But if you're planning to visit multiple countries or continents on the same trip, there are some great value round-the-world airfares offered by specific airlines. These not only offer great flexibility, but are often also cheaper than just booking a point-to-point Qantas flight to North America or Europe. In this episode, Matt is joined by travel agent and regular podcast guest Alan Lam to talk about how you can take advantage of these special RTW airfare deals.   Episode contents: 1:15 - Fortnightly news round-up 11:54 - Interview with Alan Lam 39:13 - Feedback from last episode   Links: AFF on Air Discussion thread - a dedicated AFF thread to discuss the podcast and ask questions Great Value Round-the-World Tickets with Finnair & Lufthansa   Frequent Flyer Gazette articles referenced in the fortnightly news round-up: Major Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer Award Devaluation (2022) Qantas Flights to Rome Selling Extremely Well Virgin Australia’s Flights to Bali Selling Fast United Airlines Will Fly to Brisbane Qantas Opens New Call Centre in Manila Qantas Trials New Self-Service Kiosks Rex Filling Business Class with Free Upgrades Earn Status Credits on Velocity Reward Flights Qantas Flexible Classic Rewards Extended to September 2022 Qantas Unlocks Exit Row Seats on Long-Haul Flights Comair (Kulula & British Airways in South Africa) in Liquidation Last Chance to Redeem Velocity Points for Delta Flights
