In 2014 I booked a seven month RTW trip using Qantas FF points and oneworld alliance airlines. It was relatively straightforward to look up flights with eligible seats with the tools provided. I'm about to do this. again but find when I click on classic rewards flights only I get taken to a one...

Hi Steady, you should be receiving 20,000 points soon. Thanks for your help and advice. For others who were worried, like I was, that my bank-issued combined Mastercard and Amex (that are part of my NAB Choice Home Loan package) would make me ineligible for the 100,000 points there is a...

Sorry Steady but your link takes me to the Explorer version of the Amex card with MR points. I'd prefer to stick with QFF points (the Devil I know) as I want to again do a RTW Award booking - so please let me know if you have another referral link to the Qantas Ultimate card. How do you generate...

You've been very helpful Steady so I'd be happy to "refer" you - however I've spent an hour trawling through numerous posts but can't find what I need to do - so if you can advise me of the procedure or point me at a specific post that has your referral details I'll see what I can do. I assume...

OK here are a few Specific questions. I have a NAB Qantas Platinum Amex and NAB Platinum Mastercard as part of a NAB Choice Pacvage Home Loan. Let's say I want to take up the 100,000 points offer for signing up to a Qantas American Express Ultimate Card. Do I have to cancel my NAB Amex card...

Apologies if I'm being dumb here but I already have a Visa, Mastercard and American Express card. In all the offers for "sign-up" Qantas FF points I've looked at (and that's about a dozen) the small print says specifically (let's say it's for an Amex card) that you must not already own an Amex...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread Hi benz, yep I actually asked her specifically about LAN flights but she told me that all award seats on those flights had been booked already. I'm a bit confused about this though - I can see some AA flights available as...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread Hi vetrade. well extremely interesting phone call with Qantas where I was complimented on my skills in selecting flights - apologies but I took the praise and neglected to mention the help provided by your good self and...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread OK thanks - sorry out of action for a week due to flu. My tours have been confirmed as has my career break leave. Just checking is it the 131313 number that I call to do the multi-city award booking?

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread yep i think you're right - still got to wait on one confirmation for a tour I'm booking (and official approval of my six month "career break"!) and then I'll be ready to book. I didn't realise that there was no charge if you...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread Thanks vetrade... since the lax lim flights don't show up online how can you see them? is there perhaps a syd - santiago flight and then santiago lima? cheers Dave

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread vetrade... sadly my initial enthusiasm has faded because I can't seem to find a flight for SYD - LAX - PHX - MEX anytime in February. I also can't find a direct flight from mexico City to Lima - as johnk pointed out -...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread thanks serfty that looks like just what I need. I'll compare with vetrade's suggestion too - oneworld interactive planner

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread Brilliant! Looks like those 2 suggestions make a world of difference... allowing me that 5th Stop - also as mentioned by another forum member, since the miles are calculated even if you do it as a land segment it would make...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread One more thing... is there a mileage calculator that you recommend? The one I used is OK but I've had to enter city by city and it's a little laborious. cheers Dave

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread Vetrade Ok just did a few calculations and it suddenly all makes sense. Wish I could get that 5th Stop in (somewhere... anywhere!) in order to maximise my use of the points but considering the cost will be about $1300 taxes...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread vetrade thanks for your suggestions - again very helpful and I'm pretty close now. I've spent about 3 hours trying a variety of combinations of flights and have managed to get a 5 flight multi-city to stick at 140,000...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread thanks vetrade that's a big help. Can I indulge you or one of the other gurus to help with my NEW problem! I unticked the Show qantas Partner Classic Award Cities checkbox and chose my flights as below. Then I selected the...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread I've looked through this thread and have a few questions about things I'm finding confusing. I have around 150,000 Qantas FF points and have been trying to book a Multi-City Award itinerary using 140,000 points - which I...
