Should I

2. use them to upgrade on a couple of AUS to Europe/Asia flights that are coming up (bearing in mind QF upgrades are never confirmed unlike with, say, UA) or,
3. do you think there is no hurry and I can save them for when I really need them?

Thanks.
Now kangela, you know the obvious suggestion as to what to do with your points...transfer them to me immediately.

Failing that, I'd be inclined to use them. If you have nothing planned immediately that you can use them on, then no sweat, but look at planning to use them. I say this not because of any fear of program 'enhancements' (and you should get reasonable notice of that) but simply because I think, like a good red, they're to be used rather than hoarded for too long. And (as I'm sure you will) use them wisely, like on international J or F.
