Hi everyone, I booked 2 x J return SYD to DFW for later in the year. 448K in points and approx $1,730 in fees and charges. Not unexpectedly, I now see they have these flights on sale for $6,500 pp meaning: 1. I would now be getting less than the often quoted and mythical 3c per point in value...

Very happy camper here as yesterday I was able to book 2 x J classic awards SYD to DFW return for Sept/Nov next year. There seemed to be lots of availability from late May onwards though nothing in F from what I noticed. Are they struggling to fill this flight as it seems unusual to me that so...

Hi everyone, Just interested in your opinion on what I should do. We are flying into DOH from JBG in J on QR and are due to arrive at 11.55pm. We are not transiting and will be in the country for 4 days. Assuming it will take some time to clear customs and immigration, I'm thinking we might...

With a new signature card and about 30K of spend a month which program would you post your points to?

Hi everyone, Looking for any suggestions both as to a suitable destination to get to from NY and also what I can do to maximise QF SC return without doing a proper status run. My wife just wouldn't understand!! We are in the US for almost a month, coming home 19th June and have 4/5 days spare...

Have just booked my first J flight to NY and back on QF107 and 108. I really only fly for leisure and probably wouldn't have ever bothered with flying up at the pointy end if it wasn't for this site and all your great ideas and information that is on here. Now I chase points and intend in future...
