I really think that you’re going to struggle to get traction from QF in this situation. The way I see this particular situation with the CX flights booked on Friday, is very much like a error fare/mistake fare type situation, rather than the...

the CX issues were not so much related to CX, as much as it may be QF end related when all of us were spamming the search engine. I'm actually wondering if inventory was not keeping up in real time, so some people got 'ticketed' without a confirmed seat. the question is what obligation does...

So I think the glut of the seat drops were on a few limited routes, mainly LAX / LHR / SIN today What I have noticed is minimal QF seat drops on HND/ICN/HKG in peak seasons (much less so than say LAX/SIN). If seats were released, more often then not they are on JQ. There are a sprinkling of QF...

I've spent all afternoon looking, I haven't noticed any. most of the seats flagged are all JQ, but I'm looking Nov/Dec

greyed out on CX means you can't book I thought? available on that website is if it is a white background isn't it?

I agree ICN/HKG/HND all drawing blanks except for JQ

lots of first showing up now on QF2 Sept oct
