Hi all,
I thought I would post something I found about JASAs. Knowing how incredible the knowledge base is here, it has probably been discussed already, but I thought I would mention it anyway.
If you were to book a SIN-SYD JASA it would cost circa 90K. Using the method of reducing the points down to a classic award point level found in the sticky posts above, it would reduce it down to 60K.
However if you book a SIN-ADL JASA it is also around 90K but you can then bring it down to the classic award point level of only 50K.
Check the T&C that a stopover is allowed before booking. Only if a stopover is allowed then finalise your booking. At this point you can then phone the call centre to change the date of your SYD-ADL leg to wherever, ie a few days/weeks/months later. You should then only need to pay the cost of the airport taxes. We did this for our flight (which was via BNE instead) and it was only $35 in extra taxes for the 3 of us.
I thought that this would be perfect for anyone wanting/needing to gains few extra SCs.
And please no digs about why would anyone want to go to Adelaide. I may not live there but I am still a little bit protective about my old hometown.
