Hi All,
I'm trying to book an itinery to get three people from MEL to LHR around xmas next year. I may try and turn it into a 140k but at the moment I am focused on getting out of Oz.
I am not finding any economy availability being released by Qantas, not even when I search for a single traveller. I am searching approximately 353 days out at 10:30am Brisbane time as this is the time I understood availability is released. In fact QF availability for the direct flight seems to stop on 13th Dec with nothing new being released. I am trying multiple scenarios varying departure ports with the only success being via HKG out of ADL on CX.
Bizarrely the only availability for three people I can find to HKG out of MEL is in business - nothing in Y!
Am I missing something as to the timing of the release of economy tickets by the airlines? My status is Silver for what its worth.
I have an itinery out of ADL via HKG on CX that will work (and avoid most 'taxes') but this would involve overnighting in ADL and a tight connection in HKG - so ideally I'm looking for something simpler.
EDIT: I am looking any time from 20 Dec.
