    Aeroplan (Air Canada) is now selling points

    I spend some time overseas and sometimes my A c cards are knocked back. So I usually put the money in a Wise wallet and use that app and Visa card. Comes through when others don’t.

    Aeroplan (Air Canada) is now selling points

    Same boat. I joined and got 125% somehow. I have a great deal of flexibility with time and destinations so I got A$5K. My 28 degrees was declined. Same ANZ Black. So I put the money in my Wise Visa and used that. Fingers crossed the points will go in soon.

    Qatar denied extra capacity into Australia

    This ongoing spat between Q and Qatar is devaluing my hard earned Q pts. When One world alliance is anything but.

    30 countries in past 12 months

    This is my first trip report so I don’t know what I’m doing yet. Unfortunately I didn’t take photos of the lounges and I’ll spare you the holiday snaps. My wife and I finally got to execute some Qantas award bookings and we got carried away. We are only bronze but now live in Thailand which...

    I do like the planning and booking phase.

    Why not just use TripIt ? Has most of that info and easy to add any other.

    Are Qantas Flight Reward Tables an “estimate” only?

    Ahh. Thanks for that. So a major difference between the partner flight reward table and the one world is that any stopover on the partner one re-sets the calculation. Maybe I should just fly RTW then.

    Are Qantas Flight Reward Tables an “estimate” only?

    Yes. I mentioned that I have successfully used the One World Classic Flight Reward Tables before. This enquiry relates to the Partner Classic Flight Reward Table and my itinerary is BKK- HND-CTS- - NRT- SEA- - SFO-HND. All flights are with JAL flying J class.

    Are Qantas Flight Reward Tables an “estimate” only?

    I would appreciate any advice on this advice I received in writing from Qantas. In May 2022 I booked a Partner Classic Flight Reward flying only JAL and the one way miles are approximately 14000 (less than 15000). I used Qantas’s published Partner Classic Flight Reward Table and ensured I met...

    Qantas Call Centre Long Wait Times

    Update. I got someone in Hobart on the 396 number above and she was fantastic and actually knew how to get stuff done. Apparently booking RJ is more complex than it should be but she persisted and now after over $60 in call credits I have it sorted.

    Qantas Call Centre Long Wait Times

    I was on hold for a total of 9 hours yesterday to 4 different staff (and I’m calling from Thailand). Three times the call cutoff while they were sorting the amended taxes. IAfter the first two, I ensured the rep had my correct mobile number and they agreed to call me back if cutoff. Twice no...

    If my Business Class Classic Rewards Flight is cancelled do Qantas have to put me on another Business class flight?

    “”As Pushka said, be careful that a problem with the first leg doesn't put the entire itinerary in jeopardy. That is, say if you decide to cancel that leg and go on a paid flight, the entire itinerary might fall away.”” My understanding is that you can cancel any individual leg as long as it’s...

    "oneworld" award (132.4K/249.6K/318K/455K) Planning - The Definitive Thread

    “Getting in and out of Australia is the tricky bit”. This is very true. I have arranged 3 RTW trips but had to cancel the first 2 due to Corona. I am now living in Thailand for a year or two and have found it relatively smooth to organise each time. I gave up on splitting the trip into 2 with a...
