    BKK transfer question.... MH to CZ

    I have a flight from ADL to BKK on MH and am looking to book a separate flight on CZ which leaves 90 minutes after arrival in BKK, to JFK via CAN. Will they interline my bags through to JFK in Adelaide if I ask, and is there a transfer counter at BKK to save me having to clear immigration...

    What would you like in the new Qantas safety video?

    How about a mash up of footage of Andrew Bogut on the basketball court, Greg Norman on the golf course, Mark Webber on the race track, Cathy Freeman on the running track, Miranda Kerr on the cat walk and John Travolta on a film set? Then they could all come together at the end, and say something...

    Article: Qantas banking on Asia strategy

    Cookies must be enabled. | The Australian For me, quite likely one of the most ridiculous statement I've heard from an airline executive, ever: But the executives believe the demand is there and Qantas can now better serve it with services that include double daily flights from Sydney...

    Being a frugal traveller

    Learning to use the local public transport system, using my 28 degrees card to get local currency and using my credit card insurance always saves me lots of coin

    Sydney to New York

    I would choose QF 107 through to JFK. The LAX -JFK sector is usually pretty empty so you'll probably have at least 1 if not 2 spare seats next to you to make the long trip somewhat more bearable. Also, food and entertainment are far superior to the US offerings. Although sure LAX is a...

    Birthday ideas in Singapore

    At Universal Studios, the line up for the popular rides were massive when we went, which was a normal weekday. For an extra $30, the express pass was well worth it. Saved hours lining up, and got through all the major rides. Without the passes, we would have been lucky to get through half of...

    Anti semitism in Dubai

    The Arab world denies the existence of Israel, and as a result, will deny all Israeli citizens (spiritual home of Jewish people) right of entry in to their country. So how can state-sanctioned racism not be any more clear cut than this?

    Anti semitism in Dubai

    Happy to stand corrected, that Jewish people are not banned from entering Dubai. However, the fact remains that Isreal is the homeland of the Jewish people. So by banning Israelis, you are effectively telling all Jews to p*ss off, you are not welcome here. And in any case, banning Israelis...

    Anti semitism in Dubai

    I'm not Jewish myself, but I find it incredibly disturbing that a supposedly modern, first world city like Dubai still bans Jews from entering their country. For this reason alone, I will never fly Qantas (or any other UAE carrier) through Dubai, as I would feel like I would be condoning such...

    Qantas SYD&MEL to SIN $510 ret ($410 through .br site)

    Factoring in current fuel prices and inflation, even $700 return to Singapore is historically, extremely low for a full service airline and likely to be loss making at these prices...a sign that Qantas yields to SE Asia are under significant pressure after the Emirates hook up

    Qantas SYD&MEL to SIN $510 ret ($410 through .br site)

    After killing off the Asian transits to Europe, Qantas must be bleeding passengers for them to continue offering such ridiculous (and obviously loss making) prices to the SE Asian routes. How long is it sustainable for?

    Your NAB Qantas Platinum Card is Changing.

    But product swap is not considered a new card. Sure you get a new number and different coloured card, but its not a new card application, so bonus points offer wouldn't apply. All banks are the same with this respects - as I just found out with cba when I upgraded my card and lost my 0%...
