Awesome AFF - I downloaded the AFF Guide recently and have already saved money by avoiding Qantas's credit card fee by purchasing $50 gift vouchers first and redeeming them.
Couple of tricks I noticed - you have to redeem the vouchers before starting to search and book your flights. Vouchers can't be used as part of the normal payment process.
Also I got confused and only purchased one gift voucher, so I had to go back and purchase a second to be able to book my wife. It means that we have two separate bookings, although Qantas have promised they're now linked 'behind the scenes'. So when booking using this technique, make sure you purchase as many vouchers as people flying.
Thanks again,
David
