Just had a look for VA reward seats on the PER-XCH and PER-CCK routes, and couldn't find a single one any time in the next year. Is VA blocking redemptions on this route?

I was trying to book a redemption flight for me and my partner from Helsinki back to either/or SYD/MEL/CBR/DPO, but could not find a single redemption flight to Australia for December/Jan. Then I found alternative flights all the way to KL, which is an excellent place for a few days' break. Now...

How do you know if there is 'accurate' emirates reward availability on the emirates website without having points in your account and clicking through to different menus. QF website is easier to click through to a point where you need enough points to book. Reason I ask is I don't want to...

I was a bit surprised to find just now that Qantas has J reward seats on QF5 PER-FCO on several dates over the next month. Get in quick if you want to book a last-minute business class trip to Italy using your Qantas points ;) There are also a few PE seats. I can't see any J seats coming...

If anyone is interested, there is currently Business class (I) award availability for several dates in March 2024 for 90,000 miles and up (plus taxes). They are using TG to BKK and then BR to LHR via MEL and also BR via BNE/TPE. I booked one myself very recently, and I don't expect them to...

I recently wanted to use my Etihad Guest miles to book a Garuda flight within Asia. I went onto the Delta website and found O class (Business award) availability on a suitable Garuda flight. But when I called Etihad to book, the lady on the phone couldn't see any availability on that flight -...

An interesting read, and I would probably agree with this. It has been even harder than usual to use points lately as people have accumulated more points during the pandemic and then all want to use them at the same time - just as capacity is reduced...

Hi, I am trying to book an award ticket using Qantas points for a flight with Iberia, Mexico City to Madrid in Business Class, in May. There is plenty of commercial seats available in the cabin on the day I am looking to travel. Is there a certain number of days prior to departure that...

I know that many of you are enjoying Matt's AFF on Air podcasts. As you probably know this is a free service available to all our members. But did you know that Matt also conducts regular webinars over at Frequent Flyer Solutions, our sister website. If you’ve tried to redeem your frequent...

According to OMAAT, you can apparently now redeem Aeroplan points to book long-haul J awards on SQ. This is something that is normally only possible using KrisFlyer miles or Velocity points. I just had a look and I can't actually see any long-haul SQ J awards available through Aeroplan. There...

Hi all, I'm looking to use points to travel DPS-MEL later next year. If I search for DPS-MEL Reward availability on my dates, the only award flights I am offered is a very roundabout trip via KUL, or DPS-SYD-CFS(!!!)-MEL... however if I search award availability for DPS-SYD the routing I am...

Hi All, Apologies if this is readily available elsewhere .... I'm seeing heaps of EK J award available from LHR/LGW to DXB in October next year on EF (O fares) but nothing on QFF, Does anyone know which award fare type EK makes avalable to QFF and - heaven help me - if I called QFF whether...

HI All wondering if anyone can help this Expert flyer showing Award seat availability on both Qatar & Emirates but when I check on Qantas & Virgin there are no Business seats available? - how can we find out if there are Award seats available- I hold Virgin Platinum Status & Qantas Gold Status...

I have booked flights syd-Tokyo in JAL with Qantas points as soon as they were available . I am finding the taxes on the journey Tokyo to sydney are much more expensive ie $600 vs 100 compared with the ticket being booked as a return out of Australia . I wanted to book the outgoing tickets the...

Executive traveller reported change in aircraft from A350 to 777 with first class: https://www.executivetraveller.com/news/cathay-pacific-first-class-london Just checked on the AA website, seems there is virtually at least 1 seat in First Class every day of the month of February and March next...

AA appears to be releasing very, very few domestic award seats when flights are loaded - for booking by FF partners. For example - August/September next year - I can't find a single award seat in any class between LAX and SFO. In the past, AA released heaps of seats on this route. I hope this...
