I’ve beforehand written about how utilizing this third-party instrument has revolutionized how I discover the very best methods to redeem my factors and miles throughout airline applications in seconds. Nevertheless, I identified that the platform wasn’t good; most notably, it didn’t present outcomes from at the least one of many 5 Avios applications.
Fortunately, this has now modified with Seats.aero including Qatar Airways Privilege Membership to its search platform. Qatar Airways offers probably the most award availability to its personal Privilege Membership members when reserving Qsuite enterprise class and gives restricted companion airline availability.
Nevertheless, I’ve discovered that the Privilege Membership web site is clunky and may be irritating when trying to find a couple of date at a time.
Seats.aero now offers a simple option to see each redemption seat in enterprise class, together with these not supplied to companion applications. Right here is how.
