Well here is something interesting. When I tried out the online booking tool for a RTW - it said the flight was over the limit of 34,000 miles for a bus / first flight, even though I was booking a DONE4. As far as I can tell there is no such limit on a Oneworld Explorer. So is this just...

Seems like Julie may not understand what a "tax invoice" actually is in an Australian context.

The point of status credits is to encourage people to fly - esp with QANTAS or on QANTAS code shares. While that remains the point, how would it make sense for QANTAS to sell them ? (Other than in limited circumstances such as topping up if you are just about to miss). QANTAS also needs to...

Generally speaking, if the flight is during the day then I am happy to fly economy, even long distance. So SYD->BKK, SYD-HND, HND->SYD no problem in economy. But overnight I would like a lay down bed. I won't pay for one, but will do a lot of research and fitting around either the find a...

That is right If you are signed in, and can see it, you can book it

Pop on and have a look as far out as you can see right now. I am showing quite good availability in May

If you can see the classic rewards ticket available in the flight, you can book it. They will only show you reward tickets you can book, use the multi-city booking took and say you are flexible with dates to be shown what classic rewards are available for a whole month.

Overnight in J absolutely The diff between PE and economy is trivial on domestic American - esp if you have status and can pick a nice seat on the us legs anyway

No, have not ticketed it. Not sure I want to do that much flying. As to Asia, see 4(e)2 on page 3 and 4(b) on page 2. 4(e)2 allows you to leave Asia twice and arrive in it twice, but [4(b)] requires you go TC1>2>3 (or visa versa) so in practice this means you must one of those...

Just discovered this as well. Just had to cancel a flight from BKK to Syd and was told 180 days. Say what you want about QANTAS, but when I had to cancel the outward legs of this trip with them, the money was refunded in the next few days

Just arrived from Sydney for the 11pm flight to LA so will be here for a while Anything I should order in particular ?

Flew a 787 from Tokyo to Sydney recently with QANTAS Windows not locked at any point (daytime flight) Found it useful as even fully “dark” you could still see enough to know if it was work “clearing” the window to take a look / pic

The cheapest Qantas fares (which are not always available on a flight) are indeed not upgradable with points. They are generally tagged as “sale” fares in the online booking system. Looks like you may have booked one of those. When you look at “manage booking” for these flights in a browser...

You were not kidding about short notice. Both those flights are within 24 hours The above are the tickets available on the 2 flights, tonight for perth-> syd Tomorrow for Syd->LAX The business class seats are J,C,D,I & U and as you can see there are just 2 business seats available right now...

If you can post the date of the QF11 and the details of the Perth to Sydney Leg (presume it is overnight) I can check Expert Flyer to tell you how full business is on these flights and that will help you aim your upgrade request to the flight with the best chance. I am presuming that if both...

Also check the “where can I go” page. Enter the period you want, one way, business, classic rewards and it will show you all available tickets to anywhere from your origin city. It is buggy, and frustrating, but it found me a 1st class ticket to Rome from Sydney in March (emirates) and a...

And here I am in the J lounge in Syd waiting for my flight. The airport itself is a zoo. At least 40 people were queued up for business checkin when I arrived. But the J lounge would be maybe half full, maybe a bit more than half, so you would expect the F lounge to have even more space. But...

It is a bit odd. That they are even asking suggests that insufficient standard upgrade requests have been received to fill the seats. But, as pointed out, with just 4 seats free in Business that does itself seem unlikely.

Thanks @henrus, my flight is at 7am, so looks like it is Blossom Lounge for me. and again the value of "Australian Frequent Flyer" is shown, because both the Blossom Lounge and Jetstar pages are silent on this But this post JQ/3K moving to T4 at SIN in March 2023 (previously October 2022) :-(...
