    Qantas boosts international capacity, wet lease Finnair aircraft

    Yeah I complained in a previous thread that for some reason on the old qf23/24 service the QF crew on this flight were always pretty poor. Even in the premium cabins. I couldn’t work out why it was this route specifically.

    Bangkok Airways Boarding Pass and Baggage Interline QF Codeshare

    Hi AFF, I have booked a return flight SYD > BKK > HKT (return) with BKK > HKT operated on PG (Bangkok Airways) with a QF flight number and all of it is on the same booking. Booked as QF 295/ QF 3488 - QF 3455/ QF 296. I have checked the QF website and can only find reference to baggage and...

    Qantas Hotels - Seriously WTF?

    Ive actually been lucky, I’ve found a “sweet spot” with Qantas hotels for some small non chain hotels in regional areas, I’ve found Qantas hotels to be cheaper than other options. One time it was the only place I could book the accomodation I wanted (even direct said sold out). But this is all...

    AMEX QBR Companion Card Offer (No Annual Fee)

    Hello AFF, I received what may be a targeted offer to sign up to the Amex QBR card with no annual fee. This is because I already have the Qantas Amex Ultimate Card. The trade off here is, there is no annual fee every year but no sign up bonus either. Unfortunately I would rather the annual...

    Qantas Hotels Triple Points Offers

    That is unfortunate, I think I mentioned this on a different thread. For stays in NSW I have found several properties that the Qantas hotels rate was cheaper (only $5-$10 p/n) than other booking providers. Once I use the Qantas hotels voucher it makes it much cheaper. Another benefit is a lot of...

    Qantas A380 reliability issues creeping up again?

    Same I had revenue qf and a classic award (with qantas points) aa flight from lax and they wouldn’t through check me. This was at the first check in too. The person said “I know the rules and you can’t in this situation”.

    2024 Qantas Inflight safety video

    I am on QF 87 Syd > Seoul. Turns out they have a Korean version of the video after as well. In Korean, show Korean destinations and its shorter but the combined 2 videos feels like a feature length film.

    Qantas boosts international capacity, wet lease Finnair aircraft

    Qatar is great but couple weeks ago for something different I went to the EK lounge. Qatar is probably better but EK was still good. EK was extremely empty when I was there which made the service very attentive. I sometimes prefer the self service style vs table service. Allows me to eat as much...

    Qantas adds Brisbane-Manila but suspends Sydney-Shanghai flights

    Yeah I'd love a flight that would leave after 6PM, but agreed the arrival time into SIN would be poor. I'd love to be able to have a work day in SYD then leave for SIN at the end of the day. The 4:20PM departure of QF1 is still just a bit too early to be able to do that. Still lose too much of a...

    Qantas A380 reliability issues creeping up again?

    I think QF just want to hold on until a350 and more 787s show up. The a380 “can” make a load of money if they are filling the seats and utilisation is high (like now). But as demand starts to fall they start costing the airline a lot. After the last couple of weeks, I’d be very worried having...

    Qantas Delays/Cancellations

    QF12 Departing LAX 09/05 cancelled (delayed then returned to gate due to aircraft issues) QF12 Departing LAX 10/05 cancelled QF18 operating a380 service from LAX 10/05 QF11 Departing SYD 11/05 cancelled

    Qantas A380 reliability issues creeping up again?

    QF12 10/05 service has been cancelled and they are running it as QF18 instead. Which appears to be VH-OQJ, I can't see any others anywhere near LAX now. Why would they cancel QF12 and run exactly the same service with same departure time as QF18? Would it be to not allow any sales on it? I...

    Qantas A380 reliability issues creeping up again?

    I assume so, even just for optics. It would look mighty silly if they acquired extra a380s after just scrapping 2 perfectly good ones. Also it wouldn’t be without significant investment, they would likely have to refit the cabin and paint the aircraft which would have to wait in line behind...

    Qantas A380 reliability issues creeping up again?

    You got lucky, QF12 has been delayed again. My stranded family members who are like joe public that you refer to aren’t happy. QF wouldn’t even give them their bags back (transferred from inbound flight).

    Qantas A380 reliability issues creeping up again?

    Have family members on the same flight affected by the delay. We were also affected by a380 delays coming in causing us to miss an onward connection. This means both ways for my family members they have had an overnight stop in LAX at the courtesy of QF. I'm not travelling with them on the...

    Promo: Up to 30,000 bonus points with Qantas Hotels & Holidays

    I had almost the opposite situation. I was trying to book a hotel direct (in Australia) and checked some other booking sites too and the hotel is unavailable almost everywhere for my dates but on Qantas Hotels it is available. Works well because the hotels only take Visa/ Mastercard direct but I...

    Qantas Delays/Cancellations

    QF12 Departing LAX at 23:45 9/05 has been delayed 11 hours, now scheduled at 11:00 10/05. With my limited knowledge it appears VH-OQD and VH-OQH are currently in LAX. VH-OQD last activity was 07/05 but OQH arrived only 1 hour so should be able to turn around on schedule or with only minimal...
