Talking QF WP's Mileage Run

Now I have been going through withdrawal symptoms...work has kept me in BNE for 3 months (last flight was 19 January!), now my self-diagnosis is that I need to do a MR (to help along the re-qual to WP status again).Thankfully, after being a very very good boy, Mrs QF WP has allowed me a day or two at my leisure.

So after about 3 hours research on Friday PM, now to organise my MR - hoping they are still there now after Easter away on Gold Coast, looking at:

BNE/SYD/CBR/SYD/MEL/SYD/PER (Saturday, 1 May)
PER/SYD/BNE (Sunday May 2, I'll be stuffed, so less flights!)

Flights that I found look like:

BNE/SYD QF501 Dep 0700 Arr 0730 10 SC's
SYD/CBR QF787 Dep 0810 Arr 0905 $181 (SuperSaver BNE/CBR) 10 SC's
CBR/SYD QF704 Dep 0940 Arr 1025 $ 89 (Red E) 10 SC's
SYD/MEL QF427 Dep 1100 Arr 1230 $118 (SS) 10 SC's
MEL/SYD QF438 Dep 1400 Arr 1520 $79 (Red E) 10 SC's
SYD/MEL QF447 Dep 1600 Arr 1730 $97 (Red E) 10 SC's
MEL/PER QF481 Dep 1835 Arr 2035 $169 (Red E) 20 SC's
PER/SYD QF518 Dep 0015 Arr 0620 20 SC's
SYD/BNE QF504 Dep 0705 Arr 0830 $238 (SuperSaver PER/BNE) 10 SC's

At present, $971 for 110 SC's...or $8.82 per SC. Poor comparably to others, but no too shabby for me (my first MR and done when there aren't too many sales around!). Of course, any hints would be gratefully appreciated.

I'll post my actual itinerary and then trip reports as I fly them...
