Qantas are not alone in this caper. Many companies are only as good as their IT budget and security advisors. SMS 2FA is basic and has been around for years. The better setups give you options to receive a text or an email....very easy for QF to setup they are being lazy. Those work...

Technically Qantas are correct. Would it hurt them to make a goodwill gesture to a Platinum FF and offer the points as a one-off, keep the customer happy while they learn a lesson? Of course not.

I'm confused....what option has been taken away? I've never used PAGSS lounge in T3...even on some days where multiple CX flights have been cancelled turning the CX lounge into a zoo the desk girls have politely asked me to use another lounge, or if I prefer to use CX then apologising for how...

Without the fog in SYD you might've had better luck but the majority of flights were cancelled and/or delayed and you arriving at 8am were pushed down the list as arriving late. Look at the bigger picture - Sunday was bad day in SYD with very heavy fog and school holiday commencement - you were...

Didn’t Alan Joyce just revolutionise the FF programme so more seats available during peak times?:cool:

I’m sure any tablet up to 11” would be ok. There are 9.7” iPad Pro models so referring to a specific model doesn’t really indicate what’s actually allowed to be used. They should specifically say over 11” or something along these lines.

Captain just apologised for the delay out of Sydney...currently 5 aircraft in front of us with a few landings to come as well. Then he apologised that Melbourne is only using one runway due to strong winds so there might be a delay in landing too. We are already 21 mins late... HSR anytime...

Took aisle row 8 on the 737 with a spare seat in the middle...nice. Rows 4/5/6 are full. Crew are now referring to specific gadgets when asking you to turn off electronic devices, along with Microsoft Surface Pros and iPad Pros...is this a new form of advertising? Are regular iPads ok? What...

Already spotted Richard Clapton, Phil Gould and Peter Sterling...So much star power this morning in SYD J Dom :eek:

Currently in SYD J Domestic taking my first SYD-MEL in a year!! Exciting :)

One of the best flights I ever had was on the VA 777 SYD-HKT...sad when it got dropped. Most of my flying is with QF simply due to flexibility and options.

A goodie :D

MrsMaxwell recently made P1! She received a nice welcome email along with a social invite in SYD, while also snagging an upgrade from PE to J on her recent return SCL-SYD which was nice - all in the first week! We were both P1 in its first year and besides a single op up to J on a SYD-MEL...

I recently requested some seats be released for SYD<>MEL - I was flexible so requested a few various flights where some were rejected and others were successful while all flights showed exactly the same loadings in EF! I guess loadings aren't the single factor when requesting.

Seeing as the current slop meals served by QF in Y would cost no more than $5 I think it is a great idea....I'd even pay a bread roll surcharge that ensure the bread roll you are served is actually edible.

Why not? Earning 5000-7000SCs per year means at least 20+ long haul International sectors in premium cabins with an annual spend of $50-$100k. You think LTP is valued at more than half a million bucks? As others already mentioned it is simply a token gesture when in reality QF know how many...

From Olivia herself; "To reward our highest flyers, we will soon be launching Lifetime Platinum. Eligible members will enjoy the benefits of Platinum status, regardless of how often they fly" Regardless how often they fly...after the initial 62yrs of Platinum :p:oops:

I've been flat out today what'd I miss??? :D

Underwhelming announcement in a good way. LTP is just a token gesture - QF know how many flyers are close or over 75k SCs and I am sure it ain't many. When LTG is 14k there is no logic to justify a whopping 5x multiple for the next tier up. Fuel surcharges are still stupidly high (and now...

I am working from home this morning so I can watch the press conference and post here without the boss annoying me!
