    Status Recognition in Y

    Historically I have found that the CSM on QFi flights has typically individually greeted high status pax not long after take off to thank them for flying and asking if there is anything they can help with etc. While I have typically found it a bit clinical, it does help when they offer express...

    Another 50% SC promo

    Got it also, first one ever. With renewal in June I am already assured of Gold requalification so not much use to me either.

    Qantas Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    Re: QF Upgrade Success Rate Well that's 0/1 for QF6 on Friday. Put in a request for an upgrade from Y to J or PE and no luck as Gold. The funny thing was in the morning a J seat map was showing parallel to my selected Y seat so thought it might work in my favour. There were at least 4 seats...

    New April Bonus Points when purchasing.

    Firstly, you are paying hefty fuel surcharges because of the BA flight from Manchester to London. I have booked two flights before from mine and my wife's account online, no problem. As soon as I saw there were two seats for the flights I wanted (SYD-DXB in F) I simply put a hold on both seats...

    New April Bonus Points when purchasing.

    Don't forget you could also go Qantas which tends to often have good availability and no fuel surcharges. Just avoid BA. But Etihad also seems to have good availability looking months out.

    F Awards Emirates

    Agree I have looked at lots of options and EK never comes up for 2 pax. Will probably have to be QF again I think.

    F Awards Emirates

    Looking at securing 2 F Awards to Europe next year using Qantas Points and looking at various dates it seems impossible to get 2 seats. Does Emirates only release 1 seat? Looked at various destinations but to no avail. Plenty of availability with QF to London for 2 pax but that's it.

    QF1 - a long flight with no water!

    I received an official apology today on email from Loula at Executive Relations. She states that if I wish to add comment to direct them back to her. I think they must have been inundated with feedback from pax.

    QF1 - a long flight with no water!

    There was never any mention of the plane diverting. As I mentioned, they loaded extra bottles of water on. Clearly " just in case". Was a wise move as it turned out. At least supplies of Tattinger were sufficient....

    QF1 - a long flight with no water!

    I did not carry on to London ( thank god) but they did offer Y pax meal vouchers in lieu of the second meal service. My wife and I were the first two people off the aircraft and there was a scrum of staff waiting at the bridge, along with a table of water. All the staff were very embarrassed by...

    QF1 - a long flight with no water!

    I was on this flight travelling in F. It was indeed Charles Kingsford Smith and it was in engineering all day, hence the 2hr delayed departure. I heard flight attendants discussing the need to load an extra 75 bottles of water prior to take off so I believe they were not convinced the issue was...
