    PER to Europe in J - Need advice

    MH have better times in both directions. But PER -> KUL return in J is $4670. Absolutely absurd. I'll see what happens to the price if I try booking all the flights. I have connected through KUL in the past and the airport hotel is very easy to access. I prefer the MH times to those of QF...

    PER to Europe in J - Need advice

    I want to stay in a hotel overnight between flights. I have found some QF/EK combinations with good times but the costs are eye wateringly high, >$10000. I need oxygen for all flights so will have an oxygen concentrator, and at night I use a CPAP machine. The sticking point is QF to and from...

    I tried to buy top up points but Qantas will not credit them to my account.

    RichardMEL, thank you for your excellent suggestions. I need to fly in an A330 in seat 7E as I require oxygen during flight. I take a hired oxygen concentrator but also pay for Qantas to provide oxygen at $110 per flight. I do this as a backup in case the flight has to be rerouted or the...

    I tried to buy top up points but Qantas will not credit them to my account.

    Thank you for the very interesting tips about Alaskan Airlines and Finnair. Do their points convert to QFF points? I mostly travel domestically these days due to health and mobility problems. I flew to Melbourne for Easter, it was my first flight for over 3 years and I had a great time. But...

    I tried to buy top up points but Qantas will not credit them to my account.

    I can only fly Business these days. So I am happy buying points as that way it costs around $750 per flight rather than $1750 or more. My recent purchase of $3999 for 225000 points gets me 5.4 flights. Plus I can't travel without my daughter due to health and mobility considerations. So I also...

    I tried to buy top up points but Qantas will not credit them to my account.

    Dijidoo, sorry to hear that you're having a similar problem to mine. My issue was finally sorted out after 12 or so phone calls over 3 weeks. Very frustrating as there was a large amount of money involved. The delays were two fold. One was that after I explained the situation to the operator...

    I tried to buy top up points but Qantas will not credit them to my account.

    I received an email from Qantas on March 20 offering a 50% bonus for top up points. On March 22, I tried to buy 150000 + 75000 bonus points for $3999. The points have not been credited to my account, but the $3999 has appeared on my Qantas AMEX bill. I rang Qantas twice on March 21 and was told...

    Australian Reports of the Virus Spread

    At last, someone with enough insight to speak of WA as it should be spoken of. Thank you, Pushka. I was thinking seriously about unsubscribing from many threads because of the incessant negativity about WA. We have enjoyed virtually no locally acquired Covid, hardly any lockdowns, hardly any...

    Vaccine Rollout in Australia - personal accounts.

    My husband had AZ, AZ then the Moderna booster on Wednesday. On Thursday morning, he had some major dental work and felt a bit off. Not sure if it was the dental work or the Moderna. I had AZ, AZ then a Pfizer booster this morning. No reaction, not even a sore arm. They know me well at the...

    I have a little dilemma. Should I add to my CBA shares after selling about half in the buyback? So averaging up. Or should I buy more WBC shares and average down.
