I find it trifling strange and no less troublesome that it appears quite a few airlines have interline agreements with Jetstar but Qantas does not. Am I wrong or have I missed something in my previous travels?

Yes, same here. I’ve emailed Accor but no respone as yet (36+ houtrs).

My itinerary was relatively straightforward involving QF, QR, JL and AA. All within the rules and available and confirmed online. I’m trying all sorts of combos but without success. I’ll continue to try. You are right about the status (envy), Unfortunately my Platinum days are long gone and my...

Thanks for your helpful response. I will try and contact Qantas about the “agent issue” in time. My priority is trying to get the flights and I will have a bash later this evening at seeing if there are any alternatives but will need to get on with my day till then. My wife is not in the best of...

I am sorry Qantas but I have just experienced the real nadir of service. Needed to book a OneWorld Classic Flight Reward which cannot be done online (all the flights are there; the cost – points and $s – are all correct, but when it tries to go to the payment page it gives an error message. At...

That’s a valuable four cents. Really helpful suggestions. I’ll explore tonight and see what’s possible. One of our trips to Canada was direct to YOW ( via LAX and ORD) but generally I have found YOW OW flight availability a bit limite and this time I didn’t consider it — but I will now. In...

Thank you so much for your efforts. What you have researched looks as though it will work well. I really appreciate all your suggestions. I am keen on one J and one Y as I am small and have never seen the added value of J (either $s or points) unless of course my employer paid for it! I am OW...

Thanks for your time and suggestions. I have tried YUL-JFK-LAX-SYD, YUL-ORD-LAX-MEL, YUL-DFW-SYD etc all which can all be done OW. Unfortunately these tries each take about ten minutes to explore and all failed either from a lack of award flights or the dreaded “i” indicating one of the...

I apologise if this is too big an ask but basically I am trying to book a Qantas Oneworld Classic Flight Reward with which has the following basic structure: early March (1 to15) CNS to YUL; 14-16 days in YUL; YUL to SYD; 2/3 days in SYD; SYD to CNS. I want to get one J ticket (for the wife) and...

I am getting a bit worried. Applied for the status match (QFF Lifetime G and have installed the App but haven’t heard or seen anything yet. Is there any good email or phone number on which I can contact customer services? Should I try and resubmit? Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions.

Thanks, I'll give it a go in a couple of days.

I had my BNE-HKG return Qantas flights cancelled (and got a refund organised after calling) but unfortunately my positioning flights CNS-BNE (return) were on a separate PNR so the agent indicated that I was not able to cancel them (even for a voucher) without penalty. Yesterday I was informed...

True, but some (all?) people have parents who are older (probably due to biological logic) or older relatives whom they may visit and the older group are the most at risk.

I tried but it turns out my phone (an OPPO something or other) isn’t capable of getting the app. It has no problems with any other app I have downloaded. I called and they suggested I buy a new phone — not keen on that. Disappointed. My wife has an even more primitive mobile (it does on the...

Again, many thanks. I do appreciate members spending their time to help others.
