    Soft landing after QF platinum?

    I'm currently WP with Qantas and have been for a few years now. Looks unlikely that I'll earn much this year with them, possibly not even enough for a Gold status...

    Hi all, Just wondering if anyone's noticed any good deals from Europe-Aus in early Jan 2014? Don;t mind where in europe if the deal is good enough. Try to stick to Oneworld, and Finnair's normally the best (pricewise) I've found in the past. Anyone got any good suggestions? Any 'unusual'...

Any ideas why they'd change just this flight for just this day? Reverts to QF10 the next day. No change in aircraft from...

    Someone on another forum has noted that QF30 LHR-HKG-MEL schedule has changed from a lunchtime departure to a late evening departure, just after QF10 LHR-SIN-MEL. (starts next March/April) Any reason why they'd do this? From what I can see, the MEL-HKG-LHR isn't changing schedule. I've...
