I noticed a few years ago that HSBC were offering Platinum Qantas cards with a $99 fee when I was paying $199. When I phoned them and asked if I could get the lower fee, they initially tried to fob me off by saying the terms and conditions would be different. When I asked what was different they...

The 787-10s might be the replacement for the A330 on international routes but I wonder if they will ever be used east - west in Australia. Unfortunately I think the days of wide bodies on these routes are numbered and it's only a matter of time before Per-Syd and Per-Mel follow what has already...

Just about everyone loves the A330. But Qantas don't really care and are quite happy to replace them with narrow bodies. Perth - Brisbane all 737's now, as are an increasing number of flights Perth-Sydney and Perth-Melbourne. And Qantas have converted a couple of their A330's to freighters. Says...

I currently have the HSBC Qantas Platinum but will be cancelling it within the next 2 weeks, before the annual fee is charged next month. After a lot of research I have gone with Qantas Premier. No big bonus points but ongoing I believe it offers a good deal when comparing annual fee against...

Replacing 737 with A321, yes a step forward. As per my post, replacing A330 with A321, a step backwards in my opinion.

Unfortunately I think this is a sign of where Qantas is heading as well. A330's progressively being replaced by narrow bodies on the Australian trans continental routes (already gone from Perth-Brisbane) and I suspect will only get worse when new A321XLR's start arriving. And Qantas have turned...

Good luck flying Premium Economy with Air NZ. No such thing while they are using the wet leased Wamos plane.

If the prices are the same (on a QF booking) make the most of it while you can. Before this flight was cancelled due to Covid Qantas were charging substantially more for Syd-Chc on the Emirates plane than what they were on their own metal

I am absolutely on the same page as you for the same reason. A330 flying out of Perth over pretty much every other plane, including so called "Dreamliners". 2-4-2 beats 3-3 and 3-3-3 any day of the week, or weekend.

I've got a week's accommodation booked in Hong Kong next month through Booking.com. Pay at hotel, not in advance. After booking I thought of cancelling and booking same hotel directly, but it's more expensive! However the particular hotel chain (Best Western) has a US website, and if I lived in...
