    You can now redeem Qantas points for JAL domestic First Class

    This notice was in today's Qantas Platinum newsletter: I hadn't really noticed before that you couldn't previously use Qantas points on JAL domestic routes in premium cabins. But it's also quite possible that I just never looked into it. Is this a new thing? FWIW I'm currently *only* seeing...
