Hi, I'm looking to transport a custom piece of metalwork with me on a Qantas flight JNB-SYD-MEL. It'll be boxed, and its dimensions will be 90cm x 90cm x 15cm. It's weight will be 30kg or less. I've tried contacting Qantas to ask about this (both email and call), and they've not been overly...

Oh I should have added - I have already booked a one-way Economy Flex ticket during DSC, and I was going to just do a change on that or use it as a flight credit, so at least I'll get DSC on the outbound journey in Jan. So going to a TA might not be an ideal option for me.

Hi, I'm looking to book a return fare, JNB-SYD, departing Jan 2026, returning Sep 2026. Given the Sep 2026 flights won't be released until around September this year, I can't book yet. However, there is I fare class available on the Jan 2026 flight, which I what I want to book into. When booked...

So - had something very unexpected. I requested 2 x J for MEL-LAX, 3 outbound dates late Jan, and 2 return dates in mid-Feb. All 5 came back approved. Never had that happen before - the Classic Reward robot must be in a particularly good mood today :)

Hi - just wondering if there's and news on the PER-JNB route that's meant to launch mid next year? When will the schedules be published and fares be available for purchase? Thanks, Josh

No, of course I don't have a need. I just want the "full experience", haha! They offered this in LAX when I flew F from there, just wondering if something similar was offered in SYD.

Hi all, I'm shortly about to fly QF First from SYD-LAX, and have a few questions: 1/ It's a classic reward, so will I still get a First host calling me the day before to book in a spa treatment? 2/ I have a connection from MEL-SYD (with ample layover). Will there be an offer for a First host to...

100% agree on both points. It's so slow and drawn out. One watch was enough for me - this video is going to be an annoyance and chore every time I fly. Definitely will have to remember to pack my own noise cancelling headphones each time to drown out this sorry excuse for a safety video

Awesome - thanks for such a detailed reply. Looks like there's nothing really "special" to look forward to that's much different from J, apart from the bed/bedding. Appreciate it!

Hi all, So, while I've done QF J across the pacific a few dozen times, I've never managed to score myself a seat in the F cabin. Finally managed to do that in a few weeks time - for LAX-SYD - and I'm wondering what I can expect. A few questions: I'm a WP, so I've had access to the F lounge for...

So - I was at the Green Tier event in Healesville a couple of weeks ago. I spoke to one of the guys from Qantas for a good while, asking him about the whole tier. One thing that I will repeat here, however, is that the issue where you re-achieve your 5 leaves for the year, but you're not...

Yeah, I totally understand that they need to move seats all the time for operational reasons, but it's the blatant lying about the reason that really pisses me off. Why can't they just be upfront about it?

Hi all, I've had a situation happen a couple of times now, where my seat has been changed either during online checkin (T-24) or in the few days leading up to a International J flight (trans-Pacific). When I ask the staff at the airport why I was moved, their line is "the seat you allocated...

Hi all, So since Covid, I've had a lot more success in securing J Classic Awards by calling the WP help desk and having seats requested, as opposed to playing the Y->J upgrade lottery. I have a question regarding other's experience doing this. Sometimes the requests will come back effectively...

Hi all, I was just reading a review of the current F Lounge in Sydney, and it got me thinking - what was the F Lounge experience like in SYD and MEL prior to these two lounges launching in 2007? I only became WP in 2008, so I never was able to access them. Does anyone have any good memories of...

Hey, just wondering if anyone knows when the F checkin at MEL will reopen? The F lounge has been open for a few months now, but checking in for an AKL flight a couple weeks ago, I had to go to the J counter. Agent had no info as to when it might be open. Heading to LAX on Friday and it would be...

Passes now gone :)

Hi there. I have 4x QP passes that will expire end of July through start of Sept. PM me if you're able to use them and would like me to transfer them. I'll post here once they're gone.

I think my QF friend can only tell the capacity via their staff travel website, so it's not access to the full details in the reservation system.

Yes, I'm asking the same question - the flights are practically full. It could be a business decision based on other factors, of course. But the fact it's full doesn't line up with the other "zeroing" scenarios I'm reading in other threads. @williamsf1 - where did you get the info that PY is...
