    [Rumor] Qantas exiting from oneworld {unlikely}

    That'd be interesting, considering Virgin Australia's tie up with Singapore Airlines. LOL. Would QF joining *A take precedence over Virgin's "deal" with SIA? Maybe Qantas will start their own Alliance, I'm surprised that Emirates didn't join OW, that would've been massive for every OW Airline...

    Qantas Ceasing 747 Transcon Services (Again)

    747 pulled from SYD-PER? Hi all, I have a flight in november (QF581), and for some reason it has been changed from a 744 to a 763 instead. Will this be on the new config? I hope so, otherwise I'll complain and get it changed to an A333 out of MEL or an A332 out of Syd (I'm coming from...

    Surely it is now now time to change lounge access rules

    The few times I've been in the F Lounge at Sydney, there has been a reserved sign, which means that we've had to wait like 10 mins on a lovely sofa for a table. The F Lounge Restaurant/Spa should be made larger, with more tables etc, so that more of the premium customers can use it, rather than...

    Just love Aussie pilots - keeps me loving Qantas

    Haha there was an awesome pilot on the 747 from SYD-PER last time I flew it, and his 2 best jokes were: "We'll be flying over the Great Australian Bight, which was named after the Australian Tax System" and "So if everyone can make sure their arms and legs are inside the windows, we're about...

    Citibank Select - Bonus 80k points

    hmm ok, I had a 12500 limit, but had to reduce it to 7500 so that I could get my Home Loan approved :'( *sob. Ah well, I've got the CB Gold on 3.25pts per $ til the end of the year, so I'm not really unhappy.

    Does BPAY with a Citibank Emirates card get treated as a purchase or cash advance?

    Re: Does BPAY with a Citibank Emirates card get treated as a purchase or cash advance exactly. I found this out once I had transferred 10k into the account. (Then realised that I had to find the best way to turn it over) LOL. (I ended up putting 10k on Hawthorn against Greater Western Sydney...

    Citibank Select - Bonus 80k points

    does everyone have the $120k minimum income? Has anyone been approved with a lesser income? I've got a citibusiness gold (which gives me 3.25pts per $ and I'm very happy with it, but once this special (2pts per $ bonus) is over (end of the year) or I reach my points cap), I was hoping to get a...

    Does BPAY with a Citibank Emirates card get treated as a purchase or cash advance?

    Re: Does BPAY with a Citibank Emirates card get treated as a purchase or cash advance holy chit, I'm gonna try this out. I know that paying into Sportsbet through BPAY is counted as a purchase, and I usually transfer into them, so that I can get miles at around 4% (If you hedge your bets...

    Qantas Club Dress Standards...Stubbies, singlet and thongs....What the???

    I usually fly for personal travel, and therefore I'm usually wearing denim shorts, or for comfort sake, Basketball shorts, and a t-shirt, as well as Birkenstock sandals (cost around $140 a pop). I've usually paid (not really) good money to get to Platinum, and therefore if I wanna wear those...

    "Qantas plots response to free Virgin Australia upgrades"

    as a person who flys Business every time (6ft9in and 180kg, don't really fit in Economy), I would have to say that it'd be nice to have some other benefits, increasing the amount of points given to platinums or even giving 50% status bonus for status credits or similar. that'd be awesome

    QF Domestic cabin refurb, new seats etc

    Re: Multi-million dollar Qantas upgrade - Eggplant economy and charcoal business Looks interesting, I don't use IFE anyway so I wonder if it'd be more comfortable than the A332s

    QF Domestic cabin refurb, new seats etc

    Re: Multi-million dollar Qantas upgrade - Eggplant economy and charcoal business Because the 787-8s are too small, QF already have lots of 737s, and want to give the 787-8s to Jetstar. Getting the A330-200s from Jetstar will be good. If only Boeing pulled their finger out and actually...

    Citibusiness gold rewards points to QFF points

    Just to clarify with everyone, The CB Gold earns 1.25 Citirewards pts per $. Then when you wanna credit these to Qantas, it is redeemed at 1:1. So essentially you're getting 1.25 QF points per $. With the Citibank Platinum, you can only either enrol in QF Direct Earn, which is $1 per QF...
