I recently received notification that $600 of my accumulated Airpoints dollars are due to expire soon. As I'm in Melbourne and the travel bubble has only just been announced, but I have no immediate plans to travel until after my vaccines, I don't really want to lose the hard earned dollars.
I notice that all bookings now have a free change credit so that's my current thinking of purchasing a ticket but then requesting a cancellation credit.
When I did a dummy booking, I noticed that I can't use my airpoints dollars for the taxes and have to pay for those in real money.
So, my question is, can anybody offer me suggestions of the best route with low taxes to make the best use of these soon to expire dollars?
