    2 pax on one PNR one 'fly ahead' other stay on original flight?????

    I had a similar scenario - although not quite fly ahead. I had to fly on a certain day, and the other person on the booking had to fly later. I rang the call centre and they split the booking onto two PNR's and it was all sorted in 10 minutes.

    New A330's

    Despite the negative nellys on here carrying on about inconsistent product blah blah blah... Yes ok i agree getting PE instead of J is a big issue. That should never happen except in an emergency - Even general operation issues shouldn't be a good enough reason. That said J on the 737 is...

    New A330's

    Well i got luck this morning and scored one of the new planes. Bit of a review for you. What can i say - bloody impressive. I thought the previous version of business class was very well done, but with the new planes it just takes things to a whole new level. The seat was pretty dam comfortable...

    Shop and earn double points promotion - anyway to get the points without spending $$?

    Re: Shop and earn double points promotion - anyway to get the points without spending I've claimed the Quickflix trial back when it was around 700 points from memory. Followed the steps, ordered a dvd and returned/cancelled prior to the end of the trial period. Didn't cost me a cent and the...

    New A330's

    Just re-checked my flights at the end of the week. Up until mid last week it was showing 2 x 2 x 2 - but i was unable to do seat selection for some reason. Looks like they have updated the maps or maybe changed aircraft. New maps are showing 2 x 3 x 2 on the PER to MEL leg, and 2 x 2 x 2 on the...

    Air Australia (From 17/2 suspended ops)

    There was something i read in an article earlier about scoopon having flown a representative there to assist with re-booking on other airlines and the likes. If thats actually the case, then good on them. Nice to see a company going over and above in the customer service area. It's a real shame...

    Use of the toilets at the front

    I had the reverse happen too me... I was flying the new J product on Virgin. I must have mis heard the announcement RE toilets because i thought they said one at the front, or two at the back. I used one of the rear ones a couple of times before the one of the stewardess's greeted me by name...

    Mystery Flights are back as a holiday!

    I would have thought any decrease in people buying regular fares would be covered by an increase in people flying who couldn't otherwise afford too. I mean the reality is if your going to take a holiday and buy regular fares you generally have a destination in mind, hotels booked...

    Mystery Flights are back as a holiday!

    Thinking about it.. is there really any way they could run a mystery flight at a loss. I mean its a seat filled that otherwise would go empty. The cost of managing the service (staff time, onboard costs, fuel etc) would be minimal and surely covered by $150 - $200 cost? Given there's no fixed...

    Book your J rewards before 18th Jan, they are going up!

    I changed a J fare which was points plus pay for no cost either cash or points. But the fares were the same. Pretty sure your responsible to pay the difference in fare costs

    Ask The Pilot

    In the event of something like the war in Afghanistan what's the protocol for that? I would assume there would have been aircraft in that airspace or entering that airspace or with flight plans through that airspace. Who would have been giving ATC directions? From what i understand the Kabul...
