Hi all,
I have a trip to the US coming up and have a few questions to make the most of it.
I am looking for Sydney to San Francisco to Washington, DC to Sydney.
The Qantas multi site tool really can't handle this search and I'm not sure if by breaking it up into multiple bookings, that I am getting the best value.
I did notice that the American Airlines page works for this, and I can select QF for long international legs. I just wanted to know:
- Will I have food and baggage on the QF legs? What about the domestic US sectors?
- Will I still accrue 100% of any QFF points or credits even though I have booked via AA?
- Can I upgrade my return leg to business using QF points (assuming a seat is still available)?
Second question, if I do use points to upgrade to business, do I still accrue QFF points and credits at the higher rate?
EG, if it's 45,000 points to upgrade, but by flying business I am now entitled to an extra 20,000 points, does that mean I am really only ~ 25,000 points out of pocket?
Finally, if I can't get a oneworld flight, how does a QF A380 compare to an United 787 for the long jumps? Is it vastly different?
Thanks!
