Acknowledged, that is the latest version of what I posted. The one I posted, clearly stated the Federal Governments change in position in respect to Norfolk. It stated “From 1 July 2016, travel to Norfolk Island from mainland Australia will be classed as domestic travel”. The updated version you...

Yes, acknowledging it is a special case in terms of a lot of things, but, personally, I don’t think any of these special cases form an adequate definition in terms of “domestic travel”. Acknowledged. My point was that Qantas was using close proximity to another country to form their opinion of...

I have travelled to Norfolk Island a bunch of times since Qantas took over the route and more often than not via J Classic Award. I only just noticed on this occasion that I am receiving 24 Status Credits for the flight (Points Club), which indicates an international destination, instead of the...

I added it to the charity donation in Dec and that worked…… tried again just now and it still looks like that works…. Not sure why?

I can confirm Dragon Pass is accepted at the lounge. The lounge also accepts Business Class passengers on Singapore airlines flights and it accepts Fiji Airways Business class as well as passengers with OneWorld sapphire, travelling on Fiji Airways. The staff advised that while this lounge is...

Applied recently (4 weeks ago) application process easy….. the only thing that surprised me was, it required a person to person phone call to enable Apple Pay. Everything else easy

Welcome to AFF Your challenges are: Citi Credit Card converts 2:1, so you have 98,000 Velocity Points. (Singapore conversion is worse) Velocity requires 80,000 points to get a one way economy. Sept is very close (in terms of Award seats) and is School holidays, so would normally be quite hard...

Unclear to me....... I definitely align myself to being a typical AFF in terms of most things and certainly in terms of redemptions...... but in terms of earning status, I earn enough on strictly domestic economy flying for work to get gold on both airlines - gives me good diversity and serves...

Is that $99 fare in J ?

Yes. it makes sense to an airline focused 100% on revenue/profit......... it does not make sense (to me) for an airline focused on loyalty/customer service!!! these are the things that establish your brand, create trust and a long-term relationship with your customer........ which will...

Request that the starlink/inflight wifi/cell service, be turned off, so you can go to sleep.

That one is a "Credit Card" - so no using I want to cancel type words......

Yes. National Consumer Credit Protection Act 2009, Section 133BV - "The licensee who is the credit provider under the credit card contract must not suggest that the consumer remain in the credit card contract" AND " The licensee who is the credit provider under the credit card contract must...

Have a read of this thread https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/threads/flight-availability-loadings-upgrade-probability-help-desk.25311/

Welcome to AFF. Your first credit card adventure, sounds like a challenge....... - Points crediting in 5 weeks - risky - you need to apply, be successful, get the card, spend on the card and get your end of month statement, before you get the points. You will then need to transfer these points...

I believe that is the argument being put forward - That the status run contingent is not big enough (on any single fight) to trigger the need for extra flights, all they are doing is improving the load factors on a small contingent of existing flights. Fully appreciate the reverse argument as...

100% agree. For some of us, flying is a recreational activity - yes, we actually enjoy the activity of flying and sometimes more than the destination. Status runs allow you to participate in your recreational activity and make your next flights even more enjoyable (with the status it brings)...

Assuming you take the SYD to SFO option; how about OAK to SEA, on Alaska Airlines? On the 22nd Dec, there is QF reward availability for four people (14K each)...... and if your ultimate destination is actually Kelowna, you can get there from OAK via SEA with QF reward availability...... but...

Yep, understood that. Just using "Dash 8" in the broad sense - Should have said "Dash 8 (200 series)" which is how they are referred to by Qantas...... they all feel the same to me when I am squished inside......

Look like they are just using the Dash 8 that is being transferred to Skytrans for the Lord Howe flights...... so looks like an extension to what has been announced https://www.qantasnewsroom.com.au/media-releases/lord-howe-island-flights/
