    New Qantas route - Perth to Paris from July 2024

    Enough to make what is already a payload restricted premium heavy sector viable. BITRE data shows some freight stats but freight is not only weight, it’s volumetric space as well that makes money.

    Article: Latest Changes May Not Fix Qantas’ Reward Availability Problem

    SCL is a hard one, as LATAM gets hard block of seats in Y and J. Therefore QF capacity is significantly lower than the config. People may see empty seats but those do not belong to QF. Like your flatmate’s milk in the fridge - you can’t touch it.

    New Qantas route - Perth to Paris from July 2024

    SYDLAX could have 50% load factors in some months - in one direction - yet the route is viable. Need to look at load factors of the round trip service - 65% based on this data. (Besides, November is one of those months again - right after school holidays.)

    New Qantas route - Perth to Paris from July 2024

    End of school holidays in AU outbound loads are light. Inbound load factor CDGPER is still very good.

    Baggage interline - separate PNRs - QF award flight on AA metal to QF award flight on QF metal

    Are you sure it’s QF code on the ticket if it’s an award? My understanding was awards typically were booked on the operating carrier code. AS definitely no longer interlines, and pretty sure AA is the same. BUT, never hurts to try your luck on the day. Try and pick an agent who seems the most...

    Qantas international Economy Class meals

    Interesting that it’s on a morning flight. I’m all for it, I think breakfast food should be banned on airplanes.

    Qantas A380 New Route Speculation

    One stop via SIN will complement Sunrise, at least initially, for a few years. Need at least 2 frames to operate just one sunrise daily service, and the new frames will not be arriving all at once. Two daily sunrise services = 1x 380 in terms of capacity, and there is currently demand for more...

    My bad. Didn’t notice the date of the OP.

    Cancelled Qantas FF Points due to inactive account

    Contact the frequent flyer team and ask for a reinstatement challenge. I think from memory you would need to earn points from two or three partners within 90 days or something like that.

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    Do you know that for a fact? If a seat is marked by previous flight crew as playing up, engineers will have to look at it to clear. The malfunction can be benign, as in “jams occasionally”.

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    A seat appearing working fine doesn’t necessarily have full functionality. And yes, staff passengers will be allocated those. It could be a minor defect, but an inconvenience for a commercial passenger requiring a potential seat reassignment mid flight. Hence, check-in staff will move commercial...

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    If a seat is marked broken at check-in, it will be allocated to standby staff, and commercial pax will be moved to another seat. The fact someone was seating there is not malicious. Staff often get moved around into broken seats, including mid flight. It’s unfortunate that it happened to you...
