    Qantas Points Club Discussion

    Two months left in my 12 month period and 65k points away from PC+ I already have 5 lounge invites all expiring throughout 2022 so I don’t see any incentive going for plus this year.

    Another triple points offer...

    Hotel bookings will be a nice earner once borders reopen, though QF hotels cancellation policy is not as generous as some of the big players so I wouldn’t book anything until last minute.

    How many times have you had to put the same booking into credit?

    I’m up to 5. The ticket in particular is a complimentary ANZ travel rewards perk (remember those) and was due to expire at the end of this month anyway - they only give 12 months validity from the initial booking date. I called ANZ today ready to beg for an extension and didn’t need to as they...

    Predictions of when international flights may resume/bans lifted

    The Feds want higher caps, they need skilled migrants and students to return so I reckon home quarantine and stage 2 will be sooner than later, the Feds are the ones who will decide that and not the states. I have two OS trips booked in the next 12 months, the first is doubtful but I’m hopeful...

    Predictions of when international flights may resume/bans lifted

    The jurisdiction who is granting exemptions should be responsible for all quarantine, but that’s not happening and you can see the states have become frustrated with the process. Hotel quarantine was supposed to be temporary but 18 months later the Feds still see a way to pass off their...

    Predictions of when international flights may resume/bans lifted

    The States have been taking the highest risk whilst the Feds grant thousands of unnecessary exemptions, so It’s right for the states to be calling the shots in this instance. The feds can utilise existing commonwealth facilities or build more Howard Springs they want higher caps. Yes, I won’t be...

    Predictions of when international flights may resume/bans lifted

    The PM comes out with more announcements with no set dates, but at least home quarantine is on the agenda which provides some hope to us disgruntled AFF’s. I’ve given up hope in going to Japan in Dec as I don’t see them opening up until 2022. I also don’t see JL resuming MEL flights until then...

    when will state borders re-open?

    McGowan the most arrogant, closely followed by Palasczuk. I’m a Vic and as much the lockdowns have affected me, I have a soft spot for Andrews because he’s done the hard yards. We also have the most disgusting and out of touch opposition in the country. Apart from Gladys I hear very little of...

    when will state borders re-open?

    Apparently a new case on the Sunshine Coast from a woman/ husband who drove to QLD to escape Melbourne lockdown, no further information as yet whether they crossed the border ‘Illegally’ but it reads like they have.

    The COVID-19 vaccine rollout in Australia has begun

    I did read somewhere that only 30ish% of 40-49 have received the first dose and there is still very high demand. It may be a couple more months until they open up to under 40’s at this rate.

    when will state borders re-open?

    I have a trip booked to QLD for this weekend, this will be the third attempt to visit since November. I’ve decided 3 strikes and out and will not be rebooking for the near future, QLD’s loss, not mine. The money saved will go into supporting Vic Businesses and paying off the new car. Apart...
