    AFF Qantas Club Membership

    Just on this, any help from AFF admins appreciated! I was able to sign up to this great corporate scheme last year, and am aware that it is due to expire at the end of August. Could someone please fill me in on the details to ensure my renewal is in on time? PM me with the details. Thanks!

    Best & cheap Business Class

    I'm flying back from Hanoi on MH business class. Worked out to be the same price to book two one way fares with economy there from ADL/ business back than if i was to book a return economy flight from Australia - go figure? I've flown MH before, they are great for longer day flights but weren't...

    High Sierra Rolling Backpack (carry on)

    I can also quote on the durability of High Sierra travel gear. I took a risk and bought a larger rollerboard/ backpack conversion for a rtw trip 18 months ago. I'm still using it on o/s trips and no visible wear or tear yet. This case went through rough baggage handlers, up footpaths and...

    Problem with NWA award flight (on MH)

    Hey Opusman I don't know why that problem would happen but from previous experience with MH, it could be anything, maybe inexperienced staff in Adelaide? Or the processing of the points. As anyone who flies MH know, they don't have e tickets and you normally wait till the last day for your old...

    Camera left in overhead locker

    You have to be careful with overhead luggage AT ALL TIMES during a flight. Last year when I was on a SYD LAX flight, halfway through the night someone on the opposite side of the cabin begun opening overhead storages and rifling around in seats far away from his own. The cabin was dark and I was...

    Is Star Class going to be removed from being QFF business equivalent?

    Trying to plan another Vietnam trip around June and thought I would consider going Jetstar with a hope of an upgrade on starclass either way to get some more status credits and points. To my surprise though (and maybe I have misinterpreted it) the QFF site table now lists the following: Frequent...

    Sick of Recliners?

    yeah, and on a recent MH flight, I was directly behind the bulkhead/exit row seats. the FAs constantly kept telling me and my neighbour to put our seats up, but consistently neglected the two in front who were the reason we were reclining! They had leg room and were able to recline while the...

    Finding budget airlines to be appealing

    I just don't know if I could bring myself to purchase a long haul flight to Asia from Aust. I just came back from Vietnam and chatted to some tourists from Perth who went to Ho Chi MInh CIty with Tiger. Whilst they admitted that paid a small price for the fare, they indicated that they wouldn't...

    Experience on Malaysian Airline for KUL -MEL Route

    I just came back from visiting my parter who's posted in Hanoi for 12 months and travelled on an MH ADL-KL-HANOI. I really wasn't keen to fly with MH, but at this time of year, flight availability for QF codeshare on Vietnam Airlines and Singapore out of any Australian city was impossible. I...

    Malaysia Airlines KL Stopover Hotel Voucher

    Hello I'm flying to Hanoi on Malaysia Airlines boxing day. I have to stay overnight in KL and apparantley the airline provides a voucher for a hotel for the night. The travel agent hasn't given me this voucher yet. Has anyone ever used this system? If so, which hotels do they give you as...

    Qantas "letting us down", says SA tourism chief

    I have to agree that Qantas need to lift their game in Adelaide. International flights out of Adelaide on the other carriers tend to be full, so i'm unsure why Qantas continues to neglect this route. It is also disappointing that there isn't a separate Qantas Club for international departures...

    Qantas Club Price Rise

    I agree entirely that it's not every child that is a problem. I often see well behaved kids that are quiet and enjoying themselves without disrupting others.

    Qantas Club Price Rise

    I agree on the lounge set up Commuter. My partner and I recently took a quick flight to Melbourne a couple of Friday night's ago and the Adelaide QC was filled with couples taking up four lounges with their jackets/ luggage - we were banished to the benches. On this occasion, there were too many...

    Australia to Hanoi on Qantas codeshare

    Wondering if anyone has this knowledge... My boyfriend is making me a widow for 12 months and is starting a position in Hanoi soon. I intend to visit him at least three times. As a QFF and qantas club member, I am wondering if anyone is aware of Qantas codeshare flights servicing Hanoi? I know...

    Flat beds in Economy??

    Give me a window seat in economy anyday. I agree with comments that say it looks like a morgue. Surely airlines desire to attract customers by making their economy and business classes more similar/closer to the class above, as opposed to creating a unique, bizarre experience that will make...

    Need to find a Qantas Club corp. program

    Thanks for the advice of quoting the FF number at the lounge if we don't get the kits in time for our next trip. I'm flying out this Friday and was starting to feel anxious! Feels great to be a founding member. :p

    BA versus Qantas?

    I finished an economy RTW trip at the beginning of this year (late Jan - early March). I flew on Qantas codeshare flights. For two of the legs, i flew BA. IT WAS AWFUL. I don't agree with the mandatory online check in (which we were unable to access due to having booked with qantas) - as a...

    Londoners fear misery at Heathrow Airport

    I've never had an issue with Heathrow Airport. Has always been easy to navigate etc. On the other hand, Gatwick was terrible the last time I used it (March 07), security was a nightmare.
