    The woes of trying to book OneWorld Classic Flight Award through Qantas

Needed to book a OneWorld Classic Flight Reward which cannot be done online (all the flights are there; the cost – points and $s – are all correct, but when it tries to go to the payment page it gives an error message. At...

    How to find QR award availability

    Is there any easy way to find QR award availability. I’ve tried the AA and QR sites (I’m a member of both the Advantage and Privileges) and never see any award flights (J or Y) for a range of itineraries (eg CNS/BNE to LON/BCN/MAN) with flexible dates around 25 Sep to 20 Oct but nothing comes...

    As per title, I have been on hold waiting for Qantas to respond to my call. I didn't get the "we'll call you back option" so I am left listening to their pusillanimous repeated messages (including "we will be with you as soon as possible") and childish sounds which supposedly pass for music...

    Swapping Economy and Business Seats

    I am currently WP and am about still about 2472 points from Lifetime Gold [LG] (not sure of the abbreviation), but have slowed down considerably in SC accumulation since retirement. To get closer to the LG, I am planning a DONE for me and my wife but I really (truly) do not see the value in...

    QFF Status Rules

    My first questions for the experts. I have emailed Qantas FF three times over the last two weeks with them; I get the automated acknowledgement receipt emails but never an answer. This is my third year as WP but I will lose it this year. My re-assessment date is 30 September at which time I...
