The flygirl has a birthday in August, and as she has never been to Japan, I'm trying to figure out the flights to get from ADL to KIX. The plan is to visit Osaka and Kyoto, but we need to slip down to Wakayama for 2 days (to keep the tax man happy!!!!!) I want to use QF as we have bags of points...

Maybe a dumb question, but can you carry toothpaste, in a tube, as carry on? Currently in Los Angeles, and looking at re-arranging what I carry on to the aircraft. We transit through Melbourne on the way home. Alan

We are booked on QF94 on July 22 and when I try to preselect our seats, I get the option of window or aisle. Its been like that for 2 weeks. We came over on QF93 which was a Dreamliner, and I thought we were going back on the same aircraft, but could it be that we will be on a 380 instead, and...

I've received an email from Qflyer with some good Qantas deals to the US. And, for once, the timing looks good. Am I safe using them for my bookings, as I normally do my own thing on the QF website, but I can't even get close to the deals they are offering. Their website looks great, but that...

We are booked to go to Singapore in February next year and I wanted to treat the Flygirl to a great experience. We stayed at Royal Plaza on Scotts when we came back from London last year, and my wife loved it. So this time I planned to book a club room on the top floor and surprise her! I've...

On Sunday, my wife and I flew home on QF94. We were in the upper deck economy section. There had been a group of us in the cabin who all hit it off and whilst boarding, there were many jokes and introductions. When we arrived, we all chatted and said goodbye and off we all went. During all this...

Looking at 2 weeks in Myanmar in November. Presuming we would fly into Yangoon, but are there other options? Don't want to really keep changing accommodation, so maybe after Yangoon go to ????. And if so, what is the best way to get to ???? We would be happy to do personalised tours, but really...

OK, this may be a dumb question, but here goes! Got home yesterday after a month of travel, and on the QF J legs I had bloody mary's on various occasions. The drink was mixed using a small can of savory tomato juice, rather than normal tomato juice, with extra additions. I forgot to ask the...

My wife and I recently had a great experience through T8 at JFK. She is QF Silver, and I'm Gold. We had AA tickets for economy for JFK - CDG. When we checked in at the Priority counter the lovely lady told us to go and enjoy the lounge while we waited the 90 mins for the flight to board. I was a...

I a couple of weeks, my wife and I are off on a month long trip. ADL-MEL-LAX-LAS-JFK-CDG-LHR-SIN-SYD-ADL All secors except LAS-JFK, JFK-CDG and CDG-LHR are on QF with the US leg on AA and the JFK-LHR flights on BA. I'm QF gold and wife is QF silver. We are booked in Y with J upgrades in the...

Just saw some iteresting footage on ch9 showing a passenger who missed his Jetsstar flight and then pushed through security and onto the front steps of an aircraft and tried to open the front door!

Just found this on another forum discussing the pros and cons of the Rolls Royce engines on the 787 aircraft, and wondered if it will have any effect on the long haul operations that Qantas are doing, and planning for the 787 fleet? LONDON (Reuters) - Rolls-Royce (RR.L) requires more money and...

We have just taken advantage (big time) of the double status credit deal. One of the itineraries we have booked is ADL-MEL-LAX-LAS-JFK-CDG-LHR-SIN-MEL-ADL. All the flights are upgradable economy (I love flying, but I want to spend the money on other things on this trip). My wife is Silver, and I...

My wife and I are looking at a longish trip next year from ADL-SYD-LAX-LAS-CDG-LHR-SIN-ADL. I tried using the QF Round the world planner, and it sort of worked, but it does not allow you to see what costs go with each sector as you go. I would like to use QF as much as I can, but I guess other...

Not sure if this is the right place for this, so mods please feel free to move if required. A week ago I decided to apply for a Qantas Premier Money Card, and to do it online. After all, there were so many prompts on the QFF website and facebook, it seemed a good idea. After filling in all the...

We trot off to Singapoe tomorrow on QF35 and I thought I'd pre order some duty free goodies for the people we are staying with. All went well unti this morning when I got an email "I hope you are well. I have been advised that unfortunately your pre-order will be cancelled due to domestic...

OK, odd question, but I promised my wife I would ask! When she went to Singapore last time (30+ years ago!), she needed to have local cash to pay and leave the country. We are going back on Thursday, and I am asuming, and hoping, that this no longer occurs, and we just arrive and leave as...

Looks legit. Email address almost looks legit. But asking for passwords, credit card details etc seems wrong. I'll pass on this one for my $95!!! Qantas - Member Satisfaction Survey

Flying QF1 in 3 weeks SYD - LHR. Will be taking some wine with me to give to someone, and will get in at SYD duty free. Not worried about saving money/duty free rip off etc etc. As we transit through Dubai, will I have to take the wine off the aircraft and then bring it back on? Are there any...
