Looking to book a J flight in September. Have looked at a range of dates and legs (PER-MAN, MAN-PER, LHR-PER, PER LHR). I'm only in need of a seat one way with SQ to use some points due to expire - other leg will be with MH. Not too fussed whether it's SQ ex-AU or MH, though the best outcome...

Have an MH flight in J landing in LHR. Then, an onward BA flight, UK Domestic. These are on separate PNRs. Anybody know if I would have lounge access at LHR due to arriving in J, even though BA ticket doesn't provide it?

I took out an ANZ black at the start of the year, and am positive the offer was 50k QFF points and fee free first year. Followed up with them the other month as bonus points hadn't posted and was told it would be on the statement date after first 3 months. That was yesterday. Still no bonus...

Have a PER-SYD (rtn) trip coming up later this month. Keen understand how to identify whether my J seat will be the new J, the old J or the wanna-be J (the cough ones with the tray over the middle seat). Any ideas appreciated.

Couple of family members have a small number of points (10,000 each) which they are unlikely to use before they expire. They're happy to transfer to me if I cover the cost which, at today's prices is around $160AUD each. Interested in others' views on whether this is really worth it, or best...

Does anybody have experience in how to either cancel or change an aware redemption on MH (made online through their Enrich site), and what the associated costs are? E.g. if cancel, do you forfeit some or all points? Do you get the taxes/fees back? If you want to change, can you do this...

Hi All Not sure whether this is of interest, as not sure how the reward seats really work in the background, but on the off chance that cancelling my booking opens up a seat for somebody else, thought I'd post it here first, so AFFers have first chance to snap up. This is actually part of a...

Probably a very silly question I know, but have never made a similar booking before, so am yet to come across this.... Needed to get from PER to BNE using points in J. No seats available on direct flights, so the system offers my a connection in MEL in both directions. Am fine with this...

Family members have been taking yearly MAN-PER (and return) flights in Y. They will likely continue this at a similar frequency for the foreseeable future. Based on fares and timetables, the last couple of flights have been with QR. However, the some quick looking at the earn and burn rates...

Have the following options available for the same flights (LHR-KUL-PER), all in J - Convert 82k Altitude points, to get the required 51k MH points, and spend 455GBP OR - Use 171k QFF points (I have around 600k in total), and spend $1011 Am torn between using the QFF points - good to burn...

Booked a 2 sector ticket Saver Lite fare - first sector is PER-SYD (leaving at 05:35am tomorrow). Expert Flyer is showing plenty of J availabilty. Though received email 1 week out for Upgrade Me on second sector (SYD-CBR), no invite for PER-SYD (says it's unavailable). Just wondered if...

Am flying PER-CBR via SYD on VA. I wanted to do the two sectors on different days (so as to spend a night in SYD), but when I booked, it was cheaper to book as one ticket, with the sectors over two days. However, for the night in SYD, I won't need the baggage that I will check-in. My question...

Am flying SYD-PER shortly and, as it'll be our first time flying with our newborn, am considering buring some points to upgrade myself and Mrs BKB, to make the flight a little more comfortable. However, the flight is on a 767 with a 2-2-2 configuration and, based on some limited research, I...

Am looking to book 2 J seats to UK at the end of next year. The day I'd like for the outbound leg is almost available in the QFF system (hopefully the J seats will be too!). However, a thought struck me - as I want the inbound leg to be approx 3 weeks after the outbound, does this actually...

As part of a belated honeymoon, I have finally managed to get work to agree to me having 4 months off, from early April to early August this year, so that my wife and I can go on a RTW trip, as we've always wanted. We have a rough idea of the places we want to visit and, given there's not much...

hello Unsure as to whether this is the right forum section for this question - if I've got it wrong, please accept my apologies. I am flying VS from SYD to LHR in December, arriving circa 5am. I then have a BA flight booked from LHR to MAN at 6:30am. Given the short amount of time on the...

Hi New to this board and new to Australia - transferred here with my Aussie partner recently. We have FF accounts with BA, Virgin, BMI etc, but obviously makes sense to have one with Qantas, now we are based in Oz. However, being British, I'm not used to paying all of these fees for...
