    Upgrade Priority. Staff vs. Paying Passenger

    WOW!!!! What can i say??? Clearly everyone else is wrong and you are the only one who is correct. Did you bother reading the title of the thread?? I guess only you decide what is on topic and what is not. I bow down before you. oh and i love how all your theories are based on anecdotal...

    Upgrade Priority. Staff vs. Paying Passenger

    Hang on, this discussion was about upgrade priorities. Do you know for a fact that on that particular flight there were passengers denied odus? If not, this whole conversation is pointless and that staff member had every rigth to be there, whether on leisure or duty travel.

    VZL has IFE and red leather seats

    I flew VZL recently and was very surprised to find that it had both IFE and the red leather seats in business. It did not have the BSI, which came much later. This is odd because I was of the understanding that the first aircraft to be delievered with IFE was VZM. Furthermore, I have flown in...

    Official Qantas response please

    Can I assume that on those occasions where you indeed have to travel economy and the cart is blocking the aisle such that you cannot access the economy toilets that you will NOT be offended when the cabin crew tell you the J toilet is unavailable? Can I also assume that if for whatever reason...

    Qantas-Emirate partnership gives me headaches.

    Aaawwww, where's mummy when you need her?? You win some, you lose some. Didn't they teach you that in primary school? Or maybe you weren't listening.

    First refurbished 767 enters service end of the month [Oct '12]

    Do you have a problem with them saving money? Um, isn't that what everyone is trying to do - both businesses and consumers? I have no doubt you'd switch airlines for less than $10 - who's being the hypocrite now??

    Disparity booking the same flights from O/S vs from AUS

    Could it be because we are paid so much more than just about everyone else in the world? Bet you don't think it's unfair that you get paid so much more for doing the same job than someone in China, or even the USA for that matte!

    Business Lounges closed 26 December 2012 to 6 January 2013

    So you can play "dumb" just to create a scene but no one else can play dumb (ie: the staff). I suspect your description of "obnoxious" resutled form the gate keeper not batting their eyelashes at you. Or was it obnoxious because they didn't offer you fries with it? They conveyed the information...

    No reply to disrespectful manner in which Qantas Club access was denied

    How is that disrespectful? Let me ask again, how is that disrespectful?? They denied you access based on a Jetstar boarding pass and an expired gold card. That is perfectly reasonable. And then they confiscated the expired gold card which they are well within their rights to do. Oh, did I...

    New QF 5/6 Schedule post Frankfurt

    Just couldn't resist wading into this one! If all 9 aircraft are currently rotated through LAX, DFW, SCL and JNB, where do the aircraft that operate 51/52 BNE SIN and 107/108 SYD LAX come from. The 51/52 rotation has been operated by a refurb a lot more than 50% of the time this month, while...

    Wheelchair Assistance when you don't need Wheelchair!

    I suggest you take this to A Current Affair or Today Tonight. They would run a feature exposing the widespread scam and you would get to vent to a national audience. Of course these shows are well known for their quality journalism and I have no doubt this story would be right up their alley...

    Qantas award seats that don't exist

    This thread is hilarious. The OP has disagreed with or contradicted just about every suggestion that has been made. If they are looking for sympathy then perhaps they should look elsewhere.

    Being told to stow Laptop for takeoff and landing?

    That's fine for a responsible person such as yourself, but I'm sure that what you have described is so that the cabin crew can check for compliance. Once the seatbelt sign comes on the cabin crew are seated so they are unable to make sure that everyone has in fact turned off all their devices...

    Would you complain to QF about this?

    So they have offered an apology. What more does one want? When does one become satisfied with the level of compensation? It is a sad reflection on society that these days as soon as someone is the slightest bit offended they demand compensation. Note that it no way am I suggesting that the...

    Platinum Shadow - how does it work?

    I would suggest that is a very full flight. I don't quite know the extent of overbooking on QF domestic, particularly transcons but it is possible that all seats may be occupied.

    Domestic Upgrades - Improved Experience

    Very true. And unless you are applying for an upgrade in the lounge just because there are seats available in business does not mean there is award inventory.

    ADL - MEL/SYD (drinks)

    And when your 1630 departure out of Sydney for Perth doesn't get served drinks what will you say then?? It's amazing how many people want "service enhancements" just because circumstances didn't suit them on a particular flight!
