啊？？？空中冥币的QFF，除了TAX之外，现在多了一个这个CHARGE？？？那还玩个屁？
不过，是不是换伙伴航空 ...
这里有些tips：
One way is to fly on a Qantas partner airline that does not pass on fuel surcharges. When flying to North America, Qantas Frequent Flyer members can fly on American Airlines or Fiji Airways for exactly the same number of points as a Qantas flight. American Airlines flies daily from Sydney and Auckland to Los Angeles, and Fiji Airways operates to Los Angeles and San Francisco via its Nadi hub. When flying with either airline, the fees & taxes are generally under $200 for a round-trip award booking.
Qantas’ oneworld partners Japan Airlines and Cathay Pacific also charge low fuel surcharges.
AA and CX generally have low taxes on awards so check out MEL-HKG-YVR on CX or… if you can find SYD-LAX-YVR on AA the taxes will be next to nothing so then tack on a MEL-SYD sector.
However, the points required for an award booking on Japan Airlines or Cathay Pacific are higher than an equivalent Qantas booking. The travel times to North America are also longer because you’ll be flying via Asia.
Also note the points costs which might offset any tax savings. These are one way economy.
QF MEL-SYD-YVR is 45,000 points
QF/AA MEL-SYD-LAX-YVR is 55,000 points
CX or JL via HKG/NRT is 75,000 points
Booking award flights originating overseas can also impact the amount of fuel surcharges. For example, Qantas awards originating in the United States have very high carrier charges. But Qantas surcharges on award bookings originating in New Zealand may be lower. It’s also worth noting that any award booking originating in Hong Kong, the Philippines or Brazil will have low or no fuel surcharges due to local government regulations. |
