    Qantas Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    10/12 QF40 CGK-MEL Y Saver to J - Upgraded at gate. Received a text saying they're "unable to confirm" my upgrade request T-11. At the airport, check-in agent confirmed whether I still wanted an upgrade to J, I said yes and she said to approach the gate agent and confirm with them. I asked if...

    QF40 CGK-MEL 10/12 Upgraded at the gate! Though as I wasn't expecting one, I kinda loaded up on fried chicken, sambal matah and Indomie at the lounge, so only had the crumbed chicken main. The colors look pretty unappetizing, but it's quite tasty, especially the potato puree. Certainly never...

    QF39 MEL-CGK 24/11 Flew Y bulkhead, so was able to go to J cabin while waiting for doors to open and snapped pics of the J menu beside the empty seats. Have an upgrade pending for the return, fingers crossed! Yeah QR lounge SIN food slaps. Would definitely make time for an ala carte dinner...

    Hilton Diamond through Velocity Platinum status

    I see. Yeah my VA status would lapse end of this year. So are my choices either: use it on my existing HH account to extend until end 2024 (Apr 2025), or; make a new HH account, use my VA benefit on that one to get Gold until end 2025 (Apr 2026), then subsequently merge both HH accounts?

    Hilton Diamond through Velocity Platinum status

    Read this thread to double-check with things, does this mean if your HH is already (and currently) Gold, you can't use the VA status match as an extension of Gold? Been using ALL and GHA a lot more this year, and was planning to use the status match as an opportunity to extend my Gold. If you...

    Article: How to Get Airline Student Discounts

    Garuda Indonesia also offers student discounts (plus free extra luggage if travelling Y). It's mainly geared towards expat students going home to visit family, but Australian students should also be eligible for this if they're itching to go to Bali, Jakarta, or any other destination in...

    Velocity reinstates Singapore Airlines redemptions

    I had the same problem, booked early Sep. SQ booking page kept asking for email to be added. Called VA and they confirmed it's been added, problem persisted, few weeks later I live chatted SQ through app, but they brushed me off. Earlier this week, I accessed my booking to try again, and...

    Qantas is sorry (again)

    No business lounge vouchers or status extension to go with that apology? :\

    One point rewards promo??

    Quick fingers and a strategy yielded sweet, sweet victory (after 2 weeks of failure).

    One point rewards promo??

    The grooming kit was a glitched product, you couldn't add that to cart/checkout despite it being "in stock". Gave up the thermos on my cart (got that last week) to try and nab that.

    Lounge Access Help Desk

    Might be flying CI in Y from HND-TSA with family (possibly traveling in J) - can they bring extra guests on the same flight into the JL Sakura lounge in HND (or whichever lounge contracted there)?

    QFF Bonus Status Credits/Points gift on back of Aug 2023 profit

    Argh, cough. Was worth a try though, and at least there's the lifetime tally. This makes for a second year of bad luck from my membership year.

    You can now redeem Qantas points for JAL domestic First Class

    Yeah, JAL used to specifically state on its website that First Class isn't available as a reward/free ticket. Which is why I was surprised when I noticed award availability SIN-HND-ITM last month for Sep/Oct as there were some availability in first AND business (dubbed Class J).

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    Called QF again, a diff rep says my chasing up of the reward is still pending, but wants to point out that the "21 days after the member has achieved Green Tier" only applies for new GT gain, and that for renewing existing GT the rewards will show up within 21 days of next membership year...

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    Qualified GT last membership year and redeemed reward the same year. Requalified again this year (last month), but 21 days passed by with no reward. Called 131313 yesterday, got a callback today saying that the rewards would be given 21 days after the next membership year, which does not at all...

    So just to confirm, you can't do 100SC in a single membership year from two Green Tier rewards redeemed same membership year?

    Qantas apologises to frequent flyers with status extensions, lounge passes, points & more reward seats

    Used one of my AJ coupons on PER J two weeks ago. Slightly different experience, lounge lady was confused for just a sec until I told her that I used the voucher, she was very understanding afterwards and even trusted that I do have it when I struggled to find and show the lounge confirmation...

    QF497 SYD-MEL 12/6 No PDBs. Choice was between Grilled Chicken and Cheese Focaccia, Pea and Mint Soup or Cheese Plate. Went with the soup, which was nice and light, perfect after being filled up on my previous flight and the lounge food.

    Very meh, though the pork is quite soft, the fat isn't chewy.
