This is a very common scam in airports all over the world, the fake taxi drivers will try to solicit people in the baggage claim area. There's lots of warnings in the news and travel sites etc

I'm not far off being a Qantas points millionaire, the points are easy to collect but almost impossible to use (at least for international Business or First anyway).

How did you get a 650 rollover, they only let me rollover 500 of them! Also I've just come here to say that I'm an idiot and booked 4 QF domestic flights in December + January (and not cheap despite being "red e-deals") and I forgot to use the $50 voucher on any of them. I wish they'd sent a...

I just received a CheckMyTrip notification about schedule changes on QR988, but I can't actually see any changes on my booking. Nothing from QR directly yet.

50 points for me, for a card I cancelled 7 years ago when I moved to London! Nice of them to own the mistake and make it right, though would be nicer if they'd thrown in some extra points as interest!

Is that still T-72 ?

Glad to hear they got it sorted for you finally! If only you could ask for direct contact details and speak to them everytime!!

Thanks all - will book the later flight and if there's no delays at customs/baggage I'll ask very nicely if I can be moved earlier space permitting, hopefully they will have discretion to allow it.

Ah well that's a definitive answer then - thanks. Guess I'll just book the later flight to be safe, and if everything's on time I'll just have to 'enjoy' the domestic lounge for a bit longer than normal!

Am I able to buy a ticket on 2 flights (or more) on the same day, knowing that I'll only use one of them and be a no-show for the other? I will be landing at SYD international at 18:25 and need to make a separate booking from SYD to MEL. I'm considering buying a ticket on the 20:30 and also on...

This is wild, I've only just seen this (haven't been in Aus for a while) and very surprised. I'm sure it's going to confuse a lot of tourists. Self-service check-in kiosks are the norm around the world, and are normally multi-airline kiosks that cater for the multiple airlines flying out of that...

That's certainly out of date, I've been in there recently around 5pm while flying BA out of T3. The Qantas website seems to be correct, as 9:05pm is the current departure time of QF2 LHR-SIN-SYD. This becomes 8:40pm when the UK ends daylight savings, so it might close a little earlier then...

I've had similar challenges with a couple of mine, as it seems for manual claims they just assume it was Discount Economy instead of actually checking the fare class details. I resorted to emailing back a link to the 'Frequent Flyer Earn Categories' on the Qantas website and even took a...

I think I'm down to just 2 BA flights missing from my account now, both from July. But it's been a real saga having to continually chase Qantas to get all the missing points and status credits awarded. So many emails that don't get answered, an online claims form that seems to do nothing, and...

In slightly good news, I've now had a BA flight from July credited after a phone call last week to follow up on why my online claims and emails from months ago (with requested boarding passes and proof of travel letters from BA) hadn't yet been reviewed. The agent seemed really helpful, asked...

I agree, but those once cheap RyanAir & EasyJet fares have mostly disappeared since the pandemic, and airlines (BA in particular) were denying EU261 compensation claims, telling customers the COVID-19 pandemic was an "extraordinary circumstance" which meant they were not entitled to EU...

If the young girl was an unaccompanied minor, I think there's a rule about where they can sit and who they can sit next to, and perhaps why the FA was paying close attention to her and promptly spotted her move.

It sends a message to the other journalists in the room, they won't want to risk the same happening to them so they'll avoid asking any similarly tough questions.

Still better than where the UK and European airlines have ended up though. Paying extra to have an empty middle seat next to you is basically the definition of what passes for Business Class on short-haul narrowbody flights in Europe.

Received my upgrade from Silver to Gold today, Gold through to 31 Dec 2023.
