    Is Alan Joyce doing a good job?

    I think the one thing that could be laid at AJ's feet is the fact that he hasn't addressed the problem that Qantas now faces 4 or 5 years ago.

Government problem High wages: average much more than competition because of Union power. Government problem...

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

But, boarding from the First Class Lounge in in Dubai I was upgraded to F. Partner was not so happy with that but I took it. I...

    FF Account just hacked and almost 300,000 points taken

    I've been thinking for a long, long time now that Qantas needs to upgrade its security system in terms of the 4 digit (number) pin. Nowadays, from my experience at least, you usually have to have a pin with 8 digits including at least one number and it doesn't include part of your name. Q I...

    Why is Alan Joyce still Qantas' CEO?

    I think that some of the things that Qantas needs to do just can't be done with the Qantas Sale Act in place. EH

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    I'm not sure of the multiple benefits trippin. I have been P1 since its inception and obviously not been using them, though I have been able to get a couple of good classic awards and always good seating. I'm missing out it seems but I will resolve for New Year to use P1 better. EH

    Hey Qantas, why is it that ....?

    Hey Qantas why is it that because I have booked my son to go from PER to LHR via DXB this Saturday I cannot send him as an unaccompanied minor? From what I have been able to gather it seems that because I booked him through Qantas but they are Emirates flights no-one can take responsibility for...
