I'm hoping it's a YMMV situation, but I'm 3/3 on encountering the issue in the last few months.

That often no longer works IME. It seems the system recognizes that an agent added the segment and then won't allow you to finalize it online.

Where..??..??

Re: AA Platinum Challenge & flying with them Interesting that you had poor service - the QF crews on that flight are usually top notch and AA in economy is not know for "service". Wifi - United suffers the same issues on ex-Australia flights. On flights to Australia both airlines seem to be...

I stand by my comment Pushka (although I never said it was directed at you). I'm sure you would agree that there is way to much "fanboi-ism" that goes on across many many threads on AFF where too many people "won't hear a bad word about EK/QF/VA/JQ/Fred Perry/the 77W" or whatever their...

Re: AA Platinum Challenge & flying with them Which QF flight were you on? In economy?

I'm in the country on that day - but not Sydney.... wrong day....

Why I bother is beyond me... however... 1/ Medhead - alcohol is halal for Penegal also - I think you know this; 2/ Enough with the fanbois bullsh$t around here eh..... Some of you love EK (or QF or Pauline Hanson for that matter) like it's the proverbial best-thing-since-sliced-bread. You...

Without wanting to sound rude in any way - so please don't take it that way..... You need to spend some time reading up on this site. For many folks here - it has taken years of actual bum-in-seat flying to learn the level of knowledge that exists amongst members here. You have excellent...

As has been mentioned - Scott Wilson is the GM now. He was previously the GM at Doubletree CNS after John went back to looking after just the Hilton. Scott is very experienced and believes strongly in the personal touch - which regulars at Hilton CNS know that the staff try and apply to regular...

You been drinkin?

"Mileage Running" in its purest form was literally getting on a cheap flight - and amassing thousands of frequent flyer points (far outweighing the cost of the airfare). For example - a $300 roundtrip fare from the USA to Asia and earning say 40 thousand frequent flyer points (which if...

Actually - the person you describe - "sign on bonuses (and then closing the card the second the points earning requirements have been met), or other methods which will amass points..." in fact earns the airline a TON of money. These folks are immensely profitable for QFF. (now - they may not be...

Pretty much all the airport precinct hotels are much of a muchness. The prices are ridiculous fairly often lately - I actually has a great stay at the Holiday Inn Express recently and I was pretty darn impressed. I've stayed at the Hilton, Four Points, Westin and a few others - I would...

Slight clarification necessary.... Someone who amasses mountains of points via credit card promotions is actually a VERY valuable customer to the frequent flyer program. In fact, in many cases a credit-card earner with no status may be more valuable than a platinum member. (of course a weekly...

The relaxation suite is definitely a much nicer room than the relaxation room. Although both are very nice and decent rooms. The relaxation suite is my preferred room. Like a comment above - I don't care for the junior suite too much.

JB - they were in the hold for at least 10 mins or so prior to both dumping AND communicating with the cabin. I only noticed because I had the map on the screen, and had noticed we had leveled at 8,000 and I was patiently waiting for both the seatbelt sign to be extinguished and also the wifi...

They turned SE and went into that holding pattern at 8,000 for about 30 mins before saying anything or starting to dump fuel.... I had suspected something was up and that we'd be returning, but no one else noticed. I believe the flight crew were trying to visually confirm impact. And yes -...

Meh.... What fuss....

I just want to say that Red Roo continues to be a GREAT help - and a fantastic asset to us here. Regardless of how QF is now handling Red Roo - it's great that we have them!!!
