I'm in the same boat. I mean, I still would have booked the PER - LHR segment regardless... Just would have liked some choice on the bird I fly west. What's the likelihood of QF putting you on a different plane or rerouting on QF1? I primarily want to depart via an International Terminal.

Picked up 2 x QF9 J flights from Mel to Lhr in August. Happy days.

True... Except it was pretty clear that part of the idea was to free up the A330 for redeployment😉

I'm confused why you think they would do this? Say you fly a 787 with 50% of passengers getting off at HNL and 50% continuing to JFK... you'd be flying a half empty plane to JFK all the time. At least at LAX they were utilising a plane that would be sitting on the ground all day. Additionally...

I'll be in Syd Int J lounge zoo on Friday morning... If anyone else wants to be amazing and lovely enough to guest me in the F lounge I'll love you forever 😁

Perhaps they will come back! As it could be a short term glitch after Japan advised Chinese Airlines, including Hong Kong based, they could only fly to Tokyo, Nagoya or Osaka. I understand they have since back-flipped on Hong Kong based airlines... though they still have capacity restraints, so...

Having recently booked a 318J ticket, I confirm that Qantas call centre staff are currently hopeless. It may be different if you get Hobart, but both South Africa and Philippines centres just do not understand what they are doing when it comes to these bookings and have no ability to get your...

More than happy to spend time in HKG. Though, think I'm out of stopovers. I'll see if I can find some ORD - HKG availability

Thanks, thought that was the case. Award isn't pricing as a OW award and that is the only thing that I think could be causing that... Other than QF error.

Every time I book one of these 318J tickets, I tell myself never again... Qantas certainly does not make life easy. Anyway, does anyone know if I will have married segment issues with separately searched Malaysian and JAL flights? My routing of concern is: KUL-NRT on MH HND-HEL on JL I found...

Not disputing you can get a cheaper airfare than Qantas, or can use points... But if QF is able sell seats at that price, which evidently they can, then good luck to them. Not everyone is in the points game. Most people couldn't tell you what plane they flew on.

I would assume a business charges as much as the market is willing to pay.

😳 Tragic times for industry and staff.

Perhaps. My cynical view is... whatever they say isn't a necessary action, will 75% of the time become necessary action in around 48 hours.

🤣 I am sure all those balls go through a complete sanitising regime

Possibly a better chance winning Powerball I'd guess.

Also depends on when your planned travel is. But things aren't looking great! My next 318J OWA starts in June. I've already cancelled.

No one knows atm

Yep. It will be interesting to see what the route network is during this crisis (and afterwards). I'm thinking similar to you, except I'd think they would maintain a token SIN & HKG presence too. Sad times for the airline and staff.

Fair point. The problem for Virgin is if they have people suspecting they are in a precarious position, that may impact forward bookings making the situation worse. I didn't book an intra Asian flight on Hong Kong Airlines as I was worried they go belly up. I'd personally think twice about...
