    Help: Award flight to the US in July

    I'm curious, does anybody have any experience with later releases of F award seats? Am I better off snagging whatever I can get, compromising on the A380 or whatever and cutting my losses, or is a seat likely to open up on one of the flights I've already checked (and so I should hold out for...

    Help: Award flight to the US in July

    I've been checking flights ex MEL as well, but in theory the engine should pick up flights with connections from SYD.

    Help: Award flight to the US in July

    Hi folks, I'm headed to Washington (DC) from the 10th to the 15th of July for a conference, and I'm hoping to use some of my 320k+ miles for an F award. My main objective in this is to get a flight on the QF A380 in F. I don't need a return flight as I'll be doing something else in the US and...

If they're trying to flog upgrades to people on lower fare buckets, I imagine it's in...

    Upgrading "eligible family members" –*how strictly is it enforced?

    Hey folks, I'm flying with a friend, and I was thinking of upgrading. Since I've got points to burn, I figured I'd spend the points. However, when I go to put the upgrade in, it asks me what his relationship to me is. I understand that QF technically only allows you to upgrade "eligible...

    Hey all (and a question on SC runs to start off with)

    Hey folks, I'm Andrew, a long-time lurker and a first-time poster. I fly generally for work (I work for the internet), though there's a bit of self funding as well. I'm looking forward to having a chat with folks who don't blink when I talk about the way QF's reservations system blocks off...
