QF30 - Hong Kong to Melbourne - October 2024 Was feeling fairly full after eating in the lounges...so went the lighter options of Tomato Soup and Grouper. Soup was nice and while I enjoyed the sauce on the fish, the fish was somewhat hampered by it's species (yeah, my fault for ordering it)...

QF9 PER-LHR This was the first flight on the route after the recent route suspension. Went the Buffalo Mozzarella for starter - which I enjoyed. Seared Snapper for main - which I also largely enjoyed, but didn't like the flavour of the scallops. While it is seafood, I'm not sure if it...

QF775 - Melbourne to Perth - 2:25pm departure Options were Poached Chicken Salad, Thai Curry (Possibly with Prawns) and Beef Brisket with Mac n Cheese. Went the brisket which was perfectly fine. Side salad was good and the bread was it's usual consistent self. Crew were good.

If you are looking to use your lounge passes, you must be on a Qantas or Jetstar code. If you are flying a round the world ticket, in economy, if one of your flights is with Qantas, you can use a lounge pass before that flight, assuming Qantas operates its own lounge from the departure port...

QF1864 - BNE to TSV - 12:00pm service on E190 Chicken thigh (below) or Smoked salmon salad were the options. Went the chicken. Overall fine. Chicken not dry and sauce was fine. My low expectations of the Broccoli weren't met.

Every airline releases seats at different times, which is even worse in post covid world... If you wait til Asia to Australia options are open, you run the risk of their being less or no Europe to Asia options when you want them. If you go the JAL route, I'd suggest the JAL product to Sydney is...

Using the multi-city tool may help.

It can be painful.

You can add flights to the booking later or book a seperate leg. Even if Qantas was releasing seats regularly, it may be too early for them anyway. Options may open up later - Manila, Jakarta, Seoul and Hong Kong are generally ok options. BA and EK from Singapore.

My quick searching has shown some success with Manchester to Hong Kong (AF + EK), Helsinki to Japan (AY) and Frankfurt to Japan (JL). Can then then work on other options from there to get back to Aus.

So I read that slightly differently. Because the OP managed to get HKG-AKL flights, they needed to get flights from Australia to Asia. They requested these (BNE-NRT) and they were made available.

Unfortunately, I'm yet to fully master the ability to understand what people are trying to articulate, outside of the words they have provided in writing.

Why do you think they are "holding" reward seats? The most likely scenario is that they wanted to sell seats for cash, they haven't sold, and hence airlines to try and increase revenue by opening up unsold seats as rewards.

So the relevant information in this situation is the information you've seen on the Qantas webpage. Qantas Club is not connected to Oneworld and access to the partner lounges, is determined through negotiations between Qantas and the lounge operator.

Silly you need to argue your way to still fairly stingy compensation.

💯 The bread and butter is one area of QF's dinning I wouldn't touch. 1718149854 Be careful what you wish for. They may start making their bread with ingredients in season... 😂

I'd take those Swedish cold cuts over a Vegemite Sandwich 😁 If QF ever starts serving me Vegemite...

The ham and cheese, with the Pepe Saya, did go in the bread for a Sandwich. I'm a simpleton. The bread was probably the best bread QF has ever given me.

3 June 24 - 1705 - QF803 - SYD to CBR Always find it funny to get served a hot meal on such a short flight. Can be stressful trying to finish without scolding your tongue. Meal was a Chicken Curry. No other options. Was tasty enough, but it isn't going to win any awards. Would have taken...

3 June 24 - 1410 - QF533 - BNE to SYD An unexpected A330 service (was a 737 yesterday when I checked in). Meal options were: Ploughman's Plate, Cauliflower Soup and the infamous Vegetarian pizza. As per last time, I choose the Ploughman's plate, which I enjoyed even more this time. Good...
