The aircraft was at the terminal. NO buses were used. Both aerobridges were operational and used. The Y bridge was used by Y pax and when the time came, J pax used the J bridge.

I recently flew on QR from DOH to BNE in J class. Arriving at the gate prior to boarding, I was directed to the Priority Boarding seating area. Come time to board a group of Y pax sitting at the rear of the aircraft were told to proceed onboard. Any J pax infiltrating the Ys were promptly...

If traveling using $$$rather than points, check out QR, they MAY provide a viable option. Early March, I am traveling back to BNE from JNB with QR via DOH. J fare, when I booked was between $500 and $1500 cheaper than QF in the week of travel. For me,travel time is not an issue particularly when...

Bring the Call Centers back home.

Done

YES......my bad.......had a senior moment.....please amend accordingly .

In June 2022, it was announced that WY would join OW early in 2024. As far as I can ascertain, there has been no public progress announcements on the deal. I recently contacted WY for an update, but they were unable (or unwilling) to provide any additional information. I am planning a trip to...
