    Clearly va lounge access is explicitly listed as a benefit of the Amex plat au. But no mention on the USA Amex plat. Does USA Amex plat grant access to va lounges? (Would they even be able to tell the difference between a USA and aus cards)

    Parent (in J) and kids (in Y)on separate PNR

    Yeah was wondering about this. Seems like best approach is for 2 booking and split the parents between award and paid, and then change seats on the plane. Especially given my preference at this time in this circumstance to spend miles over cash on at least 2 tickets (points upgrades till...

    Good point - so if U is now available and I book in Y and apply for points upgrade it clears instantly?

    Parent (in J) and kids (in Y)on separate PNR

    Planning a trip MEL-PER and thinking that the mrs and I will use an AAdv J award and we will buy Y tix for the kids on the same flight. So how do I go about booking tickets for the kids on their PNR given we won't be on it but will be on the same flight? I don't want them to be regarded or...

    SYD-LAX J (or even any) redemption availability

    And if there is a reward J available on a date will it appear on top or do i need to also scroll down the list of flights? Do any other sites (like Award NExus or EF) provide ability to search for VA awards in a better way?

    Lounge Access Help Desk

    we're on QF metal but AA flight number. Does the JV between USA and Aus require that AA/QF flight numbers receive equivalence or something of the sort?

    Lounge Access Help Desk

    Pretty sure we're fine, but just wanted to check. I read over on FT that the TBIT lounge is a OW lounge operated by QF not a QF lounge! Does that mean that a QC member flying on QF/AA codeshare to MEL doesn't have access? Can't be can it?

    booking AAdv awards on QF

    thanks will do. One more question - if booking a Oceania-Africa award and I want to stop in both JNB and WDH (so MEL-SYD-JNB...JNB-WDH...WDH-JNB-SYD-MEL) and there is a JNB-WDH BA flight, will this be within the AAdv award routing inclusions? Or do I just need to purchase the BA JNB-WDH...
