I booked a couple of these last week during the DSC Promotion from ADL-PER because Business Class was cheaper than Flexible Economy. I thought my eyes were seeing things. Flex Economy was $825 and Business was $699 at the time. Pretty good deal.

Thanks for that - I hadn't picked up on that change.

Just called to cancel my Amex Qantas Business Rewards - they offered me 60,000 points to keep it. I had tried to cancel it a month ago and they talked me into keeping it for another month until the fee was due (which is today) so I have ended up taking the points and will cancel in the coming...

Oh wow!! That's amazing. Will put that on the list.

Anyone heard if the STPC has been reinstated from late January? Otherwise, would anyone recommend anything particular to visit - we have a 13 hr layover at the end of Jan. Was going to do one of the 4 hr tours but thought might be better to just go into town ourselves and stay at a hotel for 8...

I’m finding the wait so frustrating as I will have qualified Platinum and have flights coming up on QR and SQ. (QR isn’t an issue as I’ll use QFWP to get clings access). But with SQ, I want to book seats and not have to pay for them (flying Y) but needing to wait until they’ve processed it. My...

I called 131211 at 330pm on Saturday and was answered immediately by Hobart. This is the second time that’s happened for me in the past 2 weeks.

Stupid question probably - I'm in Thailand and trying to call these numbers. keep getting a call busy sound. I've put +61 in front of it when calling from my Optus number. Should that work or does it not work when calling from overseas? I've gotten sick of the 2 hour wait when calling the 02...

I wish I had of checked this thread sooner. Just spent 1hr 56mins on hold as a Platinum to change a fully flex J ticket. I think I've spent 10 hours on the phone to Qantas in the past 2 weeks changing flights because of COVID issues.

So close to being scammed in Thailand after testing positive for COVID. I wanted to stay at the Pullman Bangkok Grand Sukhumvit Asoke instead of another hotel that my hospital was recommending. The Pullman Grand Sukhumvit is a 'Hospitel' (spelling is correct) - ie, one of the official hotels in...

The big question I have now is trying to work out which hotels are operating as "Hospitels" - ie, hotels connected to the hospitals where you can quarantine when you test positive for COVID. It seems quite hard to find a list of hotels that are available for this except for the ones that your...

Check with your airline though as Qantas needs to see a PCR test before you depart I believe. My understanding in Thailand is if you test positive while you're here, you have to quarantine for 10 days. You can do it in the hotel that you do your initial test in - that's been one of the traps...

I arrived in BKK last Wednesday night from Sydney and it was so easy to come through and get out of the airport and to the hotel. I booked Sofitel Sukhumvit direct and there was an option after you got through the room selection on Accor.com to book the PCR Test, transport etc. So, so simple to...

Finally travelling again and just checked into the Pullman Melbourne Albert Park. Was only $120 for the night. benefits included a room upgrade to top executive floor, free breakfast and welcome drink and then this!! the executive lounge is closed, but they are treating Platinums with a cheese...
