Will be flying Alaska Air from Anchorage (via Portland) to LAX then QF to Melbourne. Separate tickets and 4.5 hours layover so fingers crossed it’s enough time. I believe I’m flying into terminal 6 and assume will need to collect bag and walk to terminal B. My question is what is the...

I got the same email today and was scratching my head.

Yes it has, thank goodness

I just did my ESTA application today and it was quite stressful to be honest. Some of the questions are rather strange, I had to enter a current or prior employer which was a compulsory question and no option to answer that you are retired. Going on an Alaskan cruise in July which was booked...

I got one about opinions on various car brands and after answering about 20 questions rating the different brands I was told that I wasn’t a match and only got 15 points which I thought was rather scummy.

Agree with what others have posted. Another issue related to CR availability is not being able to purchase one way sale fares on international routes. Instead Qantas rips you off by only selling higher priced flexible fares. Yes I know that J fares are hard to find (although as a platinum FF i...

My status credits total was incorrect both on the App and website today. Shows 1016 when it should be 1096 (80sc difference) but flight from Wednesday for 80 sc is showing in the transaction list. Called Qantas and agent told me she can see my sc total as 1096. Strange. Will see if it updates...

No trout tartare in the Melbourne F lounge today so had to have the usual salt and pepper squid which was good as always.

Thank you, have added GreenPower 🤞

Anyone had issues getting their green tick after switching gas to Red Energy? I switched on 21 Nov and received email from Red Energy in December confirming the switch. Terms and conditions say green tick will be received within 40 days of the switch but QFF are demanding a red energy invoice...

I’ve done an annual trip to Fiji using points for the past 3 years and as a WP have always been given access to the First lounge without any issues (despite traveling on an FJ flight) so you should be okay.

I read the article in the Age this morning. He makes some good points and in my view public servants and politicians should not be allowed to accept a Chairman’s Lounge membership (or fly business class on a 1 hour flight!). However it seems very one sided, the Liberal politicians accept these...

Swapped my car and home insurance to Qantas earlier this year to get the bonus points. Literally the day after I reversed my car out of the garage before the garage door had fully opened and damaged both the garage door and car! Claimed for a new garage door on the Qantas home insurance. Found...

Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere but can someone please confirm if flights booked as classic + earn any more status credits for Points Club passengers than classic award flights?

I was in the old CL Lounge on Monday morning at around 9am. Haven’t flown out of Adelaide for a few years so I actually thought it was the new Business Lounge 😀. WP traveling in Economy with one guest. Thought the lounge looked pretty good, not sure why they need a new one. I noticed that in...

Saturday 25 May QF 157 MEL-AKL 18.30 departure. Ate in the First lounge and wasn’t hungry so didn’t eat much of my meal (can’t even recall what it was) however what was memorable and not in a good way was the lack of service. No drinks before dinner and no top ups or after dinner drinks offered...

I’ve had Qantas extras health insurance for a couple of years and I’m pretty happy with it. Get 65% back on most claims. Previous health insurance (AHM) would give me back $30 for a $100 remedial massage which was a joke. Also very easy to submit claims via the App and track claim limits.

Is it just me or does anyone else think the spa treatment times are getting shorter and shorter? Last couple of times I’ve been there and had a treatment, it lasted for around 15 minutes or less which hardly seemed like it was worth bothering.

I’ve booked a business fare MEL to SYD for $450 on 25 January 2025 (my ff year ends in January). Not bad value for 80 SC. Will use this booking as placeholder for another booking or can cancel for no penalty.

The multi city search engine is hopeless, even for a basic NZ trip. Can see the flights and select seats etc then at the confirmation stage get an error. Trying to get through to Qantas to book over the phone is hopeless even for Platinum. Over an hour wait then they hang up on you.
