London, huge Qantas reward release changes everything

A massive release of Qantas business class classic rewards yesterday is a game changer for those planning to head to UK & Europe in November 2022 - March 2023. We can only assume they have the guilts after announcing a bumper increase in revenue in a market update yesterday. Much to the benefit of frequent flyers, there are tickets on routes we have not seen in a very long time. There is significant business class capacity from Sydney, Melbourne and Perth to London. Unfortunately, there's no First class surfacing at the moment.

The same flights, as a points redemption, cost $1,276 and 289,200 points. The points are providing $10,275 ($11,551 - $1,276) worth of value or 3.6 cents per point.

There's availability from Perth as well; expect an update in Part three of the Perth series.
