Thank you for your input. May I confirm that as we are only in transit in Singapore, we will need to upload our "AU Covid-19 Digital Certificate" when we do the on-line check-in with Singapore Air? So wish they would make things more clearer.... Thanks again

Thank you for the info. We are on the way to Vietnam, so will only be in transit in Singapore. To confirm, it seems we will need to upload our "AU Covid-19 digital certificate" when we do the on-line check-in? Is that correct? Many thanks.

Thank you. Good news I think - seems boarding in Au is as it was before Covid. Just need to comply with destination requirments.

Can anyone assist with the current requirements to board a Singapore Airlines flight from an Australian airport. Have heard of passengers turned away not having the correct paper work? We are passing though Singapore Changi in transit. What is the current situation? Thx

We have just come back from Honolulu (a few days ago) and very grateful to get our feet on terrafirma safely. In a nutshell : STAY AWAY Our flight can best be summarised : VC002 Honolulu to Brisbane Sat 7th - Worst flight ever. Old plane, broken seats, broken arm rest, no music, no movies, no...

I know is a bit of a loaded question, but are there any rules about taking a tripod or monopod into the cabin? We are off to KL for a week and then a month in Vietnam, so will be on Malaysia and Vietnam airways. I guess it may be up to the security at the specific airport, and that being the...

Dear John - why do I have to wait 24-48 hrs for a return phone call? When I phone your Velocity Program to book an international flight, why do I have to leave details and then wait 24-48hrs for a return phone call? What happens if I am out when the phone call is eventually made? Do I want...

Dave This is exactly my point. The seats for the 7th have been there for the past 2 weeks. I have never seen the availabiity for the seats you mention on 17th Sept and on checking again this morning Sat 20th - they are not there. ???? That is why I think QFF is a bit of moving target. Thanks...

Thanks to all who have responded and offered help and suggestions. First of all there are 2 of us trying to fly, so probably that does not help. The flights mentioned above are there, (not all for 2 seats) but when you try to book them in one booking, some of them despair. (2 seats?)...

I am puzzled... If I try to book Sydney to Honolulu return (Sep 06) all I can get is Sydney to Hobolulu - ok Honolulu back to Sydney only avail via Los Angeles (lots of flights 17-23 Sep) so.... I think, let do a multi-trip: Sydney - Honolulua - 1 week okay Honolulu - Los Angeles -...

I have come to the conclusion it is all a farce, a rip and big deviousness from Qantas. They do not publish ALL the rules they play with. Its like playing chess, and they have a counter to every move you make. If there was a way to remove or reverse my points and close my QFF acct, I would...

Thanks John Lots to learn.

I was first looking for Brisbane to LA as well as Brisbane to Johannesburg. I do realize the earlier you book, the better. However, what got me, was that last night there were multiple seats to LA in the first week of April. By multiple, I mean there were 4-5 every day for the first week of...

The real frustration - perhaps being new to this, but I have had a gut full. I have heard all about the Qantas arrogance, complications and headaches about booking flights using frequent flyer points – and always took this with a pinch of salt. Now that I have tries to book 2 flights, I...

Tyring to book an international flight for the first time..... Wow...what a pain. Seems the momment you have 2 legs to a flight, Q automatically puts in a 1.5 leg to some obscure place that doubles your flight time. In one option, I can get there, but can't get back for 3 months. In...
