    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    I'm not 100% sure this is the right place, and I couldn't find anything when I searched the fora, but here goes: I was just looking at a status run to NZ from Canberra, to be taken in February 2018. When the options came up there were flights back from CHC to BNE and then on to CBR, but the...

    In search of an Empire.Siam,Burma and Singapore.

    I loved Pandaw cruising up the Irrawaddy last year - Bagan was spectacular. We made it up to Katha and saw/walked through the house George Orwell supposedly lived in. Great country and I'd love to return - hopefully their political situation will continue to improve.

    Could I carry this on?

    I have carried one of these in hand luggage before. It raised concerns at a few security checkpoints so I would advise having it easily accessible so you can show it to security - once they saw it unfolded and wasn't a knife I had no problems. Flew OneWorld including PER, CBR, SYD & LHR...

    Lol moment at hotels

    Stayed at a small, obviously recently renovated hotel in Haeinsa South Korea where the toilet had been placed too close to the door in the bathroom and rather than redo the plumbing they'd cut a toilet shaped hole in the door to allow it to swing inwards.

    QFF 15% Bonus points on credit or charge card transfers 6-15 November 2013

    Guess I'm lucky (for a change). Tried to transfer a substantial number of points on 26 October from Amex online, but it didn't work. Rang up Amex today and they cancelled that transfer attempt (the points had gone from my Amex account but no appeared in Qantas) and redid the transfer today...

    QF to give SCs for Classic Awards [Economy(X) only, booked by Dec 31]

    Yes, but the real question is will the pig be earning status credits? Or only past some windows, or only flying some classes, or only to some locations, or only for X months.
