    Getting Credit for Status nights/points for stays at multiple hotels on the same date

    I've had an overlapping stay in NT, although what happened in my experience was different to what was said above. Had a 10 day stay at the Novotel in Darwin, and a side trip to Kakadu where I stayed at the Mercure Kakadu Crocodile Hotel. Keeping the room unused for a night in Darwin worked out...

    Return of the domestic pre-departure beverage?

    The FA very occasionally hands out the small bottles of water as a pre-departure beverage in Domestic J. Otherwise, I haven't seen a return of the glasses on a tray.

    Pickpocketed in Bangkok: by Qantas

    Okay so it was processed over the phone as card-not-present. That does help a lot. Out of curiosity, does anyone know if QF has any ticketing offices at airports that can physically process a payment without having to call someone?

    Pickpocketed in Bangkok: by Qantas

    Did they just take your card and process it as a card-not-present transaction, or was there an eftpos machine used somewhere with pin?

    Pickpocketed in Bangkok: by Qantas

    I'm thinking the charge back might require a bit of a fight. Technically the $1900 transaction was fulfilled. Qantas can show an e-ticket was issued and even though that purchase might have been in error, the OP actually utilised that purchase by flying that flight on that ticket. If the OP had...

    KUL transit on separate tickets

    I've never had a problem with MH through checking / interlining bags across separate tickets, even if it's different airlines.

    Qantas flight cancellation, costs incurred

    I think the car rental company is re-pricing the booking using current rates when the OP goes to change it, and the rate is now higher then it was when booked even without the one-way fee. I see both Avis and Hertz in MCY have the 'Kluger or similar' class available for that period, but both...

    Qantas flight cancellation, costs incurred

    What is the daily rate you were originally paying and what class of car do you want? FYI the correct IATA code for Brisbane Airport is BNE, as others having been using. BRI is the code for Bari International Airport in Italy.

    Qantas Business Class meals & menus

    MEL - SYD, Beef Ragu Pasta. Very tasty, with lots of big chunks of beef. No fatty or grissley pieces either. The size of the sourdough was tiny today though.

    Qantas Cabin Baggage Survey Results Email

    Well I think it's simple, but apparently "if you have a 10kg bag in the overhead bin you can't have another bag only a personal item". Leading the conversation down a drawn out rabbit hole trying to explain this.

    So then we're in agreement that 3 items is possible? Then let's go back to the original messages that seem to have sparked this 'disagreement'. I can have two small bags, which is clearly stated as "14kg total (each piece must not exceed 10kg)" and one personal item. How does this equate to...

    And you're ignoring the part where it clearly says "Plus, one small personal item". By your logic, you would only be able to bring: "One standard piece" OR "Two small pieces" OR "One small piece and garment bag" OR "one small personal item" The personal item text isn't nested within the small...

    You can have 10kg + 4kg (14kg total) + personal item? The rules just say "14kg total (each piece must not exceed 10kg)", so why couldn't you have a 10kg bag in the overhead? Sure reads like you want the policy to be changed so that personal item counts as part of the 14kg total allowance...

    I think Lynda mentioned in an earlier post that she would like to see a 14kg total restriction including the personal item. Then started talking about it as if it was already the case (no pun intended).

    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic Reward seats?

    I'm always flying out around that time of year, not had to pay anything more then $4.5k to SE Asia yet. This year's looking like $5.2k to $6k though.

    I don't fly SQ much, but I don't recall them weighing my hand luggage a couple of years back on a SYD > SIN return. I would've had both a duffel and a backpack for that trip. Having said that I primarily fly J internationally so maybe airlines are more lenient for premium cabins. I was...

    Not saying it doesn't happen, but I've never heard of any issues with overhead bins failing due to weight. I've also had no legacy carriers short or long haul pay any attention to weight of passengers carry on - with the exception of Qatar. Cabin bag can easily exceed 10kg if you consider...
