70E has no seat beside it because 70D does not exist. The reason for this is that there is a hatch there which is the emergency exit for the crew rest area which is below the floor. So, there should be a bit more space beside that seat. 71D is popular for the same reason...

Now Ethiopian Airlines has launched a strangely similar promo: https://shebamiles.ethiopianairlines.com/special-offers/offer-detail?offer=our-1-million-miles-sweepstakes-is-here!

Yep.

I wouldn't necessarily recommend using this as a travel money card, but if you load at least $100 onto a Qantas Pay card (formerly Qantas Travel Money) between 28 May - 5 August 2025, you can get 1,000 points. The $100 can be in AUD or foreign currency. Offer is for new cardholders only...

Hmm, don't think I'll be able to get to Sochi any time soon, so it's a pass from me!

I assume you can still purchase these in conjunction with a QF flight from Australia? E.g. MEL-SIN on QF connecting to SIN-DXB-ATH on EK?

Are you talking about redeeming Flying Blue points on Qantas, or Qantas points on KLM? If the latter, KLM Business rewards book into O class when using Qantas points. I did a KLM reward flight last year and did not earn any QF points or SCs.

The following notice has been added to the Amex Membership Rewards transfer partners page, beside HawaiianMiles: Get in by 30 June if you want to transfer into HawaiianMiles (you can transfer onwards from Hawaiian to Alaska Airlines at a 1:1 rate ;) )

The Qantas business class seat is slightly more spacious. Both have a similar seat made by the same manufacturer, but Malaysia Airlines squeezes an extra seat into every second row. This means some seats don't have as much storage space etc. Other than that, MH probably has the edge in most areas!

New TV series going behind the scenes at Melbourne Airport coming soon to Channel 10 and 10 Play. First episode will air on 5 June. Will anyone be watching? https://www.paramountanz.com.au/news/fasten-your-seatbelts-airport-24-7-is-cleared-for-takeoff/

There is a list of the highest-earning QFF cards and their associated annual fees here: https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/credit-cards/best-qantas-credit-card-offers/

I'm not currently aware of any changes to the business cards.

The restaurant will be open until 3, and if there are still people around we could always kick on at a nearby pub.

The last time I took QF37, the flight was delayed around 1.5 hours. On arrival into Singapore, they made an announcement about which flights all the (many) passengers with missed connections would be rebooked onto - most were the next evening. There were staff at the top of the airbridge to...

Westpac is making changes to Altitude, Qantas and Velocity point earn rates on its Platinum and Black credit cards, which take effect from 1 August: https://www.westpac.com.au/personal-banking/credit-cards/rewards-changes/ These cards will also add monthly caps on the amount of spend that...

Aegean has now updated its website. Award charts here: https://en.aegeanair.com/milesandbonus/partners/airlines/emirates/ It seems to be Aegean's standard award chart. Y & J awards only, and EK's carrier surcharges are being applied. The website is doing some weird things, e.g. showing...

I haven't received a fine from driving overseas (*touch wood*) but a friend got one from Portugal. The notice came by mail, months after the alleged traffic infringement, and was only in Portuguese. Of course, the deadline for payment had already passed long before the letter arrived, so the...

I would actually take an 11pm SYD-CBR flight by choice! But yes, I understand this point. In some markets, airlines actually have a large bank of prop flights from their hubs to regional destinations leaving between 11pm-midnight. They return around 5-7am. Finnair at HEL, Austrian at VIE and...
