    Article: The 8 Former Oneworld Members that Left the Alliance

    Closest I got to S7 was using their lounge in Moscow Domodedevo on a lhr-dme-hnd-syd-mel run on a cheap high SC earning JAL ticket. It was an okay lounge and I didn’t have long to wait because I spent most of my time at DME persuading a very surly security guard that I was indeed transiting and...

    Switching FF number on Qatar booking

    Thanks this is exactly what I need to know. Looks like I’m in for some fun at the check in desk at CGK. On the way back I can do it at the lounge/gate in DOH, my first segment is a codeshare on BA which I’ll want to credit to QF.

    Qantas double status credits OR double points offer [book 23-28 March 2023]

    Registered, booked and burning some credit vouchers - vouchers get me as far as CGK and WP for another year. I then have a cheap QR J fare to get me to London, that gets me VA gold so I can be a true free agent for the rest of the year.

    Switching FF number on Qatar booking

    Couldn't find an answer to this. What's the best way to switch FF number on a QR booking? I want to use my qantas WP for seat selection but collect VA status credits (and miles)

    Anyone had any success combining Qantas Travel Passes?

    I couldn't find a thread on this even though I am sure I've seen the question answered before./ I've got multiple qantas travel passes, some with only a little bit on them - is there a way to use multiple or combine them together? It's getting hard for me to use them for business travel as we...

    789/388 Broken Business Suites Rife - PAX Involuntary moved

    Feel like Finnair may be on to something with their almost mechanism free j seats.

    Sliding doors in business class: A gimmick or not?

    I haven’t yet flown J class with doors yet, plenty of times without. I can’t see the point; that said I always get good sleep in the window seat of jal apex suites and old school BA rear facing window seats (sadly missed when they finally go). Is it the privacy? I don’t know, it might well be...

    NOT PROVIDED XX - odd items in my account activity

    Checking my recent activity after a couple of Cathay flight to see if they’d credited yet; and there’s a bunch of zeroed items all listed as NOT PROVIDED XX-FEB-2023. Any ideas what these are and if I should do anything about them? Screenshot of some recent activity.

    Qantas Home Loans - 100,000 QFF points per year

    Pretty competitive offer, if I hadn’t just refinanced onto a similar rate then I’d probably do it. Let’s see where we are after the next rate rise.

    Throwaway 3K ticket for SIN F lounge access

    If you have less time, east coast lagoon hawker centre is a reallly quick cab ride away. Go to Ah Hwee for barbecue chicken wings. Bedok market is even closer, I’ve managed to eat there on a 4 hr layover and achieved a shower before boarding. Better than any lounge food.

    Current Qantas First Lounge Menu (SYD/MEL) and relevant topics

    Am I right in thinking that the last flight out of MEL for which the F Lounge is open for is QF155 departing at 23:25 to AKL? I have a 1am departure to HKG in a week or so.

    Virgin to Qantas Comparison

    I’m on my 3rd VA2 flight in 7 days and it’s a bit of a revelation. I’ve been a QF WP pretty much since I came to australia with a short period on an Air Berlin OWS card matched from delta. Maria in the Melbourne business lounge knows me by sight and remembered my coffee order. Flying VA2...

    Upgrades with AsiaMiles

    Has anyone had any recent success with upgrades using AsiaMiles? I’ve got MEL-HKG-NRT and return booked in PE, can’t see any award availability on line and wondering if it’s worth a call to them.

    Qantas stops vegetarian meals on shorter domestic flights

    This evening in the Qantas Club and JLounge in Sydney Dom they are doing plant based food tastings, off china plates no less.

    Qantas Business Class meals & menus

    The fact they still serve ozeki sake in J on flights to japan continues to be a matter of severe embarrassment. It’s absolute garbage, worse than if they broke out a yellowtail goonsack. It’s not like it’s hard or costly to do better. Dan’s and BWS have recently massively upped their sake...

    Qantas stops vegetarian meals on shorter domestic flights

    Indeed, on my last flight SYD-MEL is was one or more vegetable Arancini. I didn’t eat it but I never do on the short hops, I’ve either eaten in the lounge or going to eat a proper meal on arrival.

    Where to credit OneWorld flights now I don't need to credit to QFF?

    Thanks for the advice. Second question: When and how should I put my a BA number in so I can still get my QF status benefits? NB seat selection is not a benefit I enjoy, Qantas IT has blocked for me through the app and website for years. It’s really lounge access and priority screening most of...
