    Changes to how you use your $450 Travel Credit

    I've just gone in and now I can see a lot more options!! It's like calling in a tradie and not being able to replicate the problem when they're there... I swear everything else was the same... Thank you :) EDIT: Actually I lie, there was one change. Just now I selected one-way, and was able...

    Changes to how you use your $450 Travel Credit

    Trying to use my Ultimate QF credit between MEL/SYD and I only get one flight and time option, each way. Am I doing something wrong? I've tried clearing the appropriate filters and logging out and in again. Apologies if this has been asked and answered, I skimmed all pages of this thread and...

    Gifting baggage allowance

    IMHO I wouldn't want to encourage some I've seen to lug even more carry-on baggage as it becomes unwieldy and slows others down, plus as mentioned it'd eat into airlines' business model. If I'd been able to get a rebate for all the unused baggage allowance I've had over the years, I'd be able...

    What side to walk on?

    I can usually easily step around people standing on the ‘wrong’ side if necessary so IMHO not such an irritant for me. Many other selfish or ignorant behaviours that bug me, like smoking and leaving a stinky trail behind.

    Malaysia J class review

    So would you be willing to pay the premium QF is demanding to avoid MH next time, or fly someone else? The meal timing and having to follow up with earplugs is annoying but IMHO I’d make sure I had my own equipment like noise-cancelling earphones for an overnight flight.

    Changing QFF anniversary / review months?

    I don't have experience and the T&Cs around this are very sparse, but presumably this might also void any SCs towards lifetime status?

    Current Qantas First Lounge Menu (SYD/MEL) and relevant topics

    I have one datapoint of a family in the CL/P1 area (so presumably offered this special menu) while on MH metal

    Melbourne Qantas First Lounge Closed most October 2025

    Welcome to AFF. It's the MEL F lounge that's closed so that shouldn't be the reason you cant link your 12 October flight. I was going to say school holiday blackout period but holidays would have finished by then. While we're all friends here, sometimes unfriendlies might also pass through, so...

    Denpasar International Transit (Airside and Landside options)

    When I did DPS status run turnarounds last year, when arriving I headed straight down the hall for transfers, rather than turn right for the immigration queues. I don't remember airline-specific transfer desks, but there was what seemed to be a 'general' desk checking my boarding pass - and I...

    Gifts for cabin crew

    I'd think FAs usually have the opposite problem - DYKWIAs declaring "I'm lifetime triple-studded diamond top tier, I spend eleventy zillion on your airline....."

    PSA: Qantas Hotels drip pricing

    That appears dodgy, possibly illegal. If so, I also encourage reporting - I'd do the same if I came across it myself. Their response sounds like a copout and trying to wash their hands of it. It's their website, they're taking your money and they're making the profit.

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    Most recent international experience: At the MEL FLounge (flying Y), was offered a spa slot and gladly took it up. Outbound after the lunch service, the flight attendants missed clearing our row (2nd row of Y) and by the time I realised they weren't coming back they were too far away without...

    Priority lane enforcement

    I admit to being conditioned to treating boarding early or first as a benefit and privilege and usually do so, even though it means I'm 'stuck' in a seat for a few minutes longer. But IMHO one of the good things about boarding early is because I usually have a window seat, I don't have to impose...

    Priority lane enforcement

    There's this thread that started off about a fail, so glad you had the opposite experience. https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/threads/virgin-priority-boarding-fail.101213/

    Qantas to Introduce Group Boarding and Bag Tracking

    There are some flyers out there who aren’t even signed up to QFF - not even bronze! :p

    Qantas' New A321XLR

    Didn't bother entering as 1) I've never had any luck with 'tell us in 25 words' competitions and not feeling lucky and 2) I'm MEL based so it's going in the wrong direction for me. (I can't tie it in with a status run!)
