Hi all
Due to some changes in plans mrs sim is now going to be doing some travel with me over the next few months. I am just trying to work out the best approach for for us to maximise the FF program.
I am currently a QF gold and just about to undertake the AA platinum challenge.
We have two return flights planned: SYD-BNE (discounted) and SYD-BKK (possibly world traveller + if I can pursuade her that its worth it).
My options are (I think):
1 - Get mrs sim to join QFF (cost $80) and get her to donate her points to my QFF account. She wont be flying too much and I can use her points for domestic upgrades. I can then use my AA points (generated from International Business travel) for flights for her and I.
2 - Get mrs sim to do the platinum challenge if we do the SYD-BK-SYD flights in world traveller+ - that way at least she will be AA PLatinum until Feb 2008 and then gold until Feb 2009 and will generate points for herself - and again I am not sure what we can do with those points - i.e. can she give them to me to maximise points.
3 - Get mrs sim to simply take AA points if we dont do world traveller+...
Any thoughts/
Cheers
