    PER-MEL via Adelaide - Does that count as four sectors?

    Well the miracles continued ... got another upgrade to Business for the flight home as well. However, had to move to the first flight of the day. I will note though that I had to deal with the rudest of business class passengers ... No I wasn't responsible for your husband and you not sitting...

    Hi Dougie, Thanks for your detailed post. We have just cracked the magic number for a RTW business class in points. I am hoping that it doesn't become the issue that it has for you. However, it seems that would be the case.

    PER-MEL via Adelaide - Does that count as four sectors?

    Thanks for the info. I am often FLEX as I run my own business and sadly seem to get issues before "footy weekends" with MEL mates. The only reason I am in this position was the draconian WA COVID locked state situation. A couple of times it has been on the PER-SYD route ... even when I have...

    PER-MEL via Adelaide - Does that count as four sectors?

    From what I can see the only day I can confirm business both legs is a Wednesday. It’s significantly cheaper than PER-MEL direct by nigh on $1000 pp return. PER-BNE-MEL is simply time stupid and PER-SYD-MEL is more expensive again. I had asked previously considering my issues getting Plat x 4...

    Could someone confirm if I do a flight (Business Class) PER-MEL via Adelaide that that counts as four sectors? Also as another query, are there ANY business savers seats availed for upgardes anymore or am I wasting my time trying to keep my Platinum. Every effort I have tried to get a business...

    Thank you. I’m a member of both sites. I wasn’t planning on starting from Perth. I was planning on flying to Sydney to start the RTW. However, I will take your advice on perhaps Singapore, Bangkok or Tokyo as a start point.
