Well you're factually incorrect - so in trying to prove a point - at least say the right thing. This doesn't apply to 'all passengers' - it applies to 'all passengers from China'. Secondly, people who are traveling from China who test positive will need to defer travel; not ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE...

Well Australia has all but forgotten about Covid - pre-departure and post-arrival testing no longer are required from anywhere. Hell, you don't even need to be vaccinated anymore to enter the country. In July, literally every covid test/requirement was ditched for travellers. Australia basically...

If you disagree - what is your evidence?

The restrictions/requirements for travellers from China is racial and there is no evidence otherwise. Some of the comments here to try and justify these new restrictions don't hold up when you (a) consider the vast majority of medical professionals have actually spoken AGAINST these...

In general I think the UK Telegraph is trash and run by mostly racist and xenophobic management, however, I do agree that next year may be 'interesting' from an aviation standpoint. Unfortunately, a good 4 - 6 months after we all thought we saw the "last of covid", it seems like testing...

I can't imagine it will because while supply does increase a little in the form of Chinese carriers, demand will also increase significantly - so I can't see how prices will come down until carriers globally are flying their full compliment of aircraft - if that ever actually happens.

So if I go and select seat 4A for example on the A332 from MEL-PER, I'll still have 11A from PER-LHR? I'm 10 mins from MEL airport - would it be prudent of me to go the airport tomorrow and talk to QF staff there who are able to sort out operational items like this? The staff on the line are...

Thanks @TheInsider and @Princess Fiona - I also added my conundrum with the seat selection. I'm supposed to be 11A on the B789 and the seat map on my booking now only shows the A332 map with 4A being the only option available. I called QF and the agents I'm speaking to still think it is only 1...

UPDATE So an update for everyone - I managed to change this to flight to a Friday on QF9 and until today it was showing a B789 from MEL to LHR, however, I just logged on now and it is showing as QF9 all the way but the MEL-PER leg is now a A332! What the hell is going on with QF? Has this...

Just out of interest, are you doing all of this in one day?

Hahaha - I'd be lying if it was going to be any other way haha. 1668671988 This happened to me as well once when I was flying from Sydney to LHR via MEL.

Thanks for that info - obviously it's a first world problem, I just want to spend as much time as possible in the QF F lounge - MEL is my personal favourite. I'll aim to get there 4.5 hrs before and see if I can check in and will report back.

Hi All, I've seen a thread on this in 2018/19 - but it has been closed so I had to start this thread. I was wondering if QF still enforces a 3-hr check in limit for QF flights out of MEL? I'm flying QF9 and I was hoping to check in 4-5 hrs earlier if possible?

I called Velocity today and they said I will get the Platinum status (I have already completed 3 flights and learnt 200 SC this month), however, I'm pretty concerned because there is no where I can see that says this. They told me I would get the status when the 3-month period ends, which is 16...

Damn this definitely didn't happen to me. I'll need to call them then. Has anyone else done this challenge from BA Gold or hasn't gotten the correct challenge (i.e. showing gold when they should have been enrolled into platinum challenge)?

Has anyone yet completed the 200 SC challenge and gotten platinum yet? I ask because I status matched from BA Gold (equivalent to QF Platinum) and on my app it shows the amount of SC I need to hit gold only and not platinum. I also got an email today from Virgin giving me a Status Update. In...

Just an update for all following at home. Nothing could be done with RJ and eventually we had to book different seats on a different airline and different date. Qantas customer service agents including supervisors have been an absolute disgrace and the way this has played out has been beyond...

Hi @papeto - I've just been reading this thread and I will also be aiming to do something similar, so I'm keenly following this. Best of luck, hope this works out for you and Qantas loses big on this. Qantas have really treated so many customers like we are worthless and when someone has...

In my family we have some more Qantas points we are looking to burn but we have stopped collecting them. I've taken up the Virgin Australia status challenge and will look to stick with earning Virgin points and AMEX membership rewards points. The biggest perk of QFF points were EK and QR...

Actually there were two award seats and then they went to one award seats and there are still revenue seats in business only. I've been able to book and get the one award seat ticketed. The revenue seats are extremely expensive (over 2k for a 2hr flight). Three different managers/supervisors...
