Hello folks!
Most of my flying has been simple return flights but we're planning a "big trip" using a RTW fare and it’s much more complicated than what I am used to and I want to maximise the value I receive from the business class fare.
I think I could use some advice from the many knowledgeable posters on this site.
We will be flying out in mid May.
We intend to go with One World partners through MEL-LAX-MSY-SEA-YYZ-LHR-ARN-HEL-LED-SIN-MEL. We will be going business class. Most flights seem to be with Qantas, AA, BA and Finnair. The trip is for about 8 weeks in length.
Our current Q FF status is negligible (bronze) and we don't have QC memberships.
1. We have a few AA domestic flights and they don't appear to have business class. Do we get any concessions for the higher fare or do just get treated equally with economy?
2. Do we get any lounge access privileges in OZ or in other countries?
3. Is there anything I can do to maximise FF points from this trip? I note that the points you get vary with a range of factors.
4. Any general advice for maximising value from the business class fares!
Hope you have a few minutes to help me out - Thanks!
