One World J "RTW" Award seat selection?

[Borisdog]

So I've just managed to get myself and Mrs BD onto 2 x 280000 J awards via the QF Multi city tool.

I can select seats for all the BA flights but I have QR, AY, CX and IB legs that I can't do it with via QF.

Can I select if I go to the individual airline websites using QF's PNR?

If not then how?

A couple of them I don't really care about, just little A320s, but the CX leg in a 777 and likewise the QR in a 777 I would like to get right.

All help gratefully appreciated. Currently WP but will be P1 by the time these roll around if that makes a difference.

For those that use Amadeus your Qantas PNR (e.g. CX) should work on the respective operating carrier websites.

Yep, I know - but didn’t know the correct terminology

Looks like some nice flights, whats the routing/aircraft?
You managed to book all in one go online?If so, nice work!

 

[Borisdog]

Yeah, took a few goes but here it is

HKG - YYZ on CX 777
YYZ - HEL via LHR on BA. 350/320
HEL - LHR via Oslo, AY and BA 319/320
LHR - ZUR via MAD, BA and IB 320
ZUR - ATH via LHR, BA 320
ATH - HKG via DOH, QR. 320, 777 qsuites

We’ll fly to HKG return to position before and after under our own steam and likewise a side trip to Iceland to/from Helsinki.

It's a Qantas Frequent Flyer "Classic oneworld Award" ...

I could be wrong, but your QFF status would be a factor.

When do you head off and will you be posting a trip report? Looks like a cracker of a trip, well done.

Have you had any luck with seats? As you suspect, and @serfty confirmed, you should be able to use QF pnr on each carriers website. I’ve done this for QR, CX, AY with no issue. Haven’t had cause for IB.

 

[Borisdog]

Heading off in October, I’ve had success so far with CX but not QR, IB or AY. I must admit I haven’t tried super hard yet but I’ve had a quick look around the respective airlines’ sites and should be OK.

Qatar’s site basically says “Ring us”

Trip report - maybe! Not the most conscientious diarist on Earth.

You never know. It’s likely to be my last major trip anywhere, I really am over planes and being away from home.

If you can't do it with CX online give the Australian number a call and they are quite happy to help you out.
