G'day and good news. Long overdue on the Brisbane route and hopefully will go daily at some point. Qantas should also be doing SFO service, relieve some pressure from LA.
How much did you pay in miles on the O/W via Hong Kong? It is alot more expensive but I would prefer to fly CX, Wing and all!
Remember, with Biz and coach, you can do Air Tahiti Nui and Air Pacific. an idea</font>
LAX-SYD is about 7500 miles o/w. which would leave 5k miles to use on the two non-CX segments needed for a Zone 6 oneworld award. The Zone 6 is a bit more expensive than the All Airline QF award [which costs 75, 125, or 145k]. But notice in Business Class it's only 5,000 extra miles, as opposed to 25,000 extra in economy and 35,000 extra in First...
Distance Zone 6
Total Trip Miles = 14,001 - 20,000 Award Code
Economy Class OW100Y
Business Class OW130C
First Class OW180F
