    The true value of status - why NOT to spend to seek status...

    I accidentally flew as an NB a year or two ago. My ticket was booked under the wrong name, and I didn't realise it until I went to check in. I suppose I should have tried to change it, but it was only a short domestic flight and I was running late, so I just risked it ... Anyway, I had the...

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    I don't have the most typical F seat preferences - I go for 1A, 1K, 5A, 5K in order. I don't like people looking at me, and these seats have the fewest people/most walls around you. :) As Princess Fiona said, 5A has the shelf. And at LHR, you're the first off the plane. This is the first time...

    So this is really a first world problem, but the new seat selection tool blocks 5A on the A380. Reservations wouldn't allocate it to me, but the SST did.

    Qantas Chauffeur service - General Questions/Advice

    I used to do LHR-MEL-SYD frequently on the old QF10, which required an overnight stay in MEL. So I used CD to LHR, then back and forth to a hotel in MEL, and then airport to home in SYD.

    Amex "I'm going to cancel my card" - bonus points given thread.

    Apologies if this is answered earlier in the thread. I genuinely want to cancel my platinum charge card, but got sucked in by a 100k offer "to stay for six months." Can they enforce that? My annual fee is due next month.

    As a reference point, this was my last P1 briefing blurb. That would be 18 days (and nights) sitting in one of those F seats, apart from the time I was downgraded to J when the F seat was broken.

    Well there are those who were rich before flying QF, and those who remain so afterwards! My ideal hard product is a personal igloo - private, climate controlled to freezing, and enough humidity to breathe properly.

    I think it is maybe P1 + F. The registration said that if there are any change to your acceptance to ring or email the SST.

    I received an interesting invite today, confirming: QF still does not know where I am QF F will remain! I'm actually tempted to try to rearrange my travel to attend this. Dear LM Phil Capps, Head of Product and Service Development at Qantas is pleased to invite you to attend an exclusive...

    Inconsistency is not dead. I rang up yesterday to change a sale fare that I was getting an error message trying to change online. I was fully expecting to pay more because there weren't any sale fares showing on the new dates. The QF Premium agent did say something to that effect, but then "let...

    QF1/2 F pax experience through SIN

    Ironically, when that incident occurred, I had checked the F menu when I thought I was going to be sitting there, and the J menu was identical minus the fluff around the edges. I was so angry all I had was some carrot soup towards the end. Fast forward to last night, and where am I but seat...

    QF1/2 F pax experience through SIN

    I had a second visit last night on QF1, which was the complete opposite of the QF2 experience. QF1 must be after the earlier peak because the lounge was empty. The staff were the same as earlier in the week and recognised me. This time, I received boarding details, a sticker wirh the wifi...

    QF1/2 F pax experience through SIN

    I had the curry, which was nice, as I like curry. But it's not exactly fine dining! As J seems to have basically the same menu as F, at least if you're in J, you can say you're getting the F experience. :D

    QF1/2 F pax experience through SIN

    My first visit to the lounge was a bit all over the place, and I nearly got left behind! Leaving LHR was completely smooth. A porter met me at the car and checked me in, and boarding was fine, etc. But then not having been to Singapore in ages, it took me a long time to find the lounge in the...

    QF1/2 F pax experience through SIN

    Apologies for the blurs. The new QF2 menus seem squarer than the previous ones and are difficult to get a focus on. The menu is called supper/breakfast on both sectors. But it's actually a dinner supper with courses, as opposed to a supper supper with just the list of five or six random...

    I've been having a marginally happier problem on QF2/1. I haven't been able to change the discount J fares I booked during last year's DSC offer into anything but full J on the QF1 return leg, while QF2 outbound is fine for any day. But discount F is always available on the QF1 legs for a minor...
