Maybe since he booked with QF points they didn't realize it was an award.
It would book into the same fare class (presumably). It's more likely that they did it special for him...

DDFer's don't pay for LY F, though it shouldn't be too hard to get a couple pictures.

Been asking for people to SKML pics of J/F food for months.

Right, I'm not sure why nobody has been able to get a picture.

Re: Seeking: Savvy Miles & Points Enthusiast To Write For OMAAT

Anyone?

Well Dan is obvious but I doubt he is interested in writing for another person's blog.  I vote @high end hobo (and no I don't know him), he just seems to know the intricacies of these kinds of flight details that they are looking for someone to write about. Although 5-10 "substantive" weekly posts seems like a lot.  Maybe I'm wrong, but it doesn't seem like any of the other people on OMAAT besides Lucky contribute 5-10 posts a week, although maybe that's why he's seeking someone out.  ;D

Anyone able to pump out 5-10 substantive mileage posts every week should just start their own blog. That's a full time undertaking.

The real problem is that nobody on OMAAT actually knows how to write, perhaps with the exception of Tiffany. Hopefully whoever they get can actually write.

If they really only want mileage related posts and they want them all to be very substantive, there's no way anyone can crank out that many that often.

True, one a day is a full time endeavor.  I bet the average joe (or Yosef)  :) might make more money profit-sharing the revenue off of his site (if it truly is as generous as they claim) than trying to start their own, in this uber competitive space.

While Im blushing from the suggestion, I think I can a lot more money in that time using my skills to sell mileage tickets.

The question is, what 'substantive' in OMAAT lingo means.. judging by his other posts, not much.

A post about the long wait times on AC and the subsequent seat change request could meet their requirement...

Make the topic about Delta mileage devaluations and you can write at least 2 daily  :(
