    Qantas Business Class meals & menus

    Lunch QF528 SYD-BNE Sun 18/09 Loads were 8/12. On offer was some "sweet and sour" soup, a "bread and butter camembert pudding" or a ceaser salad. Let's say I enjoyed the peacan tart. :D I decided to be adventurous and went for a bread and butter pudding which FA described to me was "like a...

    Qantas Business Class meals & menus

    Thanks for clarifying, that makes the decision easy. With the point cost of an upgrade being the same, I'd rather get a proper meal. :-)

    Qantas Business Class meals & menus

    Is there much difference in domestic J catering between flights marked as "Dinner" vs "Refreshments" on SYD-BNE and SYD-MEL sectors? I have a flight coming up which I want to request an upgrade, but was wondering if I should change to a flight which departs 30 minutes earlier but is marked as...

    QF chauffeur drive two different experiences

    did your friend travel QF1 on 28/7? Our scheduled pickup for 11:45am for qf1 did not turn up, so after waiting for 15 mins I called the chauffeur service directly and they mumbled something similar about our flight been delayed and that that "we're still waiting to hear from Qantas". I...

    Qantas Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    Re: QF Upgrade Success Rate The magic SMS confirmation for J>F on QF1 SYD-LHR today (Thu) received at T-30 (PS) for 2 pax! Now, having been checking E/F regularly, this is what I can't really explain. All up until last Sun E/F was showing F8 A8 J7 C7, then on Sun it went down to 3 seats in F...

    Qantas Cash Card

    Is it available to everyone or a targeted offer? When I click on the link it says thank you for registering but I am not even logged into my QCC account. I can't find it on QCC website. Update: just spoke to QCC who were certain it was targeted, but then spoke to Qantas Loyalty who confirmed it...

    Bankwest Qantas Transaction account [being withdrawn in 2025]

    I can tell that I made the first three eligible spends in Jan, Feb, Mar and got the first lot of 5K credited in May. I believe this is because of the rule that says that if the account was opened mid-month and <$500 was spent in the first month, they will consider the following six months for...

    Trying to submit a price match. Price Promise | Qantas It used to work in the past, but now when I attach a screenshot the file does not appear to be attached so I am not certain if the webform attaches it. Tried in Chrome, IE10, Firefox. Does it appear to be working for you? :confused:

    QF Double Status Credits (SC) offer for all :)

    Given that most people including myself have received DSCs within a week of flying, I wouldn't wait 6 weeks and would give them a call. By the time you get a call centre callback it will be 6 weeks anyway. :mrgreen:

    Red Roo gone?

    In the age when anyone with a social media account can become an instant spokesperson for the airline, it is difficult to believe that the management would leave these fronts exposed. Marketing 101 - perceptions matter. Most airlines are still in the dark ages when it comes to managing...

    Qantas Club Renewal Fail Rant

    From what I have been told over the phone when renewing my QC, there appears to be a grace period of at least 2 weeks. So you can call a few days after your renewal date to pay at the special rate.

    Booking class of UK connection

    I booked J QF2 with a connection from TXL a few weeks ago. Both legs were in J. Not sure about domestic flights, but I presume the same. What class does come up in the search of the itinerary for the domestic leg?

    Woolworths reviewing partnership with Qantas Frequent Flyer.

    They may be having two statistical groups, like a control group - well, just my theory. To test if those who stopped shopping in December reengage without a campaign. i stopped scanning my card on 31dec. Got an email to choose between 870 QFF pts and $10 monopoly for $60 spend. No brainer...

    QF SC's on OW intra-EU

    Looking to top up my QF SC's balance to reach SG later this year, and since we need to fly / spend $$ intra-EU anyway on our trip, I have been looking for flights on OW-members. I will have a shortfall of about 70 SCs to get to SG. Not many choices really, BA, IB, AY and AB. :-| We will need to...

    J sales to LHR, do they happen? any tips?

    The only trouble was that I couldn't use it online. But I called Qantas and they sorted everything out. They even held the seats for 48hrs including the BA leg TXL>LHR because my CC would otherwise decline it that day. :) The only issue seems to be when using a credit voucher is that it is...

    J sales to LHR, do they happen? any tips?

    Thanks to all of you for suggestions! My Update: the QF business sale fare SYD>LHR reappeared! A return J quoted $8.1K for July departure. I know it is significantly more than what other airlines offer, but it is also significantly less than the standard business saver fare $9.2K is, such that...

    QF changing SYD-LAX flights without notice?

    Glad it is all resolved satisfactory for you! :) after a bad personal experience being slugged with $700 change fees to make a simple date change on a fare that was $1700 a few years back, I avoid OTA at all costs. When a price given by OTA is cheaper than what qf online is quoting for the...

    Has anyone bought anything on Qantas Mall?

    on all my purchases the base points (5ppd) came through first, followed by another batch a few weeks/months later. No specific pattern how long. Meanwhile, I can track my taxi in real-time... :D
