Hi all,
I'm looking to do MEL-LAX return in September and would like to travel in Premium Econ (there are no Business rewards available this late in the game). There are Premium Economy reward seats available out of and into SYD and BNE but obviously not between these and MEL given there is no PE domestically.
I called the Platinum desk yesterday and was told it would be possible to travel MEL to SYD or BNE in Economy and then onto LAX in Premium Economy all on one ticket so the connection is protected, but on calling back just now I've been told this isn't possible... Has anyone had any experience with this? My other option is to book the legs separately but I don't like to live that dangerously.
I made the point that I could buy a PE revenue fare between MEL and LAX (with the domestic leg presumably in Economy) so it should also be possible as a reward but this fell on deaf ears.
Thanks
