Thanks for your reply! Just to clarify, I'm flying overnight from PER-SYD, arriving 6:15am. Then I'm going SYD-CNS and CNS-KIX same day (as in, not leaving the airport at all, and baggage won't be kept overnight)

Hey there! I've booked an award ticket PER-SYD overnight in J (QF), SYD-CNS following morning in Y (QF), CNS-KIX the same afternoon in 'J' (JQ). I believe my overall ticket is a 'business reward', but with the SYD-CNS sector in Y due to no availability. Three quick questions: 1) If availability...

I didn't know this thread existed! 1) Looking to be guested in: - Sun 11 Dec - PER domestic QF J lounge - On JQ979 departing 2340 to Cairns - Party of 6 (but happy for 2 to be guested please) 2) Looking to be guested in: - Mon 12 Dec - CNS domestic QC - On JQ015 departing 1135 to Osaka (but...

Hi all, Over the last few years I've had good availability and success with using Optiontown to upgrade my AirAsiaX flights (predominately PER-KUL). However recently I've noticed that their upgrade option doesn't show up any results for any of my upcoming flights. A message to Optiontown only...

Ahh I thought I read somewhere on this forum there is a special exception for red-eye flights from Perth but I could be mistaken as it's not published anywhere.

That's referring to Virgin Australia Lounge members (i.e. people who have purchased lounge membership, but flying in economy). If you are flying Business, then that statement doesn't apply to you and you follow what's in the table! EDIT: Too quick for me Milefest haha

Don't you also get arrival J lounge access in SYD when coming off red-eye flights from PER?

Hey there, for future reference: - Select 'Business' from the drop down menu if traveling in Business - Select the airline whom you are flying with (e.g. VA) - See that in Sydney you have access to the AirNZ lounge except for VA29 which is the Etihad lounge :)

There were a whole lot of Business award seats CHC-BNE in January 2017 - was checking over a period of three weeks, I got my ANZ Reward points transferred (15%) bonus, and the very day they got credited (yesterday), all the availability has disappeared! Very annoyed, but I understand that's...

PER to CNS is also on JQ - it's booked on the same ticket. So you mean JQ don't through-check luggage from Perth to Osaka then, even on the same itinerary?

How about the domestic Qantas Club? We arrive from Perth at 6am and depart again at 11:35am. It would be nice to rest and freshen up in the QC before going over to the international terminal, especially since we also are traveling with friends in economy (which they can then gain access with a...

I paid 57,600 points for the whole route. The economy price for the whole route is 28,800 (exactly half). It's my understanding that for mixed class redemptions, you pay the full rate of the higher class?

Hey there, I've booked a Jetstar award ticket in 'Business' for Perth to Osaka via Cairns. However, the Perth to Cairns leg is in economy (as only Cairns-Osaka on the 787 has business). Given the business redemption price covers the whole route, do you think I would have much success in asking...

Damn.. 4hr 35 min from HND and 4hr 50 min from NRT (not that they fly F from there). Can anyone think of any alternatives that will give me guesting rights? Main reason is J has no guesting rights and my friends are traveling in Economy. And even if it doesn't work out, we can still use the...

Hi everyone, My question is based off this excerpt on the OW website: If I am traveling from HND to PER through HKG (on an award booking), and - HND to HKG is in F - HKG to PER is in J Would I still be able to use the F lounges while in transit in HKG? Thanks :)

UPDATE: Due to issues with my Velocity account, I was given $500 in travel bank instead :)

VA697 (MEL-PER) on 9 Dec 2015. Finally got 'the business' after being downgraded PER-MEL. Starter: Vietnamese chicken salad with toasted cashews Main: Braised short rib with dukkah spiced carrots and broad beans on wasabi mustard and coriander potatoes Both were delicious! Beats the last...

I am on flight VA 696 PER-MEL departing tonight, which was downgraded to a 737 yesterday. Last night VA called me to inform me of the change in product, and offered me $250 in travel bank + 30,000 points (didn't get the 2nd option). The thing is, I'm on an award ticket which cost 33,800 points...

PER-MEL VA696 red-eye flight tomorrow night has been downgraded from A330 to 737 :( Was looking forward to two hours of sleep. Oh well!

Oh well! At the very least, we can visit the international business lounge before QF93 for a wake-up shower (with the AA 30 day membership), and the final leg will still be a treat. Thanks everyone for your help :)
