I am interested that people have been able to book BA Concord.
At the bottom of the Qantas OneWorld table on page 66 of 'Making the most of your membership' benefits guidebook, it states 'Not valid on BA Concord Services'
Has something changed?

glad to see my spirit of flying the concorde was not lost 
thanks for all the great info
at any rate, i have my stupid question of the day:
can you use the *wood points to convert to qantas to get the bonus and then use 100,000 points to fly North America to australia in business class on cathay?

"I am. 30 subs= 75,000 points. + current Starwood balance= 2 free First tickets Toronto-NYC-LHR-ROME and back. Combined with 5 free nights @ the ST.Regis Grande and a free weekend @ the Daneilli in Venice, my holiday (which retails for over $30,000.00) is going to be mine for $1,800 + some points. Marc"
Are you interpreting the Chart [QF/AA/BA] as meaning you can fly one or more of these three carriers on a single award? That appears to be the case from your intinerary, since YYZ-NYC [LGA] would be on AA, the balance BA. I am not sure if this is actually the case. You could fly BA ex-JFK through LHR onward into Europe as you are planning, of course, since this is within the 10K alloted. Too bad BA is no longer flying YYZ-JFK with their BIR service, you could at least do the hop into JFK on BA.

I am interpreting the chart to read any travel on AA/BA/QF flights. I could be wrong in which case I will start in YYZ on 747 and end in JFK on Concorde, Fly the JFK-Buffalo on Jet blue for $44,

Just called Qantas.
The AA/BA/QF awards may use up to three carriers aslong as you are withiin the mile restrictions of the fare! A biz class ticket is first class on a two class, but you MUST book first for BA1 and BA2

You can get an award that uses more than one carrier, but it'll cost more points. The 125,000 points for 10,000 miles of 1st class flying is only good for 1 carrier.

Setjet,

Thanks very much!
