    Middle East Airspace Diversions/Cancellations

    Sorry, nothing special Most airlines between EUrope and parts of Asia and Ocenia including QF, SQ, CX, MH are doing the same - even before the conflict started. It is a normal Airroute. JL and NH can go via Alaska/Greenland

    Retirement Planning & Experiences

    You would need to create a TTR account from where you receive your tax free payments You can move between 4% and 10% each year from your super accumulation account into the TTR account but you dont have to spend all of it. So your $250K TTR should be within 4-10% of your total super balance if...

    Middle East Airspace Diversions/Cancellations

    MstrQS2 said his SQ flight from SYD-SIN and SIN-LHR was completely full. I suspect when A380s are not operational it is difficult /impossible to find seats on other airlines

    Which other AU carrier has unused pre - allocated landing slots into any UK level 3 airport? The only way is for the ME airlines to temporarily assign its slots to an AU carrier, or for the Airport coordination authority to provide some dispensation.

    Yes but not to LHR with QF flight number as QF is maxed out on its LHR slots (unless BA happy to relinquish its leased slots). Could the ME airlines lease QF their slots?

    Qantas swaps Upcoming Flight A330 for A321XLR

    When QF is planning for 1/3 of its XLR fleet to be J lie flat, there is a good chance that any booking on a lie flat XLR can be easily subbed by a non lie flat XLR at the last minute.

    Sure and lets say all the rules regarding limiting foreign airlines operating out of another contry are relaxed, their base is DOH. All their Cabin crew/ pilots, infrastructure, services are based there. Even if they could move to another base - say Singapore, how are they going to move their...

    Middle East Airspace Diversions/Cancellations

    See the line in the red colour - your 4th A380 is that one. Hidden in the clouds so to speak. Can these aircraft be used for any flights while stranded here. ..... I reckon the Georgia ATC must be very busy

    Qantas does Vegas direct

    If budget concious reconsider even going to LAS. As I understand it, the place is going upmarket wihc is one reason given for the drop off in visitor numbers into LAS Based on QF long thin routes, i cant imagine QF-LAS being competitive on price.

    Qantas does Vegas direct

    I dont think it is enough of a hub for me to consider LAS as a jumping point to other places especially when it is seasonal ands not a daily flight. If I want to go West coast , Ill go non stop west coast.

    Bullet holes in 737-Max

    The reports Ive seen suggest "a puncture/ bullet hole " not "bullet holes" The picture is fake because the holes are identical, the wing too clean and the lines too straight and is from above the wing - no person would be able to get that view . AI fake
