They really should do this, 12 J seats hasn't been enough for years.

Unfortunately QF won't accept responsibility for "consequential losses" like your extra hire car fee. You could investigate whether travel insurance would cover the extra cost. If Australia had something like EU.261 your compensation payment for the cancelled flight would probably cover it!

It took 27 minutes today to board a full 738 flight, which makes me wonder what the point of the new system was. Doesn't seem to have sped things up at all.

Ah that was a fun time :)

Nope. Qantas Club if on a QF flight code, otherwise Gold and above.

They'll just roll out the fuel surcharge again I'm sure.

At least if you die while waiting for the lounge upgrade your beneficiaries can inherit your points now 🙃

Only risk I can think of would be if the account you transfer to has no recent activity, it could cause the points to evaporate on arrival. Presumably the official transfer method prevents this risk (or you'd hope it would, anyway).

Yes from memory this was their first big post-Joyce change as a demonstration of their committment to improving their reputation and conditions for their frequent flyers. It was swiftly followed by... er... and... also... um.... Well anyway, this was their first big post-Joyce change!

Hey at least it's only $21 in taxes!

Unlikely since it has to go through the same booking system.

Hopefully they get rid of the silly neckerchief thing.

Makes it sound like you could achieve P1 by upgrading your flights with points. As is usual with "AI" the answer "seems" plausible but is actually wrong/useless.

It's a small room with a few chairs (if you can find one), a coffee machine and a few bottles of wine. As long as your expectations aren't for more than that, go for it.

You can get gold easily enough from a single holiday to Europe in J, I'm sure there'd be lots of kids who picked up gold at the same time as their parents that way.

Qantas will surely go the same way sooner or later. Fortunately Qantas fares are so high that it will probably make earning status easier!

The only way you'd get SCs for each leg is if the flight number changed (or you had a >24hr stopover).

PCV or "perceived commercial value".

You're lucky you like the wine that has bonus points attached. All the big heavy shiraz gets a bit much after a while!

I'd be surprised if that works given gift cards are not usually redeemable for cash.
