Finding Qantas Classic Reward seats in premium economy
Dec 09, 2016, 04:15 PMhaving worked in Qantas Res, believe me they release very few in the premium cabins...plenty in economy. I use my points on other Oneworld/EK/Partner carriers as they are easier to get. Nice to hear EK are going to have a PY cabin.

Using cancelled Qantas flight credit?
Sep 30, 2016, 04:14 PMMost fares allow a total refund less the cancellation penalty if it offers it that way. It should state nonrefundable but can be held in credit if that is it's requirement...I would call and check with Qantas on whether the balance after the 400 is taken off can be refunded. Normally ...
