Thanks but unfortunately most of my points come from credit card sign up bonus and I hardly come across Velocity offers.

Thanks, that is encouraging to hear. I assume you mean T-7 months and not days? :P Dilemma now is whether I should just resign to to book with JQ when they released their seats or wait around for Qantas seats.

I've been trying to find 4 economy seats on Qantas MEL-SIN or SYD-SIN or SYD-BKK for mid December and I'm not seeing anything. I can see one flight with BA for SYD-SIN on the 31st Dec but that's a bit too late for me. Is it the case that the seats have already been snapped up for mid December...

Yes, actually I'm in that boat. 4 hours transit to Osaka 😔 I actually gave the lounge a call and they didn't seem to be aware of the current rule and asked me to just link my invitation anyway. Will see if I get turned away on the day.

I was trying to link my complimentary invite to JQ flight for Cairns Qantas club but they had this message up: The Cairns – The Qantas Club is not currently accepting Complimentary Lounge Invitations for JQ passengers. Anyone knows why and whether or not that will change anytime soon?

Tried both options (country of departure & multi city) and still got the same error :(

I have been looking at the second week of Jan 2023. Just now for example, I found a flight from Ho Chi Minh to Sydney and tried to book and again the same issue. I think it's showing availability even though there's actually none. It is just so frustrating.

Hoping for some help or insight into an issue I'm facing with reward seat booking flying JQ. I have managed to book a one way flight to Bali however I have not been able to book a return flight. I was able to find flights from Ho Chi Minh, Singapore, coughet, Bali back to Melbourne however every...

I've been trying this morning to link the pass to my JQ flight which is definitely more than 24hrs from departure but all I got was "something went wrong". I think it's likely that they have shutdown the ability to link complimentary passes due to capacity limit. What's annoying is that they...

Thanks @mviy! I was fearing that was the case. Pity these passes will be expiring next month...oh well.

Anyone in the MEL domestic qantas club lounge at the moment? Can you please help check for me if they're accepting Jetstar customer with a complimentary lounge invite? I'm unable to link my pass online. Call centre told me the lounge is closed but I'm sure that's not correct. Cheers!

I'm from Melbourne. Let's say I book SF-MEL-BNE to take advantage of the discount and on the day I would forfeit my connection to BNE, would there be any issue?

I was just going to make a new thread asking about this. Previously, I found reward seats availability using JAL and BA but when I call in, Qantas says no availability. So is it a system bug or are they holding those seats for higher status members?

I went to Bali for the firs time last year and had the same concern regarding rowdy tourists. We ended up staying in Seminyak, Ubud and Nusa Dua and had no problems whatsoever so I would recommend staying in those areas. However, I didn't really enjoy Nusa Dua - it was a bit too secluded for my...

What an awesome trip! Thanks for sharing. If you don't mind, can you please share you experience on booking process? Did you search and book each segment separately or did you book the whole thing over the phone?

Thank you everyone for the tips. I have done a few more test searches on Qantas site and can see seats via CX this Oct/Nov. though more points are required. I've also created a BA executive club account to try and find JAL availability but it seems very limited. What about MH via KUL, is...

I tested a few searches for Oct/Nov this year but not much available. I'm bronze status unfortunately. Given that the trip is still a fair way off, for now I guess I just wanted to get an idea on the chances of me getting 4 J seats for this trip. If it's too difficult or unlikely then I guess I...

Hi guys, We're planning a family trip to Japan for October 2018 and will have enough points by then for 4 business class tickets. I've read that it's almost impossible to book multiple business class seats for flights to EU but is it the same for Japan? Any tips & tricks on how I can achieve...

How do I check for Emirates ward? I don't see them show up on QFF booking site. I did call Qantas today and they did say that there are flights from KUL-MEL for the dates I wanted for only for 2 people. Again, I couldn't see these on the qantas site. Am I doing something wrong? How do you...

Yes sorry for not being clear - I was referring to paid tickets. Good to know I still have a few months to hunt down award seats (although unlikely) or at least see if fares will be cheaper. Thanks.
