Hi fellow FFers, Just want to see if you concur.... that personal status "top-up" run, just to achieve / keep a status for future benefits especially for Y travel is a waste of money, I believe for most of us 1. work pays for J travel, in this case all the benefits such as lounge access /...

I am not trying to kill myself in the hotel room ? We all know, as part of a status run, sometimes we need to stay overnight, and to save personal non deductable funds I usually travel alone, often check in very late, for one night.... I always get a funny, sometimes worrying look by the check...

soon to be SG, and will be flying myself, wife and kid on CX to/from SYD <=> HKG. under Frequent Flyer - Flying Qantas and Partner Airlines - Status Credits and Tier Benefits - Tier Benefits it is not clear whether three of us will have access to the HKG Qantas lounge because under 1. there are...

Hello all, this time I really need your help, I am currently Silver and need 120 SC before 30 June to get Gold. what is the cheapest way to get it ? thanks a lot in advance !

Have anyone used trip.com ? I was browsing for fares for the peak Christmas period, being a multi stop plan complicates it a bit, basically I need to go SYD->HKG, then HKG->TOKYO, then TOKYO->SYD. Qantas.com can sell me an open jaw with CX for HKG->NRT leg... at a price of course if I book it...

Soon I will be travelling QF J in A380. Thanks to our company policy and I think the fare recently has become competitive, in the past they are always dearer than CX or AA J so I can pick their 1-2-1 cirrus rather than QF's 2-2-2, Flights will be QF 11 and 12. Just some quick questions and...

Like many of you I am trying hard to use the $400 credit, having flights and hotels already booked. It make sense to book a serious of airports transfers both to and from airports to use the $400, however I run into serious problems which is basically a website design fault by Amex, I will still...

I have done lots of places for personal travel already. Given the recent cramping of Y seats for most airlines, and the PE seats are quite similar to the old days Y. J is the answer. How do you guys score discount J fares ? I guess I don't have to stick with any particular airlines so it could...

anyone use this before ? I want to hear from fellow FFers as we are very good at reviewing seats....:p I wonder how clean these pods can be ?

Hello all, I have a QFF account, have lots of points, but usually through credit card spend. I fly around 6 trips yearly on different airlines. for the purpose of redeeming flights, should I credit this upcoming CX J trip SYD<=>LHR to QFF or start Asia Miles ? thanks

Hello all, you probably can answer me within 1 second for this question, I will be flying SYD->HKG->LHR and return on CX J soon, I have been accumulating points on QFF because of credit card spend etc etc, but for flying mostly on other airlines. Should I join asiamiles or credit this to QFF...

Booked J SYD LHR via HKD of course, AUD 78XX return, it is the same price if you do a s/o in HKG. However, if you just book SYD HKG J, is about 6xx_, not so much difference, however you miss another 24 hrs of J time, and UK visit. If you just book HKG LHR, it is about 47xx_ HKD, which is...

Looking for return flight to mainland USA around early April, searched all the .au sites averages from 16XX all inclusive. However switch to US sites such as priceline.com and expedia.com, few airlines such as delta and united are at much cheaper fares from USD 12XX (AUD 13XX)... just FYI...

hello all, just a quick question, I have an award booking with Qantas for 2 pax, now I want to cancel the 2nd pax's ticket, called Qantas and told them what I wanted and they told me they will split the bookings and cancel the 2nd pax ticket.... however this morning under my bookings seciton...

Greetings all AFFers, I know I am going to get about 30,000-60,000 pts, now have to decide either to Krisflyer or to QFF. QFF is what I always have, I know for Xmas flights (i.e. from 15-23 Dec), SYD=>HKG (1 way) would require 30,000-36,000 pts under classic economy awards and have to book in...

Happy weekend all, I am looking at joining a tour of Egypt / Middle east from HKG, I am planning to go back to AUS HKG=>SIN=>MEL etc , On the way back from the tour it will be SQ CAI=>DXB=>SIN=>HKG. Just wondering what will happen if I decide to ditch the tour packaged flight SIN=>HKG ? (save...

Hi all, I don't use SYD T1 very often, can anyone tell me are there any QF service desk after immigration / near the gates which can let me cancel an award flight ? I know phoning them is an option however I do not want to wait... Also I might search and try to change to another award flight to...

I just did a quick trip from and to Sydney airport, now they are not only booking cars who pick up in drop off (departures) area, they are giving tickets to Passengers !!! They will just walk up to the pax who looks like they are waiting for cars at the drop off (departure) area and ask them...

As a mostly self funded traveller, I always value full service providers and book with them when the price is right, therefore I check QF.com frequently, I have noticed that from time to time they will have a domestic sale, say SYD<=>MEL, and I suspect that the frequency is about once every...

Please share your experience. Recently I booked a car for 2 days to be picked up from LHR on 25/Dec/2009. Only QF.com allows me to reserve a car this far ahead. (given the lack of transport options during Xmas day there) Thanks
