Hi Nicholas. What a great compliment. Thanks for watching and subscribing. I always think it's good for a "real" heads up before entering the unknown. Glad I was of help. Enjoy your stay in Oz !

i can only do my best! lol. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching as well as your complimentary comments. Much appreciated!

Hello. I have never heard this, and the Qantas staff never seem to know much about RTW flights, and have never really helped me with any of my questions. What dates are you looking at and where do you want to go What is the route that you have tried? Maybe I might have answers

@@Pointhacking1 Hello Sue, It seemed very odd to me and the customer service seemed to have very minimal understanding of the rules and kept coming back to say “it’s normal for the flights to go above your desired amount”. That would be wonderful, thank you! My flight paths that I’m looking at is Melbourne to Paris (Dec 28th 2024) Casablanca to New York (14th Jan) New York to Raleigh/Durham (15th Jan) Raleigh/Durham to Dallas/Ft.Worth (18th Jan) Dallas to Melbourne (25th Jan 2025)

@@allisonhudson8768 Hi Allison, I think your problem may be your dates. I can't be sure but I think the 28th Dec or maybe all of them are in a blackout time because of the season? I have checked that itinerary and yes it comes up as 167,600 points. which is fabulous at that time of year! Many people are pulling their hair out to get seats. And leaving it this late as well....you are in luck. I don't have any other answers, but if I was you I would definitely lock them in. That's assuming of course you have enough points in your account. I will keep checking on this as it interests me to the "why" and let you know if I find anything else

Hi Mark! I remember you! This was a fantastic flight. I’m so chuffed you are still watching! I am in New Zealand at the moment. Watch out for more! Take care, and happy travels!

@@Pointhacking1You take care Sue, great channel, thanks for the videos

Hey Margaret! No, both cards and programs are completely different. You can only use Qantas points to book flights with Qantas and you can only use Velocity points to book Virgin or their partner airline flights. Completely different identities. You cannot mix and match. It's probably best to stick with only one if you are trying to build up points

@@Pointhacking1 great thanks for the info Sue :)

this is a hard one, and I get asked all the time. unfortunately I haven't nailed this. Yes I agree that it is hard. You cannot lock in flights and add later as far as I know, but I believe you can do it for a fee when calling Qantas. Sorry I don't have the magic answer, but I don't give people false hope and am always up front. If I find a way, I will definitely be posting it!

Contact..so that I could explain in details

I don't have money to spend

@@Pointhacking1 can't we talk about this problem?

@@Pointhacking1 Because it is helpful for your channel to know

@@Pointhacking1 Whether you take the service or not is the next thing, it is not difficult to know about the problems,is it?

Specific Errors? I would like to know what they are. And if it’s the fault of TH-cam? I’m sure this is all costly to me

Thank You, I am so glad that you have found my channel. I am curious to what led you here? But have fun because I enjoy my flying experienced immensely!

Thanks for watching. I loved this place!

Thank You! This was mid May 2023

In premium Economy with JAL you with get dedicated check on, one of the biggest Prem Econ seats in the sky as well as lounge Access before your flight, so don't forget to turn up early and make the most of it all!

@@Pointhacking1 thank you. Is the lounge free for premium economy? Because i didnt select it when we bought our tickets.

My pleasure! Thanks for Watching

Hi, I would be happy to. I am slowly moving into Velocity Hacks. Which Qantas video were you referring to? I will have a look I have just booked flights next year…. Oh! This year! With Velocity. Very happy

@@Pointhacking1 , earlier you discussed how to use qantas interactive map and booking techniques which were very helpful.... would like to discuss variety of ways to gather points...i am studying velocity and seems better now. The main reason being , their points don't expire for 36 months

I'm so sorry, I have just seen this comment! Points will never expire with Qantas or velocity as long as the account is active.

Hello, This was booked mid 2022 through Qantas Hotels. It was the superior room. Only 4 of these rooms in the Hotel. it cost AU$1,323 for 4 nights. Thurs, Fri, Sat , Sun

I believe this card will only default to the currencies you have changed your money to. Otherwise you will pay big fees to exchange it at the time. This review is quite old, but we never take these off TH-cam. I now suggest using the "Wise" card. It is much cheaper and so many more currencies available and also in real time. Meaning you can send money in a second. I know this probably doesn't help you now, but I have never heard of a default currency on the Qantas Card. Default would be AU Dollar if you haven't sent your dollars to a certain currency, then it will automatically use the currency of the country you are in. And I hope THAT makes sense!

Yes, it is no problem transferring money back to your account. I have just done this with 4 currencies

Hello, I am not quite sure what you are saying. Where do you see 816? All of Qatar Airways new Airbus A350-1000 and numerous A350-900s offer QSuites in Business Class. Many Boeing 777-300ER and 777-200LR of Qatar Airways are meanwhile also equipped with Qsuites. www.premium-flights.com/all-qatar-airways-qsuite-routes/#:~:text=2.-,How%20to%20check%20if%20a%20Qatar%20Airways%20flight%20offers%20the,meanwhile%20also%20equipped%20with%20Qsuites.

Oh you are right! Thank You for picking that up. My mistake. I had a world flight with many aircrafts. I have now edited the mistake.

Great Work!

😊 thank you. We all make mistakes and I have no problem admitting them. After all I am self taught with this stuff. But always happy to help people what I experience every year. I appreciate your kind feedback

I’m so glad I made that more transparent for you. I always like to have some idea what I am getting into before I pay! One of the reasons for creating this review. Thanks so much for your comment

I’m glad this has helped you. I know this is hard! Try this calculator

@@Pointhacking1 thank you !!! That's going to save time, greatly appreciated.

???? I never went to Chicago or Doha?

@@Pointhacking1 But you select chicago and doha in the video in your flight bookings? This is a bit odd.

@@leasmith2997 OK, sorry I had to play that back again as it was a long time ago I did this Video. I thought you meant MY actual RTW ticket that I had put on line. It’s the Economic ticket when showing how to do it. And I see….. many people have asked me this, even with my ticket I put up (which I have just returned home from) Because i chose to fly with Qatar, the flight will have to go via the airline’s hub, and that is Doha, so I believe this does not affect the RTF rules. My recent flight (if you have a look) was the same as I returned to Tokyo. But you will see the points are correct amount at the end! I hope that makes sense

I'm glad this helped you. love seeing people get these!🤗

Thanks for watching and for letting me know it helped!🤓

You just write them down and start from the beginning!

@@Pointhacking1 Thanks for your prompt reply Sue. That’s awesome 👍🏻

@@craigcoffey7773 No problem, just message when you want to know anything. If you happen to be in Sydney, I have live classes, one on one. It seems Reward flights are getting harder to get, although with enough time, I have always managed to find them.

👌@@Pointhacking1 Thanks for the offer Sue. I live on the GC but have family in North Sydney so I will reach out when i'm next down.

@@craigcoffey7773 oh! And I was not long ago on the GC! I will note you down!

Oh! Where does it say this?

@@Pointhacking1 For about half of them it says coming soon on the activity bar.

I’m sorry, I have no idea why it says that? Is your App up to date?

It should be version 3.26.4

@@Pointhacking1 Yes it is, maybe because i am in trial version?
