    Recent Qantas App updates

    Noticed this as well, mine showed about 4 days out the rego. For partner flights on aircraft that aren't in the QF fleet (eg A320/A350) it doesn't show an aircraft picture whilst those that are in the QF fleet but partner operated are showing the QF livery plane.

    Skytrans to Operate Lord Howe Island Route from March 2026 - Take over from Qantaslink

    Most of the 300s are still registered to Qantas awaiting their sale. Back in April Avmax mentioned they had signed a letter of intent with Qantas to purchase the 16x Q300s but it appears this hasn't happened yet except for just a few which were accepted then went into storage. My guess is they...

    ALL Accor+ Explorer Membership Discussion

    One other thing is that pricing across all regions is now the same, Milelion has a good article about this. https://milelion.com/2025/08/05/accor-plus-becomes-all-accor-explorer-stay-plus-nerfed-dining-discount-cut-to-30 I had mine in Malaysia and paid ~$427 per year with 2x free nights...

    Jetstar Asia to shutdown on 31 July 2025

    I guess it’s an easy one for them to cancel with other options like QF or JQ via DPS whereas other ports aren’t serviced by other QF group airlines making it harder to recover.

    Skytrans to Operate Lord Howe Island Route from March 2026 - Take over from Qantaslink

    It does say on the website (https://www.qantas.com/au/en/book-a-trip/flights/smartlynx-australia.html): They are apparently going to add classic rewards on after Feb 2026 but its yet to be seen. This document from a couple of days ago mentions reward seats and even an increase to carrier...

    Not really, some hotels might honor the benefits of the higher status member but they don't have to.

    Jetstar exits HNL from Oct 2025

    There has been unofficial reports on here that those on a 081 ticket can get QF lounge access if on a classic award booked on a different partner. I haven’t tried this but would be worth investigating.

    Qantas Awards on Hawaiian Airlines

    This is 1 March next year, interestignly the taxes are a lot less but one other thing is it books onto the AS flight number, the actual flight number is HA452.

    Major changes to Velocity Frequent Flyer announced 17/10/24

    Sucks yes but it’s clear enough on the website that from 1 October anyone up for having their status assessed is under the new rules. I don’t think they’re going to be super flexible in this regard either, since they announced the changes I think they’ve been less flexible than usual. The...

    Qantas starts international wifi

    In the article one thing to note about the following: The switch is from the NBN satellites (which cover Australia) to the Inmarsat satellite network. Whilst Inmarsat covers Australia I assume Qantas/Viasat gets better pricing from the NBN deal therefore more bandwidth for less.

    Article: Should Airlines Keep Lounges Open for Delayed Flights?

    A couple of years ago I flew VA SYD to BNE last flight of the day. There were rolling weather delays and just two flights left mine to BNE and the other to MEL (the rest had been cancelled meaning a huge crowd at the VA lounge reception). After mostly clearing the crowd (telling those with...

    Jetstar Asia to shutdown on 31 July 2025

    The way the commercial policy reads those on 081 Qantas tickets should be eligible for a reroute on a different carrier. In theory this also extends to rewards seats so I wonder if anyone’s had any luck getting this change.

    Jetstar Asia to shutdown on 31 July 2025

    Yep there were two routes they could do this on, SIN-DPS for those on 3K flights they offered a free change to the JQ flight instead and MNL-KIX (operated by 3K) where they offered a reroute on MNL-NRT-KIX operated by GK instead. For those who'd booked direct with 3K on all other routes it was...

    USA Entry - CBP Mobile Passport control app [MPC]

    Nope they don't ask for proof of receipt because it's in the system. That being said they could in theory send you to secondary where if you refuse to unlock your phone could (and probably would) be denied entry. That being said I've been to the US a couple of times this year and the entry with...
