    Can't use Australian credit card for AAdvantage reward booking

    You can also call AA and pay over the phone, using an AU credit card. Your reward booking will be in a pending state, so just take note of the booking reference, quote that to the phone operator and all is done. AA customer service staff have been pleasant and competent every time that I have...

    Qantas cancels flight, refuses paid upgrade, refuses points refund

    Dear AFF community, I'm looking for some advice here after hitting repeated roadblocks with Qantas Customer Care. Long story short: Mrs GO was flying QF SYD-MEL return in Y class for work in December 2022, on a corporate gig booked by a travel agent. I upgraded her Y flights to J using my QFF...

    Earning QF status credits on QR flights

    Vienna. Flying QR in J from VIE-xDOH-CGK and then QF CGK-SYD. Different PNRs. She was adamant that QR could only check my bags through to CGK and I would have to make my own arrangements there. I was equally adamant about not crossing the Indonesian border and that OW membership still...

    Earning QF status credits on QR flights

    RooFlyer is 100% correct here; my bad! Check the flight class and eligibility: my recent QR flights were in J so it probably went a lot smoother (with both QF and VA) than it could have. In the past, I did some Y flights with QR back from Europe and got absolutely nothing from QFF, even as a SG...

    Earning QF status credits on QR flights

    Should be perfectly fine. Flew QR from Europe back in January, booked through Amex Travel - QFF number for me, VA FF for the better half - and all went fine. QFF and VA points/SC were posted to us both, relatively quickly (SG for QF; PS for VA). QF was faster than VA actually, which surprised me.

    Fast-track QR membership tier or Accor status level

    Alas, no double-dipping seems to be permitted between ALL/QR and ALL/QF. Not surprising but just FYI.

    QF 1 J to Tromso, Norway

    Click-bait? Perhaps not as far fetched as you may think!🤫 These were the last flights out of SYD domestic on Christmas Eve 2021... without that cursed PCR test result, I had a much greater chance of getting to Tromso than into QLD! And, yes, the PCR did come back negative, some 15 minutes...

    AAward - change from AAdvantage Number to Qantas FF number

    Many thanks for the tip here! I was in the same position - QF domestic flight on AA rewards. I've now successfully updated my FF number from AA to QF on RJ (and all other passengers too - as RJ defaulted everyone to RJ, even though they were listed with QFF numbers). Now everyone has been...

    Qantas Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    Long-time lurker; first-time poster. 3/7 SYD-AYQ Success for 4 pax from Y to J on QF. Came through about 24 hours prior. Positive result, given that 2 of 3 U class seats had been redeemed about 2 weeks prior. That was a win. The return journey - where QF cancelled AYQ-SYD the night before...
