To further update my posts on my Qantas Oneworld Classic Flight itinerary previously, I am very happy to report that after sitting on line for over 2 hours (no call back options offered this time strangely) I have had clarification from the agent who has stated categorically that I have 12...

For departure date conditions, the rules state: "14.6 Classic Flight Rewards - ticketing 14.6.1 Classic Flight Rewards will be valid for one year from the original ticketed departure date" Given the above, I'm wondering why they told you your ticket is only valid for 12 months from issue date...

This is an update to a post from a couple of days ago about a Qantas Classic Oneworld flight award I had booked back before the mileage increase last year. As advised, I spoke to a very helpful Hobart agent who suggested that in order to avoid having to pay the new increased mileage cost of...

I haven't tried yet - as per Celeste's advice, I'll wait until towards the end of May and hope to make a similar itinerary booking for say early next year. I'll book dummy dates (if possible) for the last half of the itinerary and change those closer to the date when flights become available. I...

In answer to your concerns: 1. Yes, from my understanding of pre-covid-19 rules, the flights are valid for a year from original ticketed departure date but in a situation where Qantas cannot supply the flights for the ticketed start date, I am hoping that the onus is on them to defer the same...

I’m posting this for the information of anyone who, like me, made a Qantas Classic oneworld J booking prior to the points increase in September last year. My husband and I were due to leave on June 1 on an extensive itinerary, including a three month stay in Toulouse to spend time with our son...

Thanks so much DC3 - really appreciate that advice! Looking good for my trip then! 😊

Thanks exceladdict - appreciate the answer. And with DC3's response to another query above, I will assume that I can add the flight I want to BKK pre-departure as well. Cheers

Given that it’s early days yet to gauge how the September 18 changes to the award travel will pan out I would appreciate thoughts from more experienced award travellers than myself. Early signs on this forum are encouraging that Qantas may not readjust from 280K to 318K points charged for a...

No apology needed - thanks so much for that. I have done some additional reading and was hoping that my assumptions were correct. However, I'm very much a beginner at the Qantas Oneworld Classic Flight Award but learning all the time - with your clarification I'll rest a little easier!!

Can you clarify this for me please? I have just booked my flights on a Qantas Oneworld award for a trip commencing June 2020, using dummy dates for the latter half of my flights as I am not intending to return to Australia until March 2021. I am operating under the assumption that I have 12...

Really enjoyed China thanks - just got back - quite an eye-opener to compare it to the last time I was there 20 years ago... Re my bookings, I am under the impression that I cannot change route OR carrier once the itinerary has commenced - only the date. Thus my decision to use major...

Hi - sorry for the silence - we've been in China and it's exceptionally difficult to get internet! Yes I researched dummy dates for all my remaining flight segments after LHR (which I had previously booked) as we won't actually be taking them until late 2020 through to March 2021. I got a really...

Thanks Aikman - appreciate your looking at it. I will try but I suspect you're right - Qantas probably won't put it through... I will have to try and brainstorm a backup plan - I was going to try to cut out the BKK segment by coming back from CUN via HKG and adding the BKK leg later but that...

I hope some of the experts on this forum have the time to check my Oneworld J Award itinerary: SYD-HKG-CMB (stopover) -LHR (extended stopover) -JFK (extended stopover) -MIA(economy)-CUN (stopover) -DFW-NRT-BKK (stopover) -HKG-SYD. 33,625 miles As advised here previously, I have booked...

I'm in the same situation as Kyah Hester - I've only booked my first two flights of a 9-10 months and I'd much rather be able to make the changes via SMS than wait 2 hours on line for a Qantas rep who might not know what they're doing..

Thank you - I will do that.

I am now getting really worried - I asked for advice on this forum in the last couple of days on booking a J Qantas Oneworld Classic Flight Reward: SYD-CMB (S/Over) -LHR(S/Over) -JFK (S/Over) -MIA-MEX (S/Over)-BKK (S/Over)-SYD : 33,500 miles approx My husband and I don't want to commence until...

Understood although it sometimes does depend on the day..... ;)
