I can guess why they don't, but it would make life so much easier if Qantas OLCI would show when the system has "hard blocked" the seat next to you. (My opinion is - the best seat is the one with no-one next to you.)

Personally, I think American Airlines is in serious trouble. Qantas obviously has a strategic partnership with this company, which will impact QF if AA goes out of business. I figure (with so little knowledge about these things however) that at some stage after Labor Day (in the USA) we will...

So can we assume, from that schedule, that we are days away from an announcement of a daily PER-SIN red eye style flight? More over, will it involve "combo fare" style 3K/(VF not so necessary) connections in SIN, but with - baggage transfer, T1 & QP (or *Lounge, as per my latest demand) ?

I don't confess to being an expert in this area. However one assumes that an option in a redundancy package might be for the employee to - leave immediately and be paid out for the correct notice time, OR to continue to work until the end of the period. Generally, in highly motivated, small...

I have heard that Qantas staff at, at least two domestic Qantas Clubs have been issued with redundancy payouts through the end of next month. No prizes for guessing the one that I am most up in arms about… So, here is my demand – Australian Airlines (mk2) failed (in part) due to Qantas...

Perhaps there is a technology limitation, as lounge entry sales are linked to a Velocity Account rather than a PNR (whereas Carbon Offset & Insurance are PNR linked)?

Basically, this is how it happens (but as per Serfty’s comment, you do need to be a member of Velocity) http://www.virginblue.com.au/thelounge/passes/ . Two things spring to mind, that I might comment on, after reading this post – “use the lounge before and after”. This is how an Admirals Club...

MSNBC reporting UA "the worst airline" "Just 29 months removed from the longest, costliest, and least-effective bankruptcy in aviation history, the nation's second-largest airline is once again facing a financial abyss. United's first-quarter net loss of $537 million was more than its two main...

Downright unAustralian not to ignore stupid rules!:D

Checked Bag Fees at DJ This course of action is also one step forward two steps back in their campaign to reposition themselves as a “new world carrier”. I don’t think anyone really gets what a “NWC” is, so most people tend to interpret a positioning for Virgin Blue via Qantas’ proposition...

:p But they were! I don't know anything about their internal business structures, so am unable to make any argument as to whether they systemically still are! :rolleyes:But then again, next breath; I'm prepared to argue that Jetstar & Qantas are the same airline. LOL

Indeed, all(?) QF tickets are currently issued with a 12 month validity period, from date of purchase. I phrase it this way, as there is a distinct difference to how TT & JQ ticketing works. Their tickets are valid until the end of time or the airline, which ever comes first (or your flight...

Yes, but different seating, in flight entertainment and staff selection does! e.g. Virgin Blue - Premium Economy Live2air No gimmicky staff announcements (although present on many Virgin Blue flights, but only on domestic routes that you might see a Pacific Blue aircraft sub for anyway)...

Indeed, plus http://www.qantas.com.au/flightinfo/dyn/pdas the qantas website lists its top routes as - To be fair, I think Qantas is more interested in what Tiger will do in South East Queensland, rather than Air New Zealand. And I would probably agree. (Although OOL remains a OneWorld...

I think it’s worth noting the domestic fee difference* between JQ & TT for baggage – ADVISING CHECKED BAGS REQUIRED DURING BOOKING · JQ +$10 =20KG (DIFFERNT FARE TYPE) · TT +$5 =15KG (ADD-ON SERVICE) DECIDING CHECKED BAGS ARE REQUIRED AFTER BOOKING, BUT WELL BEFORE FLIGHT, USING ONLINE...

within 6 months - this should read within original ticket validity period. Sorry I couldn't simply edit/change the post anymore.

View from 11D on ZK-JTP Probably like many others, I sit back and think - the engineers should probably get a fair go, after all the company is going gang busters profit-wise the world economy looks like its heading for hard times, so corporate belt tightening is probably a good thing jeeze...

:lol:A Star Class status run of course! But remember, no meal on - domestic segment international A330 flights, just a chockie & coffee!:)

I agree, it’s no huge issue, but two small ones – · Account communication confusion, as information seems to be updated in two processes(?); automatically (by the computer at the end of the month) and manually (by a human assessing the account sometime into the new month). Which produces these...
