Hi, I am a Silver member of the Qatar Privilege Club with 112,056 Qmiles (and 150 Qpoints). I am looking to fly business class from Melbourne to London Heathrow on 25 July 2014 (QR905 to Doha, then QR3 to London - current price $3261) and from London Heathrow to Melbourne (QR4 to Doha, then QR904 to Melbourne - current price $3614) on 22 August 2014 (with a few days flexibility at both ends).
What are my options using cash and/or Qmiles to get a return business class flight from Melbourne to London on a oneworld alliance airline?
If I want to use my Qmiles for a one-way upgrade from economy to business:
- Is there a way of checking whether an upgrade is available before I buy the economy ticket?
- Will I know if I have the upgrade straight away or is it like Qantas where you don't know until a few days before the flight?
- What are the chances of an upgrade using my Qmiles?
Thanks everyone for any information you can provide.
