    Classic and Classic Plus domestic availability quirk

    I guess this is how they can argue that Classic+ hasn't removed Classic.

    New Qantas International Route from Adelaide to Auckland

    Firstly they could serve breakfast on the morning flights instead of lunch. Chicken curry is not what I'm after at 9am. Also why can't they do a separate drinks service (either before or after the meal)? Flight is perfectly long enough. I'm sure that used to be a thing. 1747266352 Idea was...

    Especially when he's cruising with the top down :)

    Qantas Sydney International Business Lounge

    I don't understand how these things can take so long. Some new cabinetry and soft furnishings should not take over a year to complete!

    A totally unexpected surprise

    Only time I ever got given a bottle of wine on a QF flight was as an apology after the FA spilled Bob Hawke's glass of red all over my leg.

    Experience with non-standard oversize baggage

    I took a bubblewrapped Weber BBQ from MEL-SYD once, didn't raise an eyebrow.

    Withdrawing from Qantas Pay ?

    Never mind... worked out it's because the card was locked. The app says it doesn't affect transfers but clearly it does :mad:

    Withdrawing from Qantas Pay ?

    Has anyone tried pulling money out of Qantas Pay via bank transfer? I've decided since it looks like travel to the US is off for the foreseeable future I may as well pull my USD out of Qantas Pay, but the transfer keeps failing with a generic "We're experiencing technical difficulties" message...

    Where were you flying to? Reciprocal benefits only apply on some routes IIRC.

    Skytrans to Operate Lord Howe Island Route from March 2026 - Take over from Qantaslink

    The FAQ on that page says Classic Plus will not be available, it makes no mention of Classic awards. The "further information" page specifically says Classic awards will still be available on codeshare: https://www.qantas.com/au/en/qantas-experience/network-and-partner-airlines/skytrans.html

    New Project Sunrise test flight: Sydney to London over the South Pole in an A380

    Playing with the "measure distance" tool on Google Maps, I can't get a route from SYD-LHR that goes anywhere near Antarctica without it being > 20000km, significantly longer than the A380's range afaik.

    QantasLink Airbus A220 Discussion

    Well I have to say I quite like the A220. Economy legroom seems quite reasonable (my last Y flight was on BA intra-Europe and it's chalk and cheese compared to that). And the new J seat is pretty good too!

    New Adelaide Qantas Club & Business Lounge

    The decor is nice, it just "feels" small. The old QP felt spacious and had various corners and nooks and crannies you could head for to get away from the throng. The new QP is pretty much just one room.

    Qantas double status credits: Register & book between 12-18 March 2025

    It always seems that the DSC periods fail to coincide with sale periods, completely coincidentally I'm sure!

    B737 subbed for A332 MEL-CNS

    I had that recently after a cancellation and my theory is it's because the only seats available were ones I couldn't select (row 1). I called them and they put me in 1D. I was a bit worried it meant the flight was overbooked though!
