I have a family member who is a tenured Qantas employee who’s offered to add me to their staff travel.
I’ve heard that the way it works is that you’ll be on standby when you get to the airport so the flight isn’t guaranteed. The tip being never book the last flight of the day.
Just wondering peoples general staff travel experiences as a non-Qantas employee? I won’t be able to book anything myself and will have to rely on that person to check flight capacity etc. It will be cheaper though.
Is this worth doing or is the risk of being stuck at the airport and flights being booked out due to being on standby an issue?
