There are many times more Qantas Frequent Flyer members with points to spend than there are reward seats available, which is one of the challenges with finding reward seats.

The best-value seats are snapped up quickly by those in the know. To try to make it seem like availability is better, Qantas rolled out Classic Plus rewards a few years ago.

These cost considerably more than Classic reward seats, but have greater availability. Those with more points might not mind spending several times more than usual just to get seats on popular flights.

Gyoza Flights can show both options if you prefer, but by default, we only show you the proper Classic reward seats.

Classic vs Classic Plus

We won’t go into too much detail, but here are the main points you should know.

• Classic Flight Rewards are based on a published table. That means they are fixed-price and have predictable pricing based on airline, cabin class and distance travelled. Qantas currently has five different reward seat tables. Fees and taxes are extra and can vary. These are usually the best ways to use your Qantas Points.

• Classic Plus Rewards are priced based on a comparable cash airfare, which is why the pricing range can be quite erratic. When fares go on sale, Classic Plus rates usually decrease, but still not enough to be better value than Classic. You get around 1c per point of value for Economy and 1.25c per point in premium cabins. Fees and taxes are still extra.

How to use Gyoza Flights to see Classic or Classic Plus

On our "Business and First Class" tab, you can toggle the "Dynamic Pricing" button in the upper-right corner to "Include" or "Exclude".

"Include" means you’ll see both Classic and Classic Plus, such as below (Classic Plus has the dark grey icon while Classic has the red icon).

Doing the same search on the Qantas website shows the same results. A few Classic Business Rewards from Melbourne to Jakarta are available on 3 Feb 2027 for 68,400 Qantas Points + $317. Some Classic Plus Rewards are available on 7 Feb 2027 for considerably more than triple the price in points.

If you don’t want to see Classic Plus in your Gyoza Flights search, simply turn ‘Dynamic Pricing’ to ‘Exclude’. Simple!
