As does my other award e-ticket from November last year. However, this is not an E-ticket, as mentioned in the OP. Yes, I've even scrolled all 5 pages of the "Itinerary Receipt", there is no information to show the payment. I guess at this stage this is an anomaly, not a change in practice.

Just want to share my experience with booking a return business class flight with Virgin, to a destination (Mackay) that requires a connection in Brisbane. Booked using business flyer.. One leg MacKay-Brisbane was originally operated by an F100 - economy only. I sucked it up for convenient...

Yes, of course I'm referring to the confirmation email, that's why I said the confirmation was received. As per my post, the document attached to that email had the title "itinerary receipt" and it contained no information about the cash component. I have since received an email 16 hours later...

Has Qantas changed the information they provide for award bookings. I booked an award today with Qantas for flights on Emirates, the confirmation came in ok. But the attached document was an "Itinerary Receipt". There was no receipt included for the $1500 in +++!!!! This is rather annoying as...

not really that embarrassing, I've made much worse mistakes... still here. Thanks for the info about Adelaide. I must say i do tend to like basic, no frills pizza pesto fetta, margaherita for example. Adelaide sounds better than the perth pizza i remember. thanks

Crew luggage blocking restricted overhead areas (exit row, front row economy and business is common on most airlines. Not an A220 only issue. Yeah, pre-departure drink is nice. Personally have never needed one for hydration purposes. Perhaps if there is a risk of serious de-hydration, like...

First rule of flight club.... Possibly something about the real world options for treatment of a work related award flight, beyond benefits directly related to the flight.

I'm contemplating a qantas award booking for a work trip. Used to be beneficial to do manage booking with one of the middle eastern airlines (Saudia, I think). Does anyone know if that's still a useful thing to check out? If so, which airline? In this case, the cash fare costs about $2500 more...

Maybe adding only to the pseudo-data, this year I've had a surprising success rate with poitns upgrade requests. from Premium Y and and Y to business. Oz- to/from USA and PER to/from CDG.

True and when vissat 3 EMEA is launched it's going to take on vissat3 americas and the current vissat 3 americons is going to be vissat3 EMEA We can also see that until Vissat3 -APAC is launched Qantas has Skymuster = limited to continental Australia. plus, of course, the "partner satellites"...

The tech is the reason for the difference in views between both airlines. The issue is not at the aircraft end it is at the satellite end. Having an aircraft with "coverage" is useless if there is nothing to connect out to. It's pretty well known that Qantas connectivity is pretty much limited...

Fairly enough. Unfortunately, the OP hasn't really given info on why connection is vital. MY speculation is what would happen when the OP goes on their protected annual leave; do they need to be connected? They're paid to work 8 hours a day, do they need to be connected for the other 16 hours a...

I'm struggling to understand the OPs need to be connected to do work. That means you're "talking" (via email chat, teams message not necessarily voice/video) in real time which is pretty implausible. The work day is 8 hours, plenty of people are going to deal with it if someone isn't available...

Thanks. I didn't look beyond Airalo. First attempt and all that, plus being pretty last minute in planning. Kolet might have been slightly better for me, 2GB didn't quite last 2 weeks and I had a few days in hotels exclusively locked onto wifi. Now a bit of a choice as the UK trip is 10 days and...

I'm just looking at Airalo, first time doing an esim. I've got multiple overseas trips this year e.g. France now, UK in May What is the go with that, do I just top up the same esim on the next trip or is it a case of buying a new one for each trip. The french esim is slightly cheaper than...

Thanks for the clarification and guidance. My cost and status estimate was very much based on the vibe of the thing, the constitution, mabo - yeah the vibe.. In general, ~$500 is my limit for any domestic leg. Have double checked for completeness. one 80 SC flight in Oct 2024 was BNE-ADL (so...

Do you have to request that from them, or is it possible on line.

Thanks for the considered reply. Personally, that doesn't seem too bad. the cost isn't bad for me. Just had a quick look at my business rewards for a 6 month period in 2024 - They only give 6 months data at a time. $6900 spend across all employees - 308 Status earned by me - including about 8...

TL: DR So does the 50% VA requirement mean the 8 flight segment requirement is going away? I see some discussion about lifetime gold. It's a new thing!!!!!!!!! The argument that they didn't tell you 11 years ago about the earning requirement for something they don't have then but will have in...

We'll have to disagree then about $7 being well outside the price range. I'll also disagree that a $90 of sparkling made in the traditional method from the Adelaide hills is cheap plonk. Shop - Terre à Terre Wines https://terreaterre.com.au/products/2020-daosa-blanc-de-blancs/ We do agree...
