    Qantas to fly to Cooma

    Yeah I’d be interested to know if services to OOM will resume this winter.

    QF A350 First

    It looks like the IFE is positioned on the wall behind the chair. So this means no IFE during taxi, take off and landing? Also looks like flying backwards when sleeping. While just lying down during cruising probably isn’t that noticeable, Id still prefer to be faceing forward. It doesn’t look...

    Changes to how you use your $450 Travel Credit

    Looks like this move is going across all cards. Just received the same email 20 minutes ago about my QF Amex Ultimate Card for the $450 credit. My main concern about this change is what if you make a mistake with the transaction (not enough spend) and the credit doesn’t apply. Today you know if...

    Qantas Block Partner Earn on Competitor Routes

    QF are really making themselves hard to love. A solution is join BA executive club and credit to BA on both QF and QR. As far as I am aware BA don’t do any reduced earn gymnastics for OW members?

    Qantas Block Partner Earn on Competitor Routes

    Agreed. If I am a QR member clearly id fly VA now. But I think this on purpose QF clearly want to be as far away from QR as possible despite being in the same alliance. QF seemingly want to avoid the situation of paying for status earning on their flight but then the benefits can be used on VA...

    New Amex statement credits

    Just when you thought you had seen it all in the Qantas lounge...

    I do think Qantas Club dress code (when enforced) is on the stricter side so I would be ok with a slight reduction. That being said I do think there should be a minimum standard of dress and PJs don’t fit that. Something like footwear, not an excessive amount of skin showing (I’m talking muscle...

    When does Loyalty Bonus become available to select after qualifying for it?

    Good news! Was refreshing like crazy all day and it came in! You are looking at QFs newest WP. For anyone looking at this thread later. It came in almost exactly 24 hours after the sc credited.

    When does Loyalty Bonus become available to select after qualifying for it?

    Yes, checked via desktop at the my account link. I only have a banner congratulating me retaining gold (which I did months ago). Yeah due to unfortunate timing with my QF account/ I was a NB with QF during covid, I haven't been eligible for many of the status retention/ sc roll over offers and...

    When does Loyalty Bonus become available to select after qualifying for it?

    Did it eventually show up? How long after? I ticked over the loyalty bonus this morning, SC credited but like your original post no where can I select to use it. I'm impatient as this will be the SC that takes me over to platinum.

    Qantas Business Class meals & menus

    Tried to do a search but wasn't able to find anything recently. Forgive me as I am somewhat new to Qantas, it appears pre pandemic QF had "Menu Select" which would allow pre booking the inflight meal 7 days before travel. This looks to have gone when the pandemic started (or maybe before?) is...

    SYD-DPS truly non-stop in a 738

    It depends on the loads. VA 1.0 (and QF pre covid) would block seats to ensure 737 could do it non-stop. Demand wasn't as strong either so flights might have had enough spare seats for headroom if there was strong headwinds. As far as I am aware QF are only using an A330 right now so they don't...

    Double points for using travel credit for flights [December 2022]

    Well I just did it and on my gift voucher it says "Qantas Flight Credit" but then also mentions Gift Voucher. Side note: it's strange it says nothing next to "remaining gift voucher value" that you can see up top. (The amount of the voucher plus reference is cropped out on the bottom left.)...

    Double points for using travel credit for flights [December 2022]

    They are probably trying to bring their liability down. While its in QF bests interests to have the credit expire. It still looks bad on the balance sheet to have $xmillions of outstanding credit so they want them off their balance sheet. Also it says all credit from the looks of it. Meaning...

    Amex "I'm going to cancel my card" - bonus points given thread.

    I'm not really in a position to risk it being completely cancelled right now. In around March I'll be able to try it if no one else has by then.

    Amex "I'm going to cancel my card" - bonus points given thread.

    Has anyone used the "cancel card account" online? It asks you to select a reason so I am thinking they might try and send a retention offer after submitting?

    Hotel Promotions Hilton Dine like a member up to 25% discount off food and drinks

    I wish they would just make this a permanent benefit instead if just slowly extending it. Also wish more properties were included, the exclusion list is massive.

    Unable to link Complimentary lounge Invitation

    I am QF gold and attempting to link "Domestic Business" lounge invitation to my booking for BNE > SYD so I have access to the business lounge instead of the Qantas Club, however it says "already has access" to the Qantas Club. How do I tell the website I want to use the Domestic Business lounge...
