(But mainly taketh)

Well they've only "invested" $150 million in this, can't expect miracles you know!

Although there'd be nothing stopping them making classics available to partners but not their own FFs.

WP1 can see 4-5, WP can see 6-7 and SG can see 8+ at time of booking.

I imagine this is partly the reason for the "crack down".

QF are clearly moving more and more towards the only real benefit of mid-tier status being lounge access and increased baggage allowance. All the other little niceties of both Gold and WP are gradually being whittled away.

Lol, P1 and CL can nab row 4 at time of booking.

Referring to the original quote, would the mooted CR+ really count as a "major investment"? Or is there something else coming as well? Any gossip / speculation on what that phrase may mean?

I think if it's the last leg of the booking there won't be an issue. You might run into problems if it wasn't the last leg, then there could be a risk of later legs being cancelled. But if the rest of you check-in and show up at the airport it seems unlikely they'd deny you boarding just because...

If there's a seat available for 1.5 million points or whatever, you could get a "discount" and redeem it at CR rates once a year.

I was idly wondering if something like a guaranteed return J/F seat at CR rates, once a year per member, on any flight they wanted (subject to general availability) would work. Yes they have 15 million members or whatever but most of those wouldn't actually have enough points to redeem J to...

My impression is once the flight is under airport control any similarities with information shown online is just a coincidence

There's also rumours of Qantas introducing a monthly plan; might be worth holding on and trying to scrounge entry passes unless you have a lot of travel planned.

I'll wait for them to be available at classic award rates thanks.

From memory they also have a small snack menu with real food available outside of the meal times, as opposed to chips/chocolates.

You are all forgetting the half a teaspoon of caviar!

Why would you need a re-ticket if the flight number is the same?

Make the most of it and go for an In'n'Out burger and a nice walk on the Santa Monica Pier. There are worse places to have to fill in a day.

On MEL-SYD the other day in J, the FA came to my partner and I and discreetly offered us first choice from the lunch menu. Nice to know that even as a lowly LTG it's still possible to outrank everyone else in the business cabin :cool:

#4 if your fare is refunded then seems like the seat fee would be too.
