Is this for QF or VA ?
Better at ask on the QF or VA forum where like minded folk hang out

For the geographically challenged (like me) which airport is closest to Safety Bay ?

This QF forum sticky thread is worth reading http://www.australianfrequentflyer....tus-run-options-quick-35258-4.html#post839589

Just done Per-Adlaid-Syd return can only come up with 70SCs. 35 short , any suggestions please, or am I missing something, thanks

Per- adl 1 way on business gets you 80 sc by my calculator then double it if you have that offer
Are you looking at business any seat awards? Which are the best way to rapidly get SCs Their point costs vary wildly though.

Lots of threads here on methods to find them or just play around with times and dates
Perth to Karratha on a JASA is 40000 points and gives 60 SC s each way
Per-Mel is 59000 ish and gives 80 each way

This thread is very similar to your thread of yesterday for your other half
http://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/your-questions/170-scs-short-for-gold-51338.html
Both are better in the QF forum

Done Per-Adl-Syd Return 66000pts +$326 = SCs 70, then Syd- Auckland return 28000pts +$190 SCs 40 total 110 SCs I get double=220 SCs so that gets me over the line, is this a good deal ?or any other suggestions, thanks

Presumably you are doing this as economy fares to get such a low sc haul, which seems a more expensive and slow way to do it

Read previous posts and have a look on relevant threads on the Qantas frequent flyer section of the forum
By my calculations if you have the dsc offer, flying business return to Karratha (JASA )
You would need 80000 odd points and get 240 SCs

Or have I missed something ?
