Thanks guys, some really good ideas in here and appreciate the speedy responses. What sort of taxes am I looking at with an entirely one world itinerary? I've had award nexus for quite a while and agree its a great tool which I was happy to help test and to donate to. All travel so far has...

Hi, looking for a one way J for 2 pax from oz to London. Have US airways latest offer as an option but keen to try to use some QF and BA points if at all possible rather than buying and 'wasting' the USDM points on a return. Between my husband and I, we have a total of 216k QF and 80k Avios...

Anat0l - thanks again, I definitely don't have the required patience to gather even more OW points but thanks for the tips and really appreciate the detailed responses. Thank the Lord for DM, it's enabled both of us to have 4 trips 'home' in 4 years for various reasons, not all planned so I...

Wow Anat0l - thanks so much for including all the possible permutations! I knew it was more complex than *A but I think I'm going to re-read what you've written a couple of times after a lie down... We've been hoarding the points on the understanding that we'd need loads to do anything and...

Hi there, Myself and hubby have managed to accumulate about 260k in QFF points by flying over the years but have squirreled these away while we've been buying and redeeming US Airways points like a pair of drunken sailors on shore leave for trips to the UK/Europe. As a consequence, we're very...

I'm glad I happened to be online when Mal first posted the Qantas deal but the seats are still available at less then $6k for my dates so hopefully wouldn't have missed it in any event. Still chuffed and really looking forward to the trip now. Cheers! Mags

Mal - I'm LOVING friday 13th so far! Two seats booked to London, upper deck of 747 for less than the Etihad flights were that I missed and I get points. It's all good...! A very happy Mags is now off to try and sleep after all that excitement.

Saw the JAL one and a stop over in Tokyo is very tempting but it's $7200 BEFORE taxes from Melbourne to London which is in zone 2. I'm keeping an eye on Best flights offers as well as Jetabroad, is there anywhere else that I should be checking regularly? We're holding the MH flights with...

Docjames, you nearly gave a coronary, I was already imagining the limo rode to the airport! Yes, sorry it needs to come in under 6500 AUD or as close as possible. Am I the only one determined to hold out in case a good deal comes along? I know I'm risking capacity being cut but surely...

That's more like it! Have had a look on Expedia but can't find it, what are the flight numbers and dates? I'm searching on 22/05/09 to 13/06/09 but can be flexible on the return by a few days earlier if it brings the price down drastically. Cheers all, I knew you'd come up trumps! Maggie

Not a bad shout, their taxes have certainly come down by a few hundred bucks in the last few weeks but overall they come out at $7415 inc taxes. I'm trying to get $6500 or less including taxes so they're about $300 dearer than the cheapest on Jetabroad.

Hi, Newbie here so apols if I'm posting in the wrong place. I'm trying to get 2 J seats to London leaving around 22/05/09 for less than 7k each if possible. I just missed the Etihad sale by hours (to say I was annoyed is an understatement..!) where seats were $6100 all in on jetabroad. I'm...
