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...

In 2014, I was banned from cruising for 2 years and from visiting America. The cruising ban was lifted after a year but not visiting America. And now I have been temporarily banned by Qantas. Qantas Special Handling emailed and then rang me a day after my last flight (MEL to PER) to inform me...

A few months ago, I booked on QF772 on an A330, returning on QF475, also an A330. I bought a discounted economy ticket for myself and my daughter and upgraded myself to J using points. My daughter had a bulkhead seat booked in Y, which is what she likes. A month or so before Christmas, I...

I am flying on QF772 tomorrow. I purchased a fully flex fare and applied for a points upgrade to Business. I chose an Economy seat and when I looked this evening my seat had become available again. However, I have not been upgraded even though there are two vacant Business seats. Now the...

I need to change a November booking to fly earlier in the day. I rang Qantas twice on Friday, once yesterday and once today. Each time I got a recorded message to ring back later as they are very busy, unless I need assistance with a flight today. When is a good time to ring?

My SO and I will be in Melbourne for four nights in late January and I have narrowed down the accommodation options to two. 1) Pan Pacific for $1165 for a Deluxe room including breakfast and free wi-fi. I like the room size. 2) Doubletree for $966 for a Queen Guest room (HH Gold...

I am planning on staying in a few Hiltons next month for a total of 19 nights, so I thought that I'd try for Gold for either 4 stays or 10 nights. My questions are: Can I use 5 nights from Easter so I will only need 5 more nights or 3 more stays? Or can I alternate bookings at the first hotel...

I am unable to fly at night, so to get from Perth to Europe has a few challenges. Last time I went QF from Perth to Singapore and return and then EK from Singapore to Dubai and Rome and home from Heathrow, Dubai and Singapore. We stopped overnight for at least one night in each place and it...

I am planning to fly QF from PER -> SIN -> KUL. Then, just over 36 hours later, on EK, from KUL -> DXB -> LHR. Can I book my check-in luggage all the way from PER to LHR? Or am I dreamin'?

In a parallel universe, if it were possible to trade Velocity and QFF points, what would be a fair exchange rate between the two?
