    The demise of Qantas international flights

    oneworld also presumably drives some traffic to QF domestic. I wouldn't like to see them leave.

    The demise of Qantas international flights

    QF currently has three planes sitting on the ground every day at LAX for a long, long time. Would you like to see one of those planes (most likely the 747) continue on to somewhere from LAX? Where would it be able to get to in time to get back to LAX in time to continue on to Australia, and...

    AspireSydney Consortium Proposes Fort Denison Dual-Berth Overseas Passenger Terminal

    Re: AspireSydney Consortium Proposes Fort Denison Dual-Berth Overseas Passenger Termi My thoughts exactly. I couldn't figure it out from the document. Perhaps the northern end of the runway would require trimming as a result of something else that they had planned in terms of road or rail...

    Booking on AA USA Website

    A quick question for the wise heads out there. What is the current situation regarding making and paying for bookings using the AA USA Website? Will that website readily accept an Australian credit card? On a dummy booking, I see that "Australia' appears in the drop down menu under "Billing...

    QF to wet lease EK 777 to DFW???

    If true, do we think that, whatever the specifics of the lease arrangements that eventuate, QF would have to operate 10-abreast Y seating in any EK 777, or would they have the flexibility to reconfigure the aircraft (which would also give them the chance to addess the lack of W seating on the EK...

    Earn bonus points on Gift Vouchers - new and improved for Xmas.

    I was experiencing the same. I purchased a voucher yesterday evening and accessed the booking reference a couple of hours later (before any email acknowledgement from Qantas). The booking had a message saying that the voucher could not be redeemed online, and that I had to contact telephone...

    Qantas / Emirates tie up (Partnership inc. Codeshare, Status)

    I was about to mention that another interesting thing to come out of the note is that a draft determination is expected on 20 December! I hadn't picked up on that date until I read the note.

    Bulkhead seats on the A380

    It is a question that I am considering at the moment too! It has just ticked over T-80 for an upcoming A380 flight and 50A/B/C are all free. (In fact, A/B/C are all free in rows 50-53.) Does the fact that all of 50A/B/C are available at the moment indicate that the bassinet is unlikely to be...

    Qantas to keep FRA till October 2013; BA Singapore codeshare to continue

    Once everything gets up and running fully, however, QF1 and QF2 won't be the only options for flying between SYD and DXB (although they will be the only options on QF metal). The EK-operated QF flights may very well provide shorter connections to NCL and elsewhere.

    Qantas / Emirates tie up (Partnership inc. Codeshare, Status)

    I don't think that the following has been mentioned elsewhere in this thread, but apologies if it has: the submissions have started to flow in to the ACCC in relation to the QF/EK application, including from Singapore Airlines, Virgin Australia, Air New Zealand, Jumpjet Airlines, and the...
