    Pets in the Cabin - Coming soon on Virgin Australia

    Qantas Call Centre Long Wait Times

    I used click to call, which took 35 minutes to be answered by a rather blunt South African agent. I want to cancel a booking that had an involuntary schedule change. The email says: No where in manage my booking or the Qantas app does it give me any new options, so I called. The agent told me...

    Double Status Credits promotion (Book by 27/2/24, travel 28/2/24-14/2/25)

    If I cancel only do you think the refund would go through or should I talk to someone? The QF contact centre is busy, currently at 40 minutes wait and counting. Tried earlier and stopped after 30 minutes. 1709025767 I believe the only way to change routing is talk to an agent.

    Double Status Credits promotion (Book by 27/2/24, travel 28/2/24-14/2/25)

    I have a booking SYD <> BNE return which had a schedule change of 15 minutes and was automatically reticketed. I want to use this change as an opportunity to cancel it and rebook under double sc (also at a slightly different time as the flight leaves earlier than I want). Nowhere in manage my...

    "Nobody, including children, should sleep on the floor"

    My memory might be deceiving me, but I think VA made the same announcement on their 777 long haul flights?

    Lets talk about the 787 windows

    I don’t mind if they change the darkness to “suggest” where they should be but the locking more often than not is frustrating. Especially that the windows have a “dim” feature maybe I want it a shade brighter so I can see out but minimise disturbance. I left off my first post the window issue...

    Lets talk about the 787 windows

    Oh wow, maybe its only on the North America routes? I’ve only ever flown 787 to various NA destinations. But I have done this “many” times, maybe Ive just been unlucky?

    Lets talk about the 787 windows

    I’ve had a problem with 787 windows for a while but after not having flown this aircraft for a bit then flying it again, made me realise both the issues with it and specifically how Qantas handles it. The window lock, every single QF 787 fight I’ve been on the flight crew either lock the window...

    QF Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    I haven’t flown long haul Y in 10 years, so I can’t really say 😂 But I did find PE even middle middle seat pretty comfortable. PE is what Y “should” be. If you are under 6ft I find it comfortable. A family member is over 6ft and said they can’t make the leg rest work for them. Previously I’ve...

    QF Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    Had exactly this happen to me on QF2. Went from bulkhead window seat in Y to middle seat middle row of PE and was considering trying to be downgraded back. They had actually filled Y too by then so there was no where to go. Despite that I actually had a somewhat comfortable flight.

    Does anyone have any idea what QF780 is doing tonight?

    Captain: “We will be touching down in BNE shortly, I hope you enjoyed your flight”. FO: Aren’t we going to MEL? Captain: Oh Sh**

    QF Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    To update, my +1 received upgrade from PE to J at the gate. No notification or anything prior. The gate staff didn’t even say anything. They scanned the BP it had an error “seating error” they picked up an already printed boarding pass scanned it and handed it over without saying anything. The...

    QF Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    Oh really? I believed if you did “upgrade a family member” they are assessed at your level. Not sure where I got that from but is that not the case?

    QF Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    QF Platinum here, myself and a no status family member are traveling on QF75 tomorrow on seperate bookings. I requested upgrade from premium economy to business for both of us via my account at almost exactly the same time from my account. I received an upgrade at T-72, however my +1 still now...
