    Transit through an airport in a city/state lockdown

    Now, it's time back to update this thread since I am now in Singapore, serving SHN (Stay Home Notice). I finally decided to go through Melbourne, despite the fact that it has more cases. Frankly, as vaccinated, I worried more about the unexpected journey interruption than the virus itself...

    Long wait for refund for cancelled reward flights Qantas - a common experience?

    In the past few months, I had to book and cancel more than 10 award flights, I found it very randomly actioned. For points, sometimes could come in within hours, sometimes weeks, but once it's over a week or two, you can call in and the support agent could easily contact their backend to...

    Transit through an airport in a city/state lockdown

    Thank you so much Seat0B, really appreciated. The usual 4 hours direct flight now turns into a whole day event with so many uncertainties and risks.... But what else can I do... Thanks and I will keep monitoring the situation and I will surely come and update the situation. Thank you again!

The somewhere have 4 options, SYD, MEL, BNE and PER. But with SYD locked until end of the month, BNE and MEL also in lockdown...

    Paying for Qantas Club renewal while Gold?

    Hi ChrisFlyer, (are you in anyway connected to SQ? :)) I took the bite as well before the deadline, but I didn't receive the status credit or points yet until now, and despite the msg after payment shows the correct expiry date of QC, I cannot find it anywhere if I login to Qantas portal.

    Qantas Call Centre Long Wait Times

    Guess what, after my yesterday morning 5 mins success, I called again this morning for another booking, and yes, another 5 mins! And today I realized they didn't play for the "only call for flights within 24 hours" voice recording, so does it mean the situation significantly improved?

    Qantas Call Centre Long Wait Times

    They cancelled my original flight and gave me a mission impossible flight with connection time of -2h (yes, negative 2 hours), and yes, it was displayed like this on my itinerary, which itself is something to be amused at. Anyway, I had to call the hotline, not sure if it's my luck, I called...
