Sbor90 all booked at 800 SCs - cheers If I can stretch the friendship my son renews same time and has 215 SCs. Need 45 SCs for silver....can you point me in the right direction on a uni students budget.

sbor90 thanks again for your advice last year - it looks like its still the value SC run for me just checking in to see if this is this still your view before I book

Thanks, will do :)

Yep you are correct I don't - my thinking was entering the new year with no status means no lounge access but travelling J will negate that so thank you, my vision has now changed - less pressure, plenty of time, less risk and 2 WP years - cheers

sbor90 I really like this approach - its taken me 20 years to get the 11,693 (LTS) 80% domestic Y - hard yards Haven't flow much for the past 4 years and want to make a push for LTG over the next 12 months or so QF status reset date March 31st 2019 current SCs 0 Current flights 0 Reading recent...

Thanks Richard -Yes I did mean AKL I will check his future travel and see if he thinks its worth going for Gold - his status resets in April 2019

My son wants to go Silver on a Uni study trip to Brasilia late Jan 2019 return late Feb 2019. Tight budget. Even the Qantas multi sectors via SYD ALK Santiago seem low SCs or am I expecting too much. They are between $20 -$26 per SC? Any assistance would be helpful - even tips, happy to do the...

re: Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options Moindardt, I haven't flown for a while and need to be in London 1st week of April the start of my QF FF year starting from scratch. I plan to fly to LAX and the do a SC run or 2. In ref to your comment A basic LAX-JFK-MIA-PTY is about A$1000...

re: AA "First Special"/"INstant Upgrade" fares - Applicablity to QFF & general Questions Thanks everyone... so sounds like SJU is the hit this year. I did the SC run last year from HNL to MCO via PAP (got stuck there, PAP, when the return was cancelled - wow freaky experience with no hotel...

Hi guys...I have been out of the loop for a while. Looking at SC runs on AA in November. LAX DFW NYC MIA MCO. I have noticed that the instant upgrade have diminished... 2 questions 1. Do First Special fares provide first class SCs 2. Can you suggest 700 SC runs. between SYD LAX DFW NYC MIA and...

OK - will do thanks

All - I was under the impression that by now the WP1 details were to be announced. Have I missed something? don't want to stretch to 3600 if there is no point this year :)

Mal -thanks I will give it a run...

Hi - I have noticed on a number of posts people describing the use of Sabre and other tools to gain access to a wider range of routes (more than 3 legs) - is this the case and if so what is the cost to gain access to these types of tools? do you have to be an agent? what else is out there?

ozmile - thanks. so maybe its worth buying access to Sabre to extract the maximum benefit? - I will travel to the USA 6 times this year and have done a couple of these YUP fares although as a -Y traveller in a small company $ are important as is setting the right example. If I pay around 2k...

dazz81 - I can see how you get the SCs as YUPP fares ( although I can't get that many legs on the AA site) but even if I could I can't get anywhere near that price! - is this also a result of using Sabre?
