QANTAS Expensive Points + Pay options

[jadat]

In the past few months the "cost" of points+pay with QF has gone bananas. Business PER-SYD-PER is 72k classic awards and I used to Points+Pay adjust this to about 144k in points and $0...this got me my 160 status credits...plus some FF points...didn't cost dollars but did burn some points

Now the classic award is still $72k but the points+pay is a minimum 440k points +$0 which is absurd...when I play with the slider it becomes around 200k points and $1300 which I cant justify in points or dollars...I cant find any cheaper than this entry point of 220k points one way and some of them are 360k each way.

Am I missing something? Am I doing it wrong on the new website? what has changed?

Short answer is yes, see: http://www.australianfrequentflyer....t-flyer-program/asa-change-summary-52004.html

You need to look for classic award availability and then call the special number.
