Since when does QF fly from KL? Last time I saw a flight number of 380 with an airline prefix, it was delivery of Singapore's A380.
This isn't an A380 is it?

Think Codeshare with JQ flight.

Now that you mention it, looks that way.. However I can't find QF380 on the QF timetable.. A one off perhaps?

It won't be there since they don't market the JQ codeshares as QF flights. Its really just used for QF FF awards.

I remember flying QF Syd-Kul direct in 1996; I think the service stopped a year or two after. IIRC, it was QF 31/32 and it flew Syd-Kul-Sin return

Would be nice if they brought it back.. got a few trips there in the next few months so would like to post to AA rather than Enrich.

Yeah, I am trying to find the best way to get to KUL and get over the AA EXP hurdle. Options are BNE-SIN-KUL (using MH for last leg, connects well and have done it many times), BA WT+ via SYD and SIN but requires an overnight in SIN, or a DAS13 but means going via NRT in one direction. JQ is not an option for this little black duck. So its likely to come down to what class I will be permitted to book and availability.

I thought I read in one of your posts where you were either over the hurdle or would be soon?
No way will I make the hurdle to EXP. This next trip to PVG will at least get me requalified for AA Plat.
Amazing the accumulation of points on AA. Since qualifying as a candy thief plat last year, I've accumulated enough points for F class return to the UK. Had I stuck with QFF, I wouldn't even be halfway!

Not quite over the hurdle yet, but looking very much like I will. I requalled Plat back in June. Just need to determine if I will need to use my BNE-PER-ADL-BNE end of my DONE4 this year or hold it over until next year.

Don't forget you could get to KUL from SIN on a OW flight.
But may not connect well since it only runs once a day...
JL721 SIN-KUL 20:10 depart
return JL722 KUL-SIN 21:35 depart.

Its an extension of the SIN-KIX flight.
