Thanks. Panic posting. But now am in Sydney so all good. Thanks again.

Sorry should have said Sue

Are you or anyone else still inCanberra and have club access? We might be here a while! Waiting for Sydney flight near Gate 12 in striped dress.

Hi - my partner has the joy of 6 hours in LAX today. Any ideas on what he could do? Arrives 5pm, has no lounge access.... Ladymavis AA73 LAX any please 2355 -1

All sorted!! Yay. Will have plenty of wine to drink upon my return. Called Monday morning and they re-credited my points immediately. (55 minutes on hold but did lots of filing). Were on site by lunch, and tickets booked for four of us on the AA flight to LAX on July 27. Now that the drama is...

Thanks everyone so much. Wine has been purchased, movie tickets purchased, and a restaurant booked for the future. Half the wine points have already come through. Now I just get to call and beg Qantas tomorrow to reinstate quickly after I have been so grumpy. but I don't need to go until the...

That is good to know when I am in the midst of up/down emotions. funnily enough it was some of my mother's actions that caused the chain of events which led to losing points... adding to the general stress of it all. Will be nicer to Qantas. Especially if I can get get a quicker-instatement. An...

Yes - i think a wine challenge is in order. Luckily I have friends who like wine! Then hopefully Qantas can act quickly to reinstate. In regards to Pushka's comments, there are tons of seats for late July/August, which was one reason I was surprised by their not coming to the party. Because I...

Hi - thanks for the comments. Yes, was very happy with Qantas giving me the challenge (a mix of responsibility for why they expired - too long to explain) - their way of acknowledging joint responsibility which was more mine than theirs. No problem earning the points - just the speed. So...

Advice welcomed as am so surprised by the poor business decision and appalling customer loyalty from Qantas. For complex reasons which they accepted/agreed my husband's 400,000 points expired six weeks ago. They gave us a reinstatement challenge which is quite simple - earn 2500 points with two...

And I would go via Hong Kong tomorrow.....but too much for her....a bit fragile in body and mind.

Thanks Matt appreciate advice v much. Out of ignorance, why wouldn't they release at this point....not likely to sell all and Monday is even emptier. Anyway sadly very cash poor, so will use points for economy and throw her in a back empty row and cross fingers.

Thanks! But my but my apologies ....I do not have a paid seat as brought her out one way on points and hoped to get a better seat back to LAX. But I have changed job, no status and nothing except economy showing. Was playing last minute game as flight so light...but have failed. Sigh.

Apologies for my Friday night Asahi/then red wine-fuelled post. Had to create new login due to inability to manoeuvre passwords. :( Just bored of my inability to use my Qantas points to upgrade my mother's flight on QF17 on Sunday to LAX. She has been v flexible, but now has ride from LAX to...

So true. Being originally from North Dakota, I know how hard it is to get a flight to South Dakota! :p
