Nevertheless, I identified that the platform wasn’t excellent; 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 supplies essentially the most award availability to its personal Privilege Membership members when reserving Qsuite enterprise class and gives restricted accomplice airline availability.
Nevertheless, I’ve discovered that the Privilege Membership web site is clunky and will be irritating when trying to find a couple of date at a time.
Seats.aero now supplies a straightforward strategy to see each redemption seat in enterprise class, together with these not provided to accomplice applications. Right here is how.
