    Article: Strategies for Cheap Business Class Flights to Europe

    Highly recommend the Hotel Lilla Roberts in Helsinki for a night or two. A beautiful hotel and excellent restaurant. Stayed there in 2018 and intend to go back again later this year.

This actually means 3 QFF per transaction NOT 3 QFF pts per $1 of the transaction value. In addition all transactions must be with the card...

    Qantas cancelled my Business Class classic reward and tried to charge me $3000 to reinstate!

    The ticket no appears once on the MH E-ticket covering both sectors. KUL is the change of sectors and flight. Sufficient?

    Qantas cancelled my Business Class classic reward and tried to charge me $3000 to reinstate!

    Flying cheap / in higher classes - sounds like too much work.

    I couldn't agree more - congrats to all the members who look after us newbies. Having "studied" the FF game for many years I feel I know a little, however after our last J travel to Europe in Sept/Oct 2016, my beloved can't understand why we can't travel J to Morocco just 6 months later. I try...
