So the Qantas elite status bonus only applies when the ticket is issued by Qantas?
... And do you need Qantas elite status to book with a Qantas Business Rewards Amex? Also, no elite status, just an "ABN" is required to be eligible to join Qantas Business rewards. * *ABN: Australian Business Number |

*ABN: Australian Business Number If not, could result in more profitable wandering. Fred |
No, it doesn’t. And therefore if anyone in my family doesn’t travel with an ABN in, I encourage them to use mine!

If not, could result in more profitable wandering. Fred Whatever the base earn is, if the entire fare is paid with a linked QBR Amex, that base earn is tripled. With that, the minimum bonus earned for that 7800 point earning flight is 1560. |
Base Currency for ONE fares
Are the fares filed in one specific currency, fx USD or Euro and then converted to pos currency or filed by different regions?

I encountered two very strange issues after points change. First, after I changed my ticket with Qantas, the booking reference remained the same but the ticket number changed. Because the booking reference didn’t change, the FFP number I had entered before the rebooking still appeared in the booking management. However, on the boarding passes for several flights that followed, the FFP number was missing. After reissuing, I flew two CX segments, but I initially didn't notice the absence of the FFP number on the boarding passes. It was only after flying a few domestic flights within Malaysia, where MH printed the FFP number below the name on the boarding passes, that I realized this issue. When I received my boarding passes for the remaining DONE3 segment by MH, I noticed that the FFP number was missing after the rebooking. This is likely to affect my mileage accrual, although I'm not certain yet. I had assumed that mileage accrual from CX to AA would take some time, but I only recently discovered the missing FFP number and have since submitted a request for missing miles to American Airlines. I'm currently waiting for their response. Second, I booked a DONE3 ticket, and the booking details showed KUL-PVG as booked in D class. However, the boarding pass showed J class. Since there wasn't much time before boarding when I checked in, I couldn't ask the counter staff why this discrepancy occurred. But I'm curious why the boarding pass class didn't match the booking class.

Also don't worry about your boarding pass showing J vs D. A lot of airlines print F, J, and Y as a generic designation of First, Business, and Economy, but doesn't affect your underlying booking class on your ticket. |
Hi,
this is about cancellation. I still have about 9 segments to go, KUL-NRT 11SEP HND-GMP 19SEP ICN-KUL 22SEP US segments in Dec I would still want to fly the Asia segments, but cancel the US segment. can I cancel the US segments now, before taking the Asia segments? I am traveling now, I am afraid if I call QF on roaming, it will be hefty bill, as it normally takes more than 30 minutes |

Why do you want to “cancel” just some segments? (This isn’t allowed since it would turn it into a multi-segment trip and not a RTW and you’re usually just better no-showing) |

We’ll need more info to help you.

(This isn’t allowed since it would turn it into a multi-segment trip and not a RTW and you’re usually just better no-showing) My issue was, the ICN-KUL got cancelled because of MH trimming some routes. And my US segments are not as intended, earlier was just to put up a working routine, then optimize later, unfortunately, QF put up lots of restriction thus I have to stick to this routing. When the above 2 combine, I am thinking to start a new RTW ex-TYO, then I can combine with this RTW from NRT and cancel the rest. But, I am afraid I can't get the new RTW effective if I only start to buy it after I done KUL-NRT in first RTW |

Section 16: Voluntary changes / rerouting / penalties Part (b): Cancellations and Refunds Paragraph 3: For partially used transportation the refund if any will be the difference between the fare paid and the fare for the transportation used less the fee specified in (1) above. The reference to (1) specifies that there is a penalty of 10% for L or 5% for D and A |
A surface segment counts as one of the 16 allowed but does NOT count in any particular continental zone.
Otherwise my 6 ticketed NA segments plus a surface segment would have made my ticket invalid. Keep wandering Fred |
