    Exciting News from Allan (according to the email)

    OT - but did you elect not to receive it? I don't recall making a choice either way. Or have you opted not to receive anything by s-mail from QF?

    Exciting News from Allan (according to the email)

    Interesting theory - I have travelled to PER (as noted previously not very often in the last 4 years, but between 1998 and 2006 probably averaged 5 trips per year), and do receive the Air mag (pain in the cough - apparently it can't be folded to fit in PO box, so I have to endure the queues to...

    Exciting News from Allan (according to the email)

    Same here - I got the email as well, but checking back, I have been to PER 5 times in the last 4 years - BNE-PER-BNE (2006) BNE-PER-KGI-PER-BNE (2007) BNE-SYD-PER-SYD-BNE (2007 - in one day, in Y - the trip from hell) BNE-PER-KGI-PER-BNE (2009) BNE-MEL-ADL-KGI-PER-BNE (2010) So, I'm...

    Election 2010 August 21

    My seat (Bowman) looks interesting - currently held by LIB, but with a 0.01% margin. I'll be keen to see which way it comes out.

    cancelling/reversing velocity miles

    I was also looking at clause 4.6. I suspect that the intent of the clause is to prevent double dipping, but the wording does allow VR to refuse the reversal.

    Qantas Domestic Business Lounge - oneworld Emerald access Discussion

    Re: platinum - thrown out of galleries first at heathrow, waiting for explanation Maybe QF could rebrand their Dom J offering as F - it might make some people more accepting of the prices they charge. From what I have seen in SYD and MEL (not so much BNE), the wine selection seems a...

    Duty free at SYD on transit to MEL

    I've never had an issue with duty free coming through SYD when returning to BNE - so I would think that you should be OK.

    Qantas to Buenos Aires. What's going on?

    And LAN don't fly from Aus to EZE - they codeshare with QF, the same as QF codeshares on the LAN flight to SCL. They've got the South American market pretty well sown up (at least as far as direct flights go)

    Qantas Domestic Business Lounge - oneworld Emerald access Discussion

    Re: platinum - thrown out of galleries first at heathrow, waiting for explanation I think the OP was talking about renaming the lounge rather than the fare class. However, from what I can see, the debate seems to be about what the lounge is called vs what it is. So, I have a suggestion...

    QF crew in J cabin - how appropriate?

    Does it? I thought that sitting on someone else's lap or shoulders was just being friendly in the NT :mrgreen::mrgreen:

    platinum - thrown out of galleries first at heathrow, waiting for explanation

    Interesting. Under the assumption that a QF WP has a contractual relationship with QFF, the statement that you have access to the BA 1st lounges when in fact it is not "guaranteed" could be held to be a fraudulent or negligent misrepresentation. If QFF do have a formal arrangement with BA...

    platinum - thrown out of galleries first at heathrow, waiting for explanation

    I just did a quick cruise through the BA site, and I couldn't find anything about OW Emerald member having access to BA lounges. There were statements to the effect that BA Gold status is OW Emerald equivalent, and that Gold members get access to BA and partner first lounges, but no specific...

    Upgrade to Business using points on QF

    Sorry - my bad. Obviously the memory cells aren't working up to spec.

    Upgrade to Business using points on QF

    IIRC, when I requested J upgrades last year SYD-LAX, the QF system had a note that a Y+ upgrade request was automatically included if there were no J seats available.

    Favourite city in Oz

    I have a mate on acreage in Doonan, and visit regularly for golf (and beers), so I don't mind the northern end of the SC. In addition to the refugees from Melbourne, there's also a lot of ex-pat New South Welshmen, so there's usually a good time to be had around June / July (given that I'm a...

    Seat Map/Availability Question [and "Selling J seats" for Y prices]

    re: Seat Map/Availability Question [and "Selling J seats" for Y prices] I understand the principle behind this, but what I can't figure out on that basis is how they can offer 9 Y seats, when there are only 6 QF codeshare J seats on the flight?

    Seat Map/Availability Question [and "Selling J seats" for Y prices]

    re: Seat Map/Availability Question [and "Selling J seats" for Y prices] OK - I'm still tracking QF322 SCL-AKL, and on EF it went from 0 availability in any Y fare bucket and J3 yesterday, to J4 C3 D3 I3 Y9 B5 H5 K4 M0 L0 VC SC NC QC OC XC E0 today. I also checked via the QF booking page, and...
