How can I search for the GOT-BKK Swiss fare ?
I haven't spotted a flyertalk post on it (maybe I missed it).

Thanks.
Limited dates for LX One-stop



887 GBP but with 2 stops on the outbound

Platinum Wing is still closed, but lounge access is printed on the boarding passes so doing OLCI would give time to fix any issues. I'm OWS and had no issues with bags or lounge earlier this week having booked this Business Light fare direct with AY. Crediting miles to QRPC is proving an issue however.

That's likely a local issue with Qatar's flakiness.

I believe this is a Finnair "I" fare. BA and Qatar, and (I'm guessing) most other most other OneWorlders give their FFP members 125% for longer-haul sectors on this AY fare.
While Finnair can fiddle about with whatever credit it gives its own FFP members, it's commitment to other airlines and members of their programmes is more difficult to change.

Heads up for those of you who are UK-based holders of Amex Gold/Platinum cards… some people are reporting an offer of £40 off when you spend £180 or more on Finnair flights The offer is only valid for flights from the UK and you must buy the flights by 15 November 2021 and have it charged to your card by that date too.

The price has now jumped up 100 pounds - Strange! Still good value in the bigger picture but would have been nice to lock it in at GBP1049

Big problem is BKK/SIN are selling out now that reopened. I would actually hold off for now due to crowds. Give the initial influx time to wane.

Do OW emerald get a free bag on Campaign light Finnair tickets? I checked online and it's not 100% clear. I thought I would get a 23kg bag to check-in but does it apply to all OW Emerald?

Yes, the fare rules don't override oneworld rules. The same thing applies to QR's cheap, no lounge business fares. Though in that case you would be directed to a different lounge.

***Extra baggage allowance for Emerald frequent flyers

As an Emerald frequent flyer, the following special checked baggage privileges will apply when you fly on oneworld airlines:
  • On itineraries using the baggage allowance “weight” system - 20 kgs in addition to the ticketed-cabin allowance.
  • On itineraries using the “piece system” - one additional bag for free in addition to your ticketed baggage allowance.
Note: This benefit is not available on British Airways' 'Hand Baggage Only/Basic' fares.

*In accordance with the individual policy of the oneworld airline operating the flight. **Priority baggage handling is not currently available on flights operated by British Airways.

Exceptions may apply.

Actually I was reading over the first couple of posts and someone mentioned it is indeed included!

Thanks for the above. I wasn't sure if on Qatar it was the same. The OW lounge isn't the best but I guess if Qatar starts doing 1K offers again, I'll suck it up
