Qatar Airways Business Class Award Availability
Earlier this week, Qatar Airways released a bunch of business class award availability! A big shoutout to @findflightsforme for flagging this.
Most of the award availability is for two people and for travel in 2024. Youβll find the most award availability in October and September 2024.
For travel from the U.S. to Doha, you can book using:
- 70,000 American Airline Miles, British Airways, or Qatar Avios
- 70,000 JetBlue TrueBlue (or less, Iβll explain that in the next section)
You can also add a connection to other Qatar Airways destinations, such as the Maldives, for an additional 10k-20k points.
Below are some resources and tutorials on how to search and book your flights.

Qatar Airways flights are bookable using JetBlue TrueBlue points
You now have the option to book Qatar Airways flights using JetBlue TrueBlue points!
JetBlue charges 70,000 JetBlue TrueBlue points for a one-way flight between the U.S. and Doha in Qatar Airways Business Class. This rate is the same as what British Airways and Qatar Avios charge. It may not seem very exciting, but it becomes more enticing when there's a JetBlue transfer bonus.
From now until November 30th, you can transfer Chase points to JetBlue TrueBlue with a 25% bonus. This means you only need to transfer 56,000 Chase points to JetBlue to book the Qatar Airways Business Class flight!
Black Friday Deal Round-Up
β4 Round-Trip Flights for $1525β
βThis exciting promotion offers a one-year round-trip between LAX or SEA to New Zealand, Tahiti, Paris, AND Tokyo for just $1525. Only 250 passes will be available, and they will be released on November 25th at 9am PST.
βHyatt - Double Points and 20% Off
βHyatt Hotels currently offers double points for eligible stays in North America, Central America, South America, and the Caribbean. Additionally, for stays in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia Pacific, and Southwest Asia, you can save up to 20% off your stay.
β20% Away Luggage
βAll Away luggage is currently on sale at a 20% discount. We have been using the Medium Aluminum Checked bag for our recent trips, and we are impressed with its durability. It is a bit heavy due to its full aluminum construction, but we still love it.
βREI 20% Off Sale
βREI members can save 20% on full-priced items until November 20th. My favorite backpack, typically price-controlled and never on sale, is currently discounted by 20%!
Fly Frontier Airlines With No Fees!
Would you fly Frontier Airlines if there were no fees?
I polled my Instagram followers, and 54% said yes!
Well, it's possible through a status match. And you might already have status that you can match over from a credit card you already have!
Frontier Airlines offers a status match from 15 airlines, 15 hotels, and 15 cruise lines. You may already have some of the 45+ supported programs that allow you to status match with Frontier:
- American Express Platinum gets you Hilton Gold Status for free, which matches to Frontier 50k
- Marriott Cards with Silver or Platinum Status matches to Frontier 50k
- Southwest Companion Pass matches to Frontier 100K
- See all available status matches hereβ
This status match eliminates carry-on and seat assignment fees, making Elite 50K status particularly valuable with free carry-on and complimentary seat assignment and free Stretch seating when booking.
In 2024, Frontier will change their Elite 50K to Elite Platinum, offering additional benefits such as free carry-ons and checked bags for your entire group.
There is a $99 fee to match to 20K and 50K status and $149 to match to 150K status, but with how much you'll be saving on those pesky fees from Frontier flights, it might be worth it. What do you think?
