I just booked ADL -DFW for nearly $5k in Y... it's ridiculous. Having said that, I'm hoping they take my upgrade requests to premium for the longhaul legs (oddly only 19600pts each LAX leg?). I'm hoping fares drop for my planned trip this winter.

@eric2011, so in other words... be myself 🤣

The fail is, OTR (which is under the BP umbrella) does not honor the QF rewards thing... shame all of the BPs within 50kms of me are OTR. GAHHHH!

I tend to travel for more than a month at a pop and need clothes for all seasons so can't do HLO. Add to that, they weigh your HL to/from AUS & US so there's no wriggle room. Big fail for me lately is the handlers obviously hurling my heavy bags because they are breaking the base structure (new...

From memory they post prices in ADL but now you'll make me check on this in my multiple airports next week :p

Yeah, I noticed that fleecing in Kolcatta airport some 10 years ago.

That sounds like a plan but is it actually allowed and doable, as in put it in your room?!?!?!

Interesting... I'll have to get the AA app for my flight next week because my bag often gets lost (yay, lucky me!) and it'd be good to be able to track it.

They rejected my claim for damaging a brand new $500 hard guitar case... thankfully my son had actually wrapped the vintage guitar in the case. 1668776650 Booked a flight today and after noting a discrepancy had to call CC... surprisingly it only took ~20mins queue to get a CSA but then after...

Will be interesting to see what happens out of ADL en route to DFW on Tuesday as ADL seems slack in every regard. The domestic flight is less of a worry tho' as they don't enforce the pissy carryon allowance for flts to the US.

Digressing as this post is rebirthed... has anyone linked an MR card via Wells Fargo? And in regards to transferring Aus pts to US points, would I be correct in guessing the US based points would then only be applicable if booking flights from the US?

Glad you found some takers BUT, more importantly... THANK YOU FOR AMENDING THE POST AS <TAKEN>!!!! It's that whole, "Yay a freebie!"(or discounted stuff, etc), then scroll thru 3 pages only to find it's gone 🤣😢... I appreciate it smckay!

Just looking back thru this thread... I was on the flipside of that debaucle trying to get from DFW to ADL. Communication was abysmal and pretty non-existent (in part because the app would not let me load my temporary US number after I arrived there)... in a collective 7 flight...

As a newbie searching the old skool way (via logging into Qantas) I find NO award seats in Economy nor PE for next June/July/Aug (and I have booked a year out in the past)... where are these added award seats? It also wouldn't give me the option for points seats on a multi-city (again, have done...

BAM1748, I'd love to know how you get 'cheap postage' to Aus from the US?!?! MY sister mails me a men's shoebox-sized parcel for Christmas and it's STUPID expensive!! Unfortunately, they've dropped the allowance for AUS/USA (I'm now a pleb). I typically find it's cheaper to take an extra bag...

The frustrating thing, RooFlyer88, is the disparity with the 'hanky'... my recent return from the US entailed 8 flight changes/cancellations (I arrived home a day and a half late) and my compo was a hotel room when I was forced to stay overnight in Sydney... nothing else even offered whereas...

BAM1748, surely you must be the exception to the rule (or maybe I am) because I have had COUNTLESS luggage items go missing (including a vintage guitar that took over a week to 'find' and have returned) from any variety of carriers. I've only joined this forum recently, so would be a 'Jill...

Well, they offered an apology to their customers... that makes it all good, right? 🤣

Heya! Figured I should do an intro as I've been stalking in the background for a bit ... so much great info in here. Happy flying all!

I hear ya, glennp. I spent numerous days trying to book flights to the US with a credit. I too had multiple people say they'd call me back... with the last one I LITERALLY laughed out loud at her which must've been the key because she did actually ring me back two days later 😂 It still took two...
