Qantas are offering double status points however the fare options very high especially considering the abundance of empty seats on Expert Flyer. I have looked at PER FRA return in June, Saver fare is around $3200 using Qantas into LHR - same applies in November 1582607947 I think Qantas have...

Returning Qantas YVR to SYD. On New Years Eve, Boarding 7.10pm for a 8pm flight. OW emerald and OW sapphire members were denied access to BA Galleries at YVR on the explanation from reception that club was “full”. It did not look full. A guest just left the lounge as we walked away. I asked...

All Cathay Club lounges are worth a visit. My favourite, especially for long layovers is the Pier lounge. It has a great relaxation area at one end where one can stretch out and have a nap - perfect.

If you are travelling about to see the sights I would have thought the reason you are travelling would be tourism.

I would suggest a visa is the way to go. I have applied for my third ETSA (the previous ones had expired) and did so prior to the recent "executive order" , I also used to have a green card but gave it up several years ago. As I attended a trade show in Iran in April 2016 after the trade...

I believe passes can still be purchased however, to be on the safe side I suggest you call Air New Zealand and ask them. I had a hiccup as I was told payment by ANZ that payment for pass was cash only. It turned out it was credit card only. Good Luck AVM

I am not sure if this is will help explain things, last time we took a Qantas flight to Singapore 2 of the party were Qantas Club members and the third was not. The booking for the 3rd person was made separately. When we looked at seating a few days before not a lot was available, when we did on...

I have purchased an E ticket from Perth to Chicago on an overseas site of a well known online travel company. I called first to see if it was OK or if I had to use their Australian site. All was OK and I saved around $1000 over what I could purchase the identical flights and dates for on the...

My son who has just turned 16 will be flying from Perth to Chicago with Air New Zealand - he has a 10 hour layover in Auckland with outgoing travel time of around 33 hours. Is there a pass available for the Koru Club. My other option is to book a day room at a motel however he then needs to...

From my experience your international baggage entitlement may not carry through to RNO unless you can check your baggage through to RNO from SYD, and this would be at the diescretion of the airline . If your flights were all ticketed together then the international baggage entitlement would...

See if BA has an arrangement with AA, the AA lounge is wonderful, I was unimpressed with Qantas Club. AVM

I took a fare PER to YVR via Narita with Qantas and Northwest. As the layover in Tokyo was several hours I had complimentary use of the Northwest lounge. I must compliment Northwest on a stunning, beautifully appointed and run lounge. Qantas should take a page out of Northwest (Delta's) book...

This happened to me last year - my partner signed up as Qantas AMEX Platinum and I was made a supplementary card holder. I decided there was no point in two AMEX cards so decided to cancel my Ultimate Card. The gentleman at AMEX said because I had a good spend history they would refund the...

I like the Zuji website as the fares quoted include taxes.

I was looking for fare Perth to Vancouver several weeks ago for travel April 14, initially the best I could get was around $2300, Qantas had come down from about $3000 to around $2600 and several other airlines were a little below that. I was not locked to an airline but do like to use Qantas...

Your posting is very interesting, when I had to cancel with Best Flights I asked for a breakdown of fees as website indicated optional from $165 plus airline charges, the units of breakdown were airline/BF Best flights and ticketing office cancellation fee combined $475.00 Royal...

I need to fly to Vancouver in April, I am a Qantas FF and Qantas Club member. PER to LAX is $1900 with Qantas, PER to YVR $2720 with Qantas, with the internal flight LAX YVR on Alaskan. If I buy the $1900 ticket I can book on the same LAX - YVR flights with Alaskan for $477. Is there a...

I have also had a problem with Best Flights, I always check ticket change and cancellation costs before I book, I have had to change a date before but never cancel, unfortunately insurance did not cover the cancellation. The airline cancellation fee was $150, on Best Flights website (if your...

Thanks everyone for your input. I will be taking it further with BF, AVM

As always before I book a fare I read the conditions of booking which included changes to fare and cancellation policy, I have never had to cancel a fare but have had to alter a return date or two and always consider costs before booking. "We also reserve the right to charge a minimum...
