Middle East Airspace Diversions/Cancellations

[henleybeach]

I’ve pulled the trigger as well.
We were departing Adelaide on May 10 to Doha with a 3 night a stopover before continuing to Europe. Return flight was transiting Doha.
Just booked return flights PER - JNB
/ CPT business class using velocity points departing May 11 and returning 26 May.
We thought it was best to “move on” and plan our long lunches at wineries in Stellenbosch! And a safari at Etosha.

If you don’t mind me asking, how easy was the process to book these?
Did you source the award seats via a dummy booking on someone like SQ and then call up Velocity ?
