    All AU Diners Club personal cards will be cancelled in January 2024

    I’m so disappointed…I’ve been using Diners for more than 10 years, mainly for the lounge access. It was the BEST value. Are they ditching all Diners Club access to lounges or just the one linked to Qantas? Now retired, it is almost impossible to get a credit card with lounge access. Can I...

    AirAsia launches flights to Bangkok from Sydney & Melbourne

    Sadly it looks like AVV is a Covid casualty. AVV was really cranking up with Bail and Vietnam direct flights as well as AirAsia. Now, nothing.

    Seats on Redemption Flights

    I’ve noticed while booking redemption flights , bring able to pick a seat is no longer available on Jetstar flights? Is it me missing something or another change (charge?). Flying recently an extra $10 asked for after being allocated a centre seat. On a three hour flight , I paid.

    Order a Qantas "care pack" for $25

    And that is probably one reason they are selling off the packs due to the use by date. My local winery has been selling 187ml bottles of airline wine because of the use by date....$1 a bottle...great deal.

    I used to have a corporate DC when I discovered the lounges. I now have my own and can’t fault it. not being tied to one airline is a bonus, I used so many lounges in many countries inc AU. they can vary in quality . Plus I use DC at Qantas, Hotels.com, Woolies, Coles, Bunnings Kmart etc. no tap...

    Any downsides on the Diner's Club Lounge access?

    Better late then never to reply. I love my Diners Club Card for access to lounges. I've been using it for about 12 years. I ditched QC about 10 years ago realizing this is the only card I need and being able to use any airline. Plenty of choice, some good, some very good (Venice, Majorca ...

    Full Body Scans And More Coming To Domestic Terminals

    Sorry, am I missing something here, what about showing ID when boarding? I seem to do it at every other airport outside of AU when flying internally. AU must be the easiest country to travel in without ID.

    What is the attraction of lounges?

    I didn't renew my QC a few years back as I didn't think I was getting value out of it. As much as I loved the lounges, I got a Diners Club card instead which gives me plenty of lounges when travelling overseas and no airline loyalty. I miss out in AU but there are plenty of nice lounges...

    QC entry on Jetstar flight

    I am a Silver QC flying to DPS on JQ. With all the changes to lounge access, can I take guest(or 2) into the international lounge. My reading is that you can't take anyone in, but I have read things incorrectly in the past. Also having never flown on a Deamliner, do all seats have a USB slot...
