    QANTAS Cyber Incident

    If I am the shareholder, I would have been worried that company would need to make fair a bit of provision for potential lawsuits. I would rather have less points and SCs from that front than to receive a number of scam calls because my data is leaked.

    QANTAS Cyber Incident

    Another month, another potential data breach. So I wonder how much are we expecting Qantas to lose over this, and also how many status credits and points they need to gift again to compensate for the loss of customers privacy?

    Earn up to 110 Qantas Status Credits on the ground

    I am actually floating the idea whether the earning status credits on the ground will eventually replace Points Club and Points Club Plus? If Qantas can allow 1 SC earn for $x spend in each of the categories of Qantas branded activities, then Qantas would have avoided gifting everyone 100 SCs...

    SYD T1 chaos

    I think it is because most Asian departures are around 11am - 12pm? Wouldn't that be worse come November since many international students need to go home for break? Just kinda worried that the queues at SYD will persists into December which then delay my flight and miss my connection. I would...

    SYD T1 chaos

    It appears on Instagram that on the first few days of school holidays this term, there were out of control queues at SYD T1 and you need 45 minutes to clear security and immigration. I wonder if they will fix this by November? There are going to be millions of students flying back home this...

    OneWorld Connect - Connecting all LCCs of OneWorld carriers?

    With Fiji Airways joining OneWorld as a full member, the idea of OneWorld Connect is currently rested. However, there are many OneWorld carriers who has low cost affiliate, for example Jetstar from Qantas, Vueling from IAG, HK Express from Cathay Pacific, Firefly from Malaysia Airlines and...

    Earn up to 110 Qantas Status Credits on the ground

    I suppose not earning full Flexible Economy SCs on the most expensive JQ fares is not on. As I start, it turns me off from flying JQ at all.

    Credit Card Offers HSBC Star Alliance Credit Card: Fast-Track to Star Alliance Gold Status

    That's looks more achievable - $4000 per month spend towards Star Alliance Gold. Does anyone has any ideas on how to pay mortgage by swiping credit cards that might help achieve this?

    The Virgin Australia Newbie Questions Thread

    What makes it eligible to receive one? I am gold and I got nothing? So Virgin also gave up on me and let me become P1 with Qantas?

    The Virgin Australia Newbie Questions Thread

    Is there a triple status credits sale happening at the moment? I checked my app and nothing happened. I actually thinking whether paying $48000 for lifetime lounge access to SQ and VA would be worth it.

    Qantas reciprocal relationship with KLM/Air France (2020 onwards)

    I wonder as AF/KLM is now a major shareholder of SAS, whether we can see SK being added into the alliance?

    Qantas - Why no WhatsApp or Chatbot?

    Why do we need that many human operators when some of the operations can be done through a bot or a link to your booking?

    Qantas - Why no WhatsApp or Chatbot?

    Why would I need to be careful for when using Chatbot and customer representative chats are going to be more effective than listening to an operator and encounter so many communication misunderstandings and cannot record the chat from my side?

    Qantas - Why no WhatsApp or Chatbot?

    When you need specific help from Qantas, the only way you can do is call, yes using a phone to call. It is 2025, the age of AI and Chatbots. Jetstar has one, why Qantas are yet to introduce a Chatbot, or WhatsApp on their website? I suppose a Qantas WhatsApp would ease a lot of pain for it's...
