EU261 delay compensation does not apply until 3 hrs. So a 2:59hr (arrival) delay has no compensation. And nothing for extraordinary delay (like ATC as happens at SYD more than it should = AU fed govt control/problem) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Passengers_Rights_Regulation If EC261 and...

Why HND? QF fly to NRT from MEL & BNE. QF upgrades are *never* guaranteed JQ Business, about equal to QF premium economy, can be OK for a day time flight. Look at DrRon's recent trip report. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Qantas_destinations...

Have always read these were utes. Not wagons, Suspect a private conversion. https://www.service.transport.qld.gov.au/checkrego/application/VehicleResult.xhtml?dswid=948 https://xrclub.com/5492-2/ https://www.tradeuniquecars.com.au/ford-falcon-xy-4wd-todays-oddball-tempter/

At times a JQ flight with a bundle can be better $ per SC and/or less cost than a QF flight.

My understanding QF3 SYD-JFK, if that is what on the e-ticket, counts as 1 segment and will earn as SYD-JFK. Not 2 segments AKL-AKL, AKL-JFK

Subscribed to the thread. A busy 26 days. AKL has airside transit, but at CHC not offered. Will need to process NZ immigration, customs and biosecurity and then upstairs to process NZ security and emigration. Manaia lounge is to the right. Is QF3 ticketed as SYD -JFK or as 2 flights?

Starting from where in AU? Class of travel? Is earning ff points/miles/avios a consideration? Or not important and cost a factor?

As post above, JQ do not have a transfer desk at SYD T1. Only JQ can/will put the passenger on another [JQ] flight

LA do/will fly SCL-SYD non stop and will end AKL-SYD. LA already fly SCL-MEL

From Point Hacks (owner of aFF) https://www.pointhacks.com.au/news/melbourne-airport-plans-to-close-its-infamous-lounge-dungeon/ So do not see QF spending any $$ on updating the MEL QF International lounge (on level 1 about 6m above grade)

way off topic So they applied the ticket t&c's and you complain 😕 You can buy more carry on allowance

RNZ Jetstar fined more than $2 million for misleading customers over compensation JQ NZ only have a few aircraft and operate limited NZ domestic routes

95% of frequent flyers members do not make any effort, nor do they understand the broad details. Let alone the fine details. like DCS's. Here of aFF we are in the 2%~3%~4%~5% of members who make it work for us. We need those 95% to contribute so we can use the benefits. Most to all ffp's are...

off topic Your nearest airport? You will be getting a loyalty SC gift bonus by 30 Sept at the latest. https://www.qantas.com/au/en/frequent-flyer/status-and-clubs/status/loyalty-gift-2025-FAQ.html And the normal 50SC or points for every 500SC (subject to t&c's) This is changing

Or the QF IT kids on work experience found it too hard to program? Given other DSC's did go to the life time count. The same same with loyalty gift as post 258 by Princess Fiona ? For me inching towards LTG this makes a difference. More inclined to book a few select AU<-->NZ business class...

https://www.qantasnewsroom.com.au/media-releases/qantas-orders-20-new-a321xlr-aircraft-16-with-lie-flat-business-seats/ Ordering aircraft from EU and not USA may anger 1 person. In recent weeks some countries/govt owned airlines have ordered B737s with fanfare.

As a J passenger you have lounge access. If the 3year old has J seat she has lounge access. QF lounges give access to accompanied children, but less common for partner lounges. Worth asking politely...

https://www.alaskaair.com/atmosrewards/content/benefits/2026-updates With some of AS text not always 100% clear if about status or redeemable points. To use the word "points" as both a measure of status earning and the quantity for redeemable awards is confusing (as was "miles" for both). For...
