    All international travelers will be quarantined in hotels or designated facilities

    +1. Australia is a very dumb and young country. So easy to track with a phone. We are all tracked anyway. If q-teen was half reasonable and flexible in Australia "for all" I would consider coming back for a short period to visit family, my property and tidy things up. Until then, northern...

    Qatar Airways status match to Virgin Australia

    You never know. I think they will come up with something if enough push it. I only gaining a few here and there and we can actually travel, work or leisure. But they busting their cough with the Aus flights and running them at a loss to improve position and market share. I read once they need to...

    Qatar Airways status match to Virgin Australia

    Best invite from their behalf. Was great for me but poorly managed for most. What it costs them to run as to what they get out of it. Status matches cost plenty in marketing and labour and QR have to pay when we use QF lounge. Revenue back will be little at best. Is there any value in the data...

    Qatar Airways status match to Virgin Australia

    It has not been the best invite has it! I mean their plan has worked for me as I have QATAR booked home to Budapest in 10 days which I have never used. But that may be my only QR run until the review date.... Other than that with Australia closed, till what looks like this next financial year...
