    Airline fleet management/Logistics (Qantas focus)

    Being a bit of a nerdy type and always having had a minor interest in how timetabling trains/planes work and with a new found interest in the Qantas fleet and changes (and hopefully route expansion) I thought this would be a great place to discuss and learn how the airlines manage their fleets...

    Redemption for Australian Domestic Flights

    Me too. I have 13,425 points which is not likely to increase now with the joint activities and my QF gold. Presumably there's an 8,000 point flight there somewhere I can purchase.

    Santiago-Sydney classic awards apparently don't exist anymore?

    They're currently charging upwards of $5,000 for return flights to Santiago in economy. I don't think they see the need to put on extra flights when they can just extort for tickets on the existing ones.

    Fuel dearer at supermarket stations

    The 4c dockets certainly don't sway choice of supermarket petrol but a 12c or more discount is certainly worth it.

    Qantas increases fuel surcharges for bookings Aug 13/14 onwards

    Re: Qantas to raise fares blaming higher fuel costs and fall in Aussie dollar - SMH I've been LONE4 shopping for the last couple of weeks on oneworld's website and I've noticed the base fare has dropped ex-Sydney today from $3,700 and change to $3,509. Wonder if this is partially related.

    [Confirmed] QF removing [cheap] ASAs [from web booking engine Jun 26] was 10April

    re: [Confirmed] QF removing [cheap] ASAs [from web booking engine Jun 26-was]10April The booking engine has a very similar look and feel to the new AA booking engine. I've quite liked the AA booking engine in the last 3 weeks while playing around with international flight schedules.

    Comped an extra year for a chance to attain Platinum??

    No, it just means your next year membership has been mailed out I believe. The cut-off date is still as stipulated.

    ( Now gone) "how do I book a J any seat award at classic award points level" thread.

    re: ( Now gone) "how do I book a J any seat award at classic award points level" thread. I flew my JASA status run over the weekend (and first flights in domestic business).

    Oneworld multi-stop fare comparisons

    I'm currently planning my trip to the 2014 world cup in Brazil and associated South American adventures for a group upwards of 6 to 8 people. The options for flying oneworld to South America are obviously limited with only 3 QF flights per week so I imagine prices will be astronomical. I have...

    Multiple Amex Cards

    OK, so I've been approved for the ANZ card, I did that first as the 40,000 points will come in handy at the moment. I've decided to apply for the Edge first of the non-bank cards. Mainly because that card is free money. $150 David Jones Gift Voucher for the $150 card fee plus the free Virgin...

    Multiple Amex Cards

    The Edge they've negotiated to give you the choice of QF Rewards or Ascent but sacrificing the Virgin flight if you choose QF Rewards. The Reserve they appear to have negotiated the flight separate to the choice of rewards program.

I've paid discount renewals the last 2 years but when renewal comes up in December I won't be keeping it if charged $450 with the new scheme. I use the card for bills, petrol, supermarkets...
