On some cards you'll still be able to opt in for $90 per year to earn Qantas points then other options like points for hopper flights/hotels (giving a terrible 0.47c per point value), Myer (also 0.47c per point), Cashback to card (even worse 0.35c per point) still exist. This made Accor...

The A330s are now the same as the 737s whereby it switches from Skymuster to Viasat after leaving Australia. This means that on A330 flights to Asia and beyond you'll get a connection where fitted. 81% of the A330-200s 13 of the 16 is fitted with wifi. VH-EBM, VH-EBP and VH-EBQ are not fitted...

If you change the url it does become possible...

Just noticed quietly hidden away in the awards section of the CBA app a significant reduction to transfer partners. "From 1 October 2025 members will only be able to transfer with Velocity in the Frequent Traveller Conversion list". This means a loss of Air Canada (Aeroplan), Air Asia, Accor...

I'm now a couple of flights on 737 internationally and the wifi drop is 5 mins max so if longer I suspect something else was at play. That being said I do think on one of my devices I had to watch the ad again so when it does drop it pays to wait 5 mins then hit up the wifi.qantas.com website again.

Is there even a catering facility in Palau or Tonga? The QF website shows the following (and a check of the way back machine suggests it has for a while):

I 100% agree however I'd rather spend time in the nice places ;) I think my record has been HKG earlier in the year. I went Wing First, Wing Business, QF Lounge, Pier Business and Pier First. Yes I know rookie leagues just 5. Last Thursday, I had 3.5 hours and could have done 7 in MEL with...

In the past it has been the first week of September.

I had the Godfather Sour and an Applewood G&T last week in MEL, all very good. The prawn brioche was the favourite food option. I had the prawn, mozzarella, pork and squid. That being said the MEL EK lounge is currently opening at 5:15pm and so I trekked over there for some better cheese and...

Black out dates still apply so I suspect this sort of thing will be blocked.

It's kind of correct. You can't book HA flights directly as classic rewards as on this page it has to be one as an AS flight number: https://www.qantas.com/ie/en/qantas-experience/network-and-partner-airlines/hawaiian-airlines.html#qantas-frequent-flyers

https://help.accorplus.com/hc/en-au/articles/49291532869913-Will-the-new-Stay-Plus-FREE-Night-be-subject-to-allocation-and-availability Nope, no allocation.

No problem, not just with NH but all other carriers, for example I booked a UA flight with SQ points and then got my VA benefits by changing number.

Does this mean all maxes have wifi now?

Unlike JQ, 3K was never that strict on the 7kg. Once big plus was their priority boarding that started with Row 1 and over wing exits, followed by rows 2-5 (preferred seats) then the back half and front. I wish JQ would copy that 3K method!

I flew on the A220 today in J (first time) and had a nice flight, I think the seat was better than the 737 (noting the A321 and refit 737 will have the newer seat) but the stand out thing was the front toilet... so much space compared to 737 front lav or those tiny things down the back.

I'm onboard QF157 and the speeds after we left Australia are excellent. Speedtest settled at this but it did peak at 110mbps down. FYI this is the exact spot we lost the NBN sats and the drop was around 3-4 minutes, the announcement before takeoff did mention a drop leaving AU airspace...

BNE-MEL has been an A220 route since day 1, I flew on an A220 on the first day of passenger flights from BNE-MEL. Nothing special really other than QF using more A220s on the BNE-MEL route and then stretching the 737s to new places like DRW-SIN, BNE-ROR etc

What about MEL-BNE?

I’ll be at MEL between 3-6pm today (so will miss unless JQ super late) and pay a visit to the F lounge.
