Oneworld Award Space Bonanza – Four Business Class Seats Per Flight

Matthew Klint Posted onMarch 15, 2021March 15, 2021 6 Comments

Two of my favorite oneworld carriers have released a glut of award space for travel in early 2022 – many flights have four award seats. If you have the points, now is a great time to book travel for next year.

Qatar Airways Business Class – Up To Four Business Class Award Seats

Let’s start with Qatar Airways, which offers a cutting-edge business class product called Qsuite on many of its aircraft.

Qatar Airways serves the following U.S. cities:

  • Atlanta (ATL)
  • Boston (BOS)
  • Chicago (ORD)
  • Dallas (DFW)
  • Houston (IAH)
  • Los Angeles (LAX)
  • Miami (MIA)
  • New York (JFK)
  • Philadelphia (PHL)
  • San Francisco (SFO)
  • Seattle (SEA)
  • Washington (IAD)

Not only is its business class suite top-notch (with closing door and special accommodations for families traveling together), but the soft product is also excellent.

American Airlines and Qatar’s own privilege program offer the best redemption options. Receptions to Africa are particularly attractive at 75K AAdvantage miles one-way for what amounts to two longhaul flights via Doha.

This space can be booked on aa.com and you can also hold the space for five days, even if you do not have sufficient miles in your account. Space is available (up to four seats per flight) in early 2022.

You can read my Qsuite review here.

Cathay Pacific Business Class – Up To Four Business Class Award Seats

Cathay Pacific offers another well-rounded business class with reverse herringbone seats on longhaul flights and above average service, food, and beverage.

Via its Hong Kong hub, Cathay Pacific also offers a gateway to Asia.

Cathay Pacific serves the following five U.S. cities:

  • Boston (BOS)
  • Chicago (ORD)
  • Los Angeles (LAX)
  • New York (JFK)
  • San Francisco (SFO)

Award space to Asia is best booked via American Airlines or directly with Cathay Pacific’s AsiaMiles programs. Right now, up to four business class award seats per flight (and up to one first class seat) are available on many dates in early 2022.

This space can be booked on aa.com and you can also hold the space for five days, even if you do not have sufficient miles in your account.

CONCLUSION

If you are able, now is a GREAT time to use miles to book travel for 2022, even beyond these two particularly valuable award space dumps. Remember that if you book with American Airlines there are no longer fees for cancellation and re-deposit, so book away…

    You write “Cathay pacific serves the four following US cities”: then you list 6 cities, one of which, Philadelphia, it doesn’t fly to. So- how many us cities and which ones does Cathay Pacific fly to? Doing just a bit of editing prior to publication would only help your accuracy and credibility.

    At moment on their website shows flying only to Jfk, Lax and Sfo in early 2022, others to be resumed hopefully.

    Thanks for sharing. Found some dates in January that would work for my family to fly to South Africa, however the travel time is just outrageous. I’m going to stick with some KLM flights I found using Delta miles instead. Not the same as Q suites by any means (and 150k AA miles vs 230k DL miles pp), but 22 hours on KLM vs. 33 hours on Qatar in each direction was the deciding factor.

    Maybe we’ll get a schedule change and can switch to the new CPT-ATL flight on the way back. One can dream, right?

@malaysiaairlines just announced it would retire i @malaysiaairlines just announced it would retire its A380 fleet. While not surprising, it is sad to see the growing list of carriers retiring this superjumbo jet. On Malaysia Airlines, I flew the #A380 once from Kuala Lumpur (KUL) to London (LHR) and had the entire first class cabin to myself (full review on the blog). It was a beautiful flight that I will always remember.

While I’ve enjoyed catching up on others over the years, now it is time for me to return to Instagram. In this first post, I highlight two joys in my life, my two children, whom I trust will grow up to be prolific travelers that circumnavigate the globe as ambassadors of love and respect.
