Qantas Platinum One experiences?

[logicallysynced]

A bit of a side question - do you guys still have the Communication Options/Preferences in your QFF account where you would put your interests for leisure and/or sport activities.

I keep hearing about P1 event invites being (partially) linked to these preferences and I know I’ve seen them on my account before but they don’t seem to exist anymore. People still talk about having certain things selected in FB chats so I feel like I’m crazy that I can’t find it?

It was turned off some time back according to the VIP team, however I understand that something is coming to help them identify customers Interests. No idea when or what it involves.

The IRROPs genie worked for me yesterday. Had a cancelled flight and was immediately and magically put onto the next one while 50 people were queued at the service desk.

In contrast, another (Silver) traveller told me he’d have to wait 3 hrs for his replacement seat.

Thanks VIP team. It’s these services that make all the difference for frequent travellers.

Imagine what happens to CL members.

I've been in that position - cancelled flight. Two other passengers, at least one of which were CL - were put on the next flight (full) and 2 pax were offloaded to accommodate them.

I wasn't so lucky (a few hours delay), but it was better than those others in the line with a 10-12 hour delay.

Everyone is equal, but some people are more equal than others
