    Qantas apologises to frequent flyers with status extensions, lounge passes, points & more reward seats

    May be not a DSC but you can bet there won't be a decent fares sale till December as you have to use these promo vouchers by end November. Probably a twelve days of Xmas sale in early December.

    Qantas Silver benefits

    Points and Credits are two different things. You can't get "status points".

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

    Yeah I am amused at the hotch potch way they have been applying the extensions and other freebies. Some are more ahead than others at different times. The most I've got out of the handouts are the status support the first year; didn't get an extension as just qualified before covid hit in March...

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

    I replied because of the statement that *everyone* with those membership dates got a free extension into 2024 when it is not true. Only eligible people get a free extension for another year. The free extensions are not available to everyone. I was not offered the same extension as I received...

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

    No. Because I retained in my current membership year (ending March 2023) I get that status for the remainder of this year and next, as normal. There is no extension being handed out by Qantas, as in this case I am ineligible for an extension as I continued flying.

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

    Not me. March 2023 renewal, I got "because you flew with us and retained" no extension for you. Like in 2020. However, I should be eligible for 500 credits rollover in April 2023

    Best Australian Lounges?

    even with all those memberships and status you won't have access to any lounges at HVB.

    Qantaslink premium hand luggage

    You can get it tagged at the gate. Great in these times of online check in and HLO.

    Qantas Red Planet

    Invited to do Project WiseOwl and kicked out with only one question: what is my year of birth. Considering I am at what some would call mid-middle age, I guess it still doesn't make me wise enough! :p Easiest 15 points earned.

    Accor ALL Australia & New Zealand 30% Off Winter Sale For Stays August 1 – September 30, 2022 (Book By July 25)

    Wow, this is really restrictive. Book over a few days, only for the next few weeks, not changeable or refundable and minimum 2 night stay. No Mantras in the participating hotels either. Can't make use of it, not even to replace any upcoming flex bookings I have in Aug-Sep.

    What do you want from airport lounges?

    How about not having to argue your entitlement to enter the lounge? ;) 😆

    What do you want from airport lounges?

    - Decent and substantial food options - Clean place to sit with laptop and work; most of those "lounge" chairs with tiny tables are too soft to do this comfortably - good internet - Quiet areas away from large groups and kids running around - Clean toilets

    Point Club Plus - Sharing of Qantas Club membership under consideration

    I hope they do implement this because as it stands PC+ offers little, the only benefits of any interest for someone with status are SCs on reward flights, which PC also offers, and (for me at least) 10% off wine. Gifting the QC pass would make it worthwhile. And I hope they allow friends as not...

    Qantas - Melbourne to Perth Return - Economy Classic Rewards Booking Trouble

    Are you looking for all on the one flight as 4 seats is a third of the QF 737 cabin. Do you have to travel together? Try a couple on one flight, and the others on another even if via a different city.

    I'm in the QF Lounge thread

    So rather than acting on the feedback provided over the last few years, they are hiring people to be there to say "yes, what customers are telling us is correct"? Hopefully improvements do follow and they are not just there to come up with ways to say that "we are sorry we do not meet your...

    How do Hilton treat you as an Elite?

    Yes. Been my experience as Gold for the last few years. Can't remember the amount as haven't been for 1.5 years but as the cold options are good and plentiful I always decline.
