    SIM Card for Asia and USA

    I would strongly recommend FlexiRoamX.. works in pretty much all countries, with yearly data expiry and US$30/GB Also is a sticker that sticks over your SIM so you can software switch between them and not actually have to change sims (which is generally great except that you lose access to your...

    Qantas new website messed up?

    Broken for me as well in Chrome, works in FireFox.. so I cleared my cookies and the first time I got "you have been logged out for security" once clicking your account.. I wasn't actually and second try it worked. So most likely they have a bug in their new code that gets upset with old...

    Digital Departure Card at BNE

    I asked a staff member this when departing last week.. her response was technically "no comment" but you know.. I think they want to get rid of them but legally can't right now. I failed to drop one once (missed the box) and yeah. Also I'm fairly sure the money declaration is just a...

    ANZ QFF card earn rates enhanced™

    Re: ANZ QFF/Rewards card earn rates enhanced™ Not surprised as this was clearly a leader in the point department but I am disappointed the points cap will hit me hard, doubly so with no higher earning AMEX. i also heavily use Apple Pay (90% of the time) which now many smaller banks have will...

    Qantas Boeing 787-9 premium economy seat

    Looks pretty revolutionary to me, that kick up to cradle you when sleeping looks like exactly what I'd like. I am keen to try this out on my next long haul, super especially if it's PER-LHR The price sometimes really sucks though, should absolutely not be more than double economy in my view.

    Changes to VedaScore

    My score also dropped: from 800s to 700s (Very Good => Good). What's interesting is that previously I had 3 upwards for "Type of credit currently or previously applied for".. now I have two downwards, one each for "Type of second last credit application" and "Type of historical credit". Second...

    NH Hotels - "Best Price Guarantee" = NO GUARANTEE

    Re: Rumour:[Denied by RR] Qantas to ban JQ SYD-MEL pax from F lounges & send to J lou sounds like total cough to me, the converted currency is clearly a convenience and no guarantee and even specifically stated

    Qantas and paid exit row seats that keep getting removed from booking

    Reality is probably they can't get you the exit seat any more - it's sold - total fail but what can you do. However not being able to give a refund is a total joke. I would call again and escalate again.

    QF Upgrade Success - discussion thread

    Though it pops up a message saying no upgrades available right now, click OK to register.. I've never actually seen an instant upgrade available. So you have to wait and T-24 hours or sometimes a couple hours earlier they will *SMS* you the result (no e-mail) - you can also check on the website...

    Qantas Safety Video - 2017

    Seems a bit long (1m longer), maybe too relaxed and the voices aren't all that authorative / almost disinterested? Not quite sure if that's a good or a bad thing.. feels a bit like people will lose interest though compared to the old one. Still, it's really clever and builds on the theme last...

    WARNING Budget Direct Annual Policy

    Side note.. on this topic, many policies also require you to declare medical conditions of not only yourself, but any relatives that may fall ill while you are away and thus be covered under the policy. that fineprint really is important. my ANZ card insurance also disclaims accidents that...

    Can't book domestic AA via QFF??

    My mistake. I've managed to book MCO-JFK before on points without issue. Don't know enough ot help you here though sadly.

    Can't book domestic AA via QFF??

    there are problems with this flight specifically, i wouldn't try and book it simply because even fi you manage to book it Qantas often refuse to let people board. If you search you'll find several threads about it. You can potentially book a proper AA flight however.

    Free checked bag on Air Berlin for QFF Gold?

    From memory there have been discussions and arguments about these policies between airlines, but I think the argument was basically "1 bag" versus more than 1 bag. I would suggest calling and clarifying with them as there did seem to be some carrier interpretation going on and inconsistency...

    Emirates to downgrade 1 daily flight ex Perth from A380 To 777

    That is annoying :( Looks like the 1AM arrival and 6AM departure flights are 77W now. From memory, previously it was actually the evening flight that was 77W before it changes last year. Anyone remember?

    Qantas Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    Re: QF Upgrade Success Rate 2 person success Y-J on QF10 (LHR-DXB) 23-Dec-2015 at T-28 for Gold. Was 3-4 J seats left after my upgrade, only 1 person in F before and after. Good start to the return leg of our Honeymoon, sadly DXB-PER is EK and thus no chance to upgrade. Most annoying.
