SYD-PRG Options?
Hi all, I’m looking for some advice on the best QF points/sc earning and comfort option for a trip SYD-PRG. It will be in early July and I will be spending a max of 4 nights in Prague. Air budget is about A$4500 which I figure would be best spent on BA WT+ via LHR. Any suggestions on alternative options would be appreciated. Thanks

With the mastercard promo WT+ to LHR is A$3885 return inclusive of taxes. Given the number of LCCs you should be able to get from London to Prague fairly cheaply - just make sure have plenty of time for connections/delays.

Another option is combining tickets - for instance, taking advantage of the Mastercard promo linked to by Kiwi Flyer from SYD to BKK in WT+ (AU$1350 inc tax) and then booking AY from BKK-PRG in Business class (89140 baht inc tax - about AU$3000). That gets you in on budget and certainly clocks up the SC's as well.
