    Article: Qatar Airways’ Bizarre Daily Melbourne-Adelaide Flight

    Had this happen with QR out of Manila earlier this year on a revenue J classic ticket. We did not pay for seat selection either and just chose to roll the dice at check in. When check in opened, no seats were available to select. When we got to the counter the following day it turned out that...

    Qantas Promises to Fix Ongoing Reward Flight Ticketing Failures

    Used the social media chats to add an infant to two separate reward bookings and it was astonishingly straight forward, all showing up on the app and to my surprise only have to pay $110 in fees, we expected fees around 10% of the revenue fare (~$1300 based on the cost of the two one way flights...

    Stuffed up! Haneda - Narita transfer

    You'll be fine, I've done a 4.5hr transfer from Narita to Haneda a few years ago. I took one of the limousine buses that goes via Haneda and had plenty of time spare.

    Yeah we flew return in QF J to Manila this March, got the seats around October.

    Need advice: QF downgraded my class of travel on an award booking by mistake but won't correct it

    Can you even contact them through the email without calling in the first place? I thought the email was for escalations only? I need to add an infant to various award bookings and I'm dreading any issues from calling such as @fairbasa.

    Best use of points

    You essentially paid around 2c per point which I feel is on par with what they're worth. What's letting you down is that you spent quite a lot of points on a fairly cheap revenue fare.

    Article: How to Use Qatar Airways Avios

    It’s just so odd though as there’s tons of availability in and out of Doha to all European cities but no way to connect to those flights from NA or Aus. Not sure what Qatar is achieving by doing this.

    Transfer bonus from Amex to Qatar Privilege Club

    So I've been playing around trying to understand what's going on, it seems that Qatar has pulled almost all availability between North America - Doha and Australia - Doha, it doesn't matter which direction you look at. According to seats.aero, in the next 12 months there's 2 J reward flights...

    Yeah I’m really curious what’s going on, all availability for next 12 months is gone.

    Article: How to Use Qatar Airways Avios

    It's the same case even when looking at flights to/from Asia and looking at less popular European destinations such as Warsaw or Belgrade so I doubt it's all Amex related. No J availability on BA website either. I changed a few of my bookings for flights 6 months out few weeks ago and was able...

    Article: How to Use Qatar Airways Avios

    Is it me or has Qatar drastically reduced their saver reward availability? Pretty much every day now is a Flex Award, this wasn't the case a week ago.

    Citi Prestige Bonus Point Offers & Discussion

    My wife and I have the prestige and in both cases points were credited in the following statement after reaching minimum spend. If all your transactions were eligible then it might be a potential issue on their end.

    Qantas lies to a full-fare paying J-class pax and downgrades to Y-class

    Had a similar situation where 1 out of our 2 reward seats in J got bumped to Y on our Syd - Adl flight. Got told it was due to a configuration change which was incorrect as the amount of seats was identical. Getting a resolution from Qantas that you’re satisfied with will take a lot of your...

    The Qantas Newbie Questions Thread

    Hey, I have a few award bookings that I need to add an infant to, these were all booked with QFF but are on JAL and Air France. From what I understand to add an infant I'll need to call up Qantas, but does anyone know if I need to call up Qantas or the operating carrier to reserve a bassinet?

    30% bonus Avios points on transfers

    Might have to wait till the next one, most likely in 6 months time. Some comments on OMAAT are saying that this promo potentially finished early as all mentions of it were taken off the website around the 25th. My wife transferred around that time so I’m hoping that’s not the case.

    Credit Card Points Transfer to QR

    Citi Prestige is 3:1 to QRPC so also not great but the free Payall at $20k a month makes up for it at the moment.
