Travelled in Row 32 of "cattle class plus" a few times now HKG-SYD and LAX -SYD on both occasions the aircraft was freezing, both night flights of course . So cold coming back from HKG the crew (fantastic crew by the way) issue us peasants business class blankets. The A380 in my humble opinion...

Thanks for that have not always been able to get on QF21 and it is yet another night flight not my favourite time for flying

Hi all just wanted to share my recent travels . I travel to ROK (Korea) regularly and clearly would prefer to use my Platinum privileges with Qantas. Sadly like many places our national carrier does not include Korea but has some arrangement with Asiana. I tried Asiana once that was enough. So...

Thanks I was not aware of all the acronyms its looks like another language at times

I became a Qantas FF in 1977 and over many years have enjoyed the ups and many downs with our National carrier. Yesterday's news makes me wonder after some serious thought do I continue to reward Qantas with my loyalty?. The announcement is worded to look positive but true to form the current...

Jetstar Business Class max fare to Hawaii,

Anyone had experience on how long it takes Qantas to validate and add missing points? Put in the claim on the Qantas website but apart from the automatic acknowledgment nothing in 10days.

Sadly I agree Jet Star max to use the lounge get points and status credits. Did it because I had never flown Jetstar. Really in hindsight the value is not apparent. I was told that on Business class in Jetstar you cannot use the Qantas lounge unless its a max fare.
