New reply. Now I have 2 choices in November....AND on the flights I require, I just need to pay $1509 + taxes for the priviledge.
Forget it, Qmiles, Airmiles whatever are a marketing ploy with no way of redemption.
From now on Man-Mnl is a choice of cost not the "superb service" of Qatar.
Superb , I mean great but for the price, maybe a chance of SOME redemption. I can get return Y flights for $900, so where is the extra from? Maybe difference from Y to J class and as a Qmiles holder, I pay to use them.
Oh well.
