    Mixing Qantas Voucher and FF Points

    The upgrade is a request, not a guarantee, and unless you have any status with Qantas there is a good chance you won't get an upgrade. If you want to use both voucher and points to ensure you fly a premium cabin (at least on the longest legs) I would suggest looking at business class reward...

    Points Variation

    There are notable differences between the two fare types. For a regular fare where you pay for it in points instead of cash, you receive frequent flyer points and status credits just like the cash fare in that category. For a Classic Reward - with the ribbon icon in the top right - you don't...

    Difference in Economy Classic Reward pricing

    This. It also explains the difference in taxes where the first assumes transit at SYD but second is a stopover and factors in an extra security screening.

    Qantas extends status extensions until end June 2023 (previously December 2022)

    I had my rollover about 8 weeks after membership year ended. Unless you really need the credits early in your membership year, spare yourself the hassle of calls for the immediate future.

    Famous people seen (or even met) whilst flying or lounging

    Barry from the Living Room was in the MEL J dom lounge around 10am. The lady making gorgeous coffee remarked that "she'd had a Chris and Miguel but not Barry yet" and that Miguel had been 'remarkable'. :) Amanda was mentioned in passing as a dapper lass

    Virgin Australia Discover Gold (Status Match)

    Sent my application last Tuesday and received a rejected application at 2pm today. Did not say why rejected, just that it may be one or more of things in a fairly long list. Since it is the last day I forwarded that email to the promotion email addressing each of the criteria directly. I also...

    Qantas First Lounge in Singapore

    I think the QR lounge is in another terminal to QF's at SIN so if you have a short layover you may not have time to visit it.

    Holidays and Airport 'Chaos' since COVID

    You have to collect bag Fri and check it in on Sat. SYD does not allow through check for next day departures, something like no storage facility when airport is closed over night IIRC

    Free ALL Gold Status for QF Silver or above - also Points Club Plus

    The placement of the semicolon changes this logic. That is, "This offer is available to all Qantas Frequent Flyer members, except Bronze members unless they hold Points Club Plus and/or Chairmans Lounge benefits" would be what you are intepreting. But by putting the semicolon where it is it is...

    Free ALL Gold Status for QF Silver or above - also Points Club Plus

    No not yet, existing Gold but only till 31/12/22 showing on my account today. Wondering if being PCP is an issue as the terms on the offer page say the below which I interpret as all QFF with status above bronze but excluding those with PCP or CL. "This offer is available to all Qantas...

    Qantas Neighbour Free seating: Worth paying for?

    The seat is not ticketed. It is vacant. You simply have a note on your boarding pass that your seat reservation is next to it.

    Qantas Neighbour Free seating: Worth paying for?

    This. You are not buying the seat next to you - that is a comfort seat - you are simply paying to have your seat allocated next to a vacant seat. This is why it is called "neighbour free reservation". The concern I have with allowing people to pay for being seated next to any vacant seats up to...
