Looking to head from Sydney to Los Angeles for a week in October and have spent years accumulating a bank of 200k points for occasions like this.
Go to book my flights and then Qantas asks for $850 in "fees and taxes".
What's the point of earning points if the surcharge is 50% of what the fare actually costs?
Are there any ways to minimise this to a more reasonable amount? I have tried varying the travel dates, but to no avail.
Any advice or information would be very much appreciated.
