Just showing that there was a reward flight available yet I can't book it (was 2 earlier on that date). Same for any other day.


Ok, say I want to fly from Hong Kong to Sydney.
Looking at redemption options, there are:
Loads of CX Business class flights (747,777,A330 etc) that either go direct, stop in Singapore and change to Qantas or remain CX, or Qantas business class (QF0030 seems te most common one) to Melbourne then another flight to Sydney.
Timing wise, CX flies at 9 in the morning getting to SYD for 21:45pm or late night flights getting in mid-morning / lunchtime.

Any ideal times to leave Hong Kong?
The 9am flight would mean I would get to Sydney late at night, go to my hotel to slwwp and start fresh early in the morning.
The others would mean I could drop things off at a hotel and start exploring straightaway.
