    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    I note that one flight is about 50% more than the other, are you flying on different aircraft?

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    Oh good points, the outbound is a DHC-400 but the return is on the -200. So the smaller aircraft seems to generate more CO2 per person. 1670571716 Sydney is all downhill from here :)

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    I noticed the increase in points to offset (about 1K for ARM-SYD) a few days ago and it looks like it's been adjusted again. However, why is it almost twice the emissions going one way than the other way?

    How long until you get to LTP? (Or are you already there ^_~)

    Is LTG treated any differently to regular SG? I suspect LTP is treated like WP which in my experience is bugger all recognition at most touchpoints

    Problems Using Qantas Pass

    Probably the special character. Some sites limit which you can use and may not tell you which are acceptable. Often it is the period "." that is not allowed

    UM ["Unaccompanied Minor"] removed from JQ Flight

    If you book with Webjet do you ring Webjet to find out what the carrier's policy is? Policies regarding carriage are with the operating carrier, not the booking agent. Remember the father was originally to travel with the children and the mother arranged to have him removed from the booking and...

    Qantaslink fees on connecting J fares

    I experience this too. Even domestic, where there may be a business sale such as SYD-MEL for $450 (and ARM-SYD is around $170-200) but adding on the QLink economy only sector then bumps up the fare to $1300+. I get around it by buying two fares, and leaving sufficient time for transfer in case...

    What elite status benefit have you never been able to actually use?

    As a QF WP for several years, I've never had a classic reward seat released on request. Ever. Either international or domestic, and I only request one seat and not during school holidays and there is I class available. I've never used extra baggage allowance as I don't take extra baggage...

    "Although Ms Johnson is no longer out of pocket for the double-debit payments, she believes she is entitled to lifetime Gold Status in Qantas’ Frequent Flyer Program." hahaaaahahaaaa <wipes tear> Good lord, entitled to lifetime Gold? If she had asked for one year it may have been reasonable but...

    Spice bar at Melbourne Qantas Domestic Business Lounge

    Enjoyed the pork but no chili was added by default. Visited the condiments section:) Mel J is definitely a cut above Syd for food, the latter still hasn't brought back the juicer at breakfast :( Interesting addition to the toasted sandwich options here at Mel ... now can do toasted wraps!
