    What's your Uber Passenger rating?

    On the rare occasion that I have given feedback to a driver/Uber the response has always been "thanks we have passed this on to the driver". Which makes sense to fix whatever failing I had noted. However I have never heard of any passenger getting feedback that they could use to improve...

    Status matching LeClub

    I don't mind at all! Need a stay within the last 12 months. I have been focusing on Accor with IHG alternate (Plat both) so no GHA stays.... if I had an existing stay on record within the last 12 months I think they would have matched me immediately.

    Hobart - things to do and where to stay

    If there is going to be several AFFers in town at the same (inc yours truly) perhaps it's time for a Hobart AFF gathering? My dates are 13-21 Aug and staying in Hobart near MONA.

    Status matching LeClub

    Has anyone got experience matching Le Club Plat status to GHA Discovery or PGR ? I've applied for both recently and had a straight reject from PGR and something like a challenge from Discovery (stay 1 night and we'll match).

    24 hour delay, non-existent customer service & pithy cost reimbursement

    Reading this thread it seems that QF's strategy of "ignoring customers until they go away" is working. There is such a level of apathy about what little we should expect from QF when things go wrong. Exactly what QF wants. Yes, it's tiresome and frustrating for an individual to battle the...

    Worse than feet on bulkheads

    The existence of this thread and sites like "passenger shame" clearly show that staff rarely take action, hence other pax take matters into their own hands (ie. posting on social media). I can sympathise, it is difficult for staff who know pax in lounges are either J fares or high tier (or...

    Delayed flight and poor customer service

    This has long been my issue with QF customer service. All customers are treated as imbeciles and they take offence when you politely enquire about something they have said which an informed person knows is "stretching" the truth. In short, due to many such experiences, i concur with OP here...

    QF now charging WP for all Exit Row economy seats [CL/WP1 exempt]

    EconX on VA is hardly implemented (patchy, very VA) but when actually available, then for WPs its beautiful. Quite the opposite of QF's punishment of high tier FFs discussed in this thread.

    Etihad Posts $1.87 Billion Loss

    Why do these articles always ignore the obvious? EY has horrible customer service and treats pax with utter disdain. It's hard to maintain a profit when former pax tell all of their friends to avoid the airline. The policies and reputation of the transit country aren't the best either. No one...

    QF now charging WP for all Exit Row economy seats [CL/WP1 exempt]

    For exit rows, "unconfirmed" could refer to the need for a suitability check on the day of travel - both willing and able (OLCI or kiosk ask the question) and physically capable, either self assessed and affirmed by the pax or verified by the gate agent. Has anyone seen the flag status on a...

    Virgin lounge internet is a joke

    I gave up on VA lounge internet long ago. It was always horrible. Even on rare occasions when decent speed was possible the constant drop-outs would make the user experience very poor. *not to mention the woeful security.
