Skyscanner is not accurate for a lot of things for a start. The following are still empty on QR989/18FEB... 1A, 2B/D/G, 3E/F, 4D/G, 5E/F, 6D/G, 7E/F, 8A/D/G, 9E/F, 10D/G/K

For clarity, yes, there is a website bug where if you start in NZ, it seems to treat it as Australia as the country of origin which is obviously incorrect. However, more generally, once you return to your country of origin, you can still add segments but they must be purely domestic. So for...

Correct. If you want to be bending rules or doing anything unusual or uncommon you pretty much need a clued up TA to execute it for you now unless you want to spend a lot of time banging your head on walls with useless contact centre staff.

It won't be fixed. It was a deliberate change to the security levels between QR and QF. If you happen to use a TA who knows how to push PNRs to the QF app, then they can push it to your QF app.

Ah yes, AY does. JL don't hard enforce it in the system. It's only soft enforced by the queue comber. QF/AY are literally 'computer says no and no is no'.

QF hard enforces the boarding group. I don't think anyone else in oneworld does.

Most codeshares can be fine - if you have a good agent that knows what they're doing with them. If not, then it's better to avoid them.

They do work, but you have to make sure that it's added into the correct one of the three PNRs. I would say on average that it's beyond the capability of 99% of passengers and 99% of travel agents.

I strongly advise to not book the VA wet leases in particular. There's technical issues galore with them. There can be up to 3 PNRs that exist for a single passenger to be booked on just one VA wet lease flight. Eg. as the selling agent, I sell one pax on VA1. This creates a PNR in Amadeus...

If it's a QR blockspace codeshare operated by AY, AY has a different record locator. That's a Sabre "feature" and affects all Sabre carriers. Sabre does not deal with simultaneous changes very well hence this lockout exists.

Tomorrow is still under the old seating rules.

Book yourself as another passenger rather than yourself. That is, make a booking for "another passenger" and put your own name in. The other alternate is ask your friendly travel agent if you have a good relationship with one.

FQTS functionality is defined, but not enabled for any of the oneworld carriers. It's only used by Star Alliance and even then it's only a small number of carriers that have it enabled eg. SQ and NH. What's wrong with shopping with multiple memberships on one PNR? There's quite a few people on...

This is incorrect. The system goes by your live boarding group number, which is based on your cabin and status in the system at the time of boarding. For example you have a paper BP printed that says group 1, you then get your FF number swapped for a no status FF number, and are therefore...

They are still loading the pricing parameters, but here's what you can expect for flights from 6th Feb: B738: Y+ rows are rows 4-9. Exit rows are rows 12-13. Preferred rows are rows 10-11, 14-15. Bronze can see rows 7-9, 11-13, and 15 onwards. Can pay for Y+ rows 7-9, exit rows 12-13 and...

A DONE4 can potentially also be less restrictive then a QF oneworld award. They trade blows - there's itineraries that can be done on a DONE4 but not on a QF oneworld award and vice versa. For example you can stopover in the same port up to 5 times on a DONE4 which you can't do on a QF oneworld...

They currently lose out on closer to travel international J sales because of a lack of domestic J capacity in a B738 so it'll depend on their priorities. It's not just purely domestic service that needs to be considered.

24h or less is a transit. 24h1m or more is a stopover.

Once ETIAS starts, that'll effectively come to an end.

The CX website often drops the leading zeroes in a FF number so if you have a number that begins with a 0, you need to get CX to delete and re-add the number with the correct number including the leading zeroes. It's not just QFF that's affected, BA has numbers beginning with zero as well.
