    Qantas extends status extensions until end June 2023 (previously December 2022)

    Just checked my app again and I'm back to Plat. I did DM them on twitter and facebook, but perhaps the database admin has rolled out of bed and fixed it for all.

    Closed as in they direct you to the biz lounge? Or no domestic lounge open?

    Qantas extends status extensions until end June 2023 (previously December 2022)

    What are my odds turning up to the domestic biz lounge this arvo in Melbourne to plead my case? Was very much looking forward to annoying all the business travelers with my kids. :) :)

    Called 3 times this morning. Get thru the IVR, it dials then get disconnected each time. Love it.

    Qantas extends status extensions until end June 2023 (previously December 2022)

    I'd say so. I'm flying this evening, Met the requirements two fold actually - booked a flight in January for tonight (which Qantas cancelled both legs of, which is sufficient in itself for the requirements according to their wording) then rebooked (again booking made in Jan) with different...

    Has Qantas A380 Melb to LAX got WIFI?

    I believe both UA and AA have it now. I'd love it on Qantas, particularly on QF93 - effectively a day flight even though they try and convince you it's not :lol:

    AA to fly LAX/SYD; Qantas returns to SFO/SYD

    Definitely good news for SYD folks. Not sure that it's hugely easier/better for MEL folks wanting to go to SFO though. Dare I say LAX isn't even that bad any more with the new terminal and expedited customs options. I'm quite partial to the Air NZ 777 option MEL - AKL - SFO these days as well.

    Confused over infants and QFF Classic Rewards

    Good luck with the trip. Under 6 months is a great time window to travel with an infant. After that it starts to get more interesting as they become more demanding!

    10,000 QFF points needed in next 4-5 months

    From the Things you should know fine print: "In order to be eligible customers must have been charged the standard annual fee. " This suggests you are not eligible for the 60k if your annual fee is waived?

    Double Qantas Points on NAB/AMEX

    Looks like the old Platinum card has been rebranded as Premium. So, who knows....worth a shot.

    Travelling with an infant under 2, but with own seat

    I second this. I have a 1 y/o boy, we collectively did 18 or so flights in the last 6 months (yes we are nuts). The most recent flights he was testing the limits of the bassinet. For your sanity get the little fella his own seat. Tis a shame it's so expensive though. I don't know if anyone other...

    Aquire 10K bonus for using a new partner and double flight points

    It's pretty obvious now the disabled transfer is due to folks (including me) getting the bonus 10k erroneously posted twice. Just got this on my statement: POINTS CORRECTION DUE TO SYSTEM ERROR -10,000 Damn, wish I was faster on the transfer. :rolleyes:

    LTS [Life time Silver]

    Yep it's 0 free bags for anything ticketed recently. Done plenty of AA flying since April 8th, no joy. You might get lucky if you complain / act surprised (e.g. via a sympathetic staff member).
