Award Availability is a popular topic at the Australian Frequent Flyer. The ongoing challenge is to find an award ticket on the flight you want and when you want it.
Our in-depth guide explains how to redeem Qantas Frequent Flyer points for Business Class reward flights to the USA and Canada.
We analyse Qantas Frequent Flyer's decision to launch Classic Plus Flight Rewards. What does this mean for the program and its members?
Qantas Frequent Flyer has introduced Classic Plus Flight Rewards in the biggest change to its frequent flyer program since 2019.
With demand for reward seats at a record high, some airlines are adding a second tier of award availability or restricting access to certain seats.
You can book up to five Garuda Indonesia Business Class seats on flights from Melbourne and Sydney to Bali or Jakarta, using Virgin Atlantic Flying Club points.
South African Airways will resume Perth-Johannesburg flights from 28 April 2024. You can book a seat in Economy or Business Class using Velocity points.
Velocity Frequent Flyer members can no longer access Etihad Business or First Class reward seats more than 30 days before departure.
You can now redeem Qatar Airways Privilege Club Avios to book JetBlue flights, including its excellent Mint Business Class across the Atlantic, with no fuel surcharges.
Turkish Airlines will finally commence flights to Australia, with the launch of a Melbourne-Istanbul service via Singapore on 1 March 2024. You can already book a seat with points.
Japan Airlines will upgrade its Sydney-Tokyo flights to a Boeing 777-300ER from June 2024, bringing with it the reintroduction of First Class to Sydney. You can even book a seat using Qantas points!
British Airways is now only releasing a small subset of award availability on its own flights to members of partner airlines.
From time to time, Qantas releases extra Classic Flight Reward seats in large batches - including to popular destinations in Business and First Class!
