Changes to Qantas FF programme are now online!

New look frequent flyer website too! www.qff.com.au

As expected, anyseat seems ridiculous.

I was expecting the introduction of new partners, but appears that it's just the same as before.

anyseat is a crock! just looked up MEL-LHR J class for next year and it was over 1 million points!!!

Looks like there are some 'bargains' (read glitches) if you are looking to travel on anyseat in the future.

For example, CBR-PER on 2nd September 08 in Business shows QF719 as 188,297 points, but QF872 CBR-SYD then QF581 SYD-PER is only 47,953 points.

Considering the classic rewards page shows the same CBR-SYD-PER trip at 52,000 points (64,000 with taxes) I'd consider the anyseat booking to be a bargain!

Similarly, booking CBR-SYD shows 34,689 points for Y (fully flexible) but only 22,673 for D.

Now to look for bargains CBR-SYD-LAX...

Just did a quote for AnySeat awards, Sydney-Los Angeles-Mexico City is 1,840,449 return in J, and 2,256,404 for F, flying on 24th Dec and return on 7th Jan ....

Amazing Value Surely all of us can burn points very quickly ....

We NEED a competition now on who can find the most expensive points requirements for QFF rewards. Should be good fun in the midst of such Qantas enhancements shambles ..... 3 categories: Y, J and F. The redemptions must be based on return journey from Australia to anywhere on Earth, and must be using the lowest available points required on the day that can be booked online .....

Quite a few international flights I have looked at are cheaper in F than J !!

The Jetstar 'Any Seat Awards' engine is working well - "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"

[hardya]

QF FFP has been outsourced for Jetstar Any Seat Awards:

* Jetstar Any Seat Awards booking service is operated by Carlson Marketing Group (Aust) Pty Ltd trading as Carlson Leisure Travel Service. Licence No 2TA 5778, IATA 02-3 5952 3.

Mostly laughable as predicted!

[Mal]

It's great that Qantas has introduced anyseat awards, but the points required are just laughable. Are they using monopoly points, or are they real point amounts they are quoting?

People seem to be concerned that 'classic' awards are going to disappear or be severely reduced. I don't see it happening.

So its pretty much waht we all expected.
Not more not less.
The sky has fallen !
