    Claiming a refund of 20,000 points from JetStar: A BATTLE!

    Though admittedly I have never flown JQ domestically, I’ve undertaken a few 3K flights between HKG and SIN, and SIN and SGN, which were satisfactory. I’ve currently got a *class booking with JQ and another Y booking with BL. I’ve never been a Jet* basher. My recent experience in dealing with...

    Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport: Rail link and left luggage?

    Hello all, If you have been in Bangkok lately, did you take the express train to the city? Your thoughts? The last time I was in Bangkok, the line was still under construction. Also, have you ever used the left luggage service at the airport? Some sites mention 100THB per 24 hours. I am just...

    Will you get your travel to Japan approved?

    With the current situation in Japan and the recent DFAT upgrade on travel to Tokyo, one might re-assess their travel plans. My recent travel application has not been approved by the boss as it involved a week in Japan (albeit southern Japan). In your own case, will you still consider going...

    *Security breach* at CBR airport

    Just seen someone off @ CBR airport.... Obviously there had been a security breach of sort. Everyone were asked to get back out for re-screening. Two very very long (but not much anxiety) queues and wait before security was 'open' again. I wasn't so impressed with the DJ chick walking up and...

    Involuntary cancelled JASA segment: What would you do?

    I've got a JASA booking ~ TSV-BNE-SYD-AKL. Qantas has sent an email advising the cancellation of the SYD-AKL flight and I was put on a direct flight BNE-AKL. Which means I am going to lose 40 SCs for the BNE-SYD flight. The very helpful platinum agent tried some rebookings but those didn't...

    How are stand-by seats allocated?

    SYD-CBR, the third time I’ve been on standby this year (previous experiences with AA). And I did get on the flight (on an E fare). Anyhow, I wonder if anyone might have some insights on how a SB seat is allocated. This is because I was only issued the BP when almost everyone else had boarded...

    New CBR terminal from Sunday morning

    I've just checked in at CBR for my flight to SYD. The J/Q club check-in line was occupied by so many non-status flyers. :?: The terminal is a bit of a mess with a lot of removalists moving around. The QF check-in agent told me that from tomorrow (Sunday) morning, the new terminal will start...

    Yet another credit voucher: expensive rebooking...woahhh...

    So I've got a small credit voucher of $142 (due to a cancellation of a SYD-ADL flight using Any Seat Award). I then tried to use the voucher for a CBR-SYD return. Got to the page where I entered the CC number. QF site had 'difficulty with CC information' (tried 3 different CCs). Got on the...

    Recent good experience with AA

    I have recently had some good experiences with AA (not that I had any problems with them before). The weather was so bad that a lot of planes couldn’t land in ORD (my flight was re-directed to STL for 1.5 hour, sitting on the tarmac) until 11pm. As a result, I missed the connecting flight from...

    Your experience of aircraft change? Plus some rambling

    I took a LAN flight SCL-EZE yesterday, having pre-allocated seat 21A on a 767. But ended up on an A320 without any warning. At SCL airport, first incident of the day. Check-in agent was careless enough to state that I had no right to be at the J/Priority check-in room (at the far left end of...

    Obtaining GDS reference for AA booking

    Dear all, I've seen this question asked before, but the tip of calling Qantas didn't work (tried 3 times with 3 different people). I've done a booking on AA and of course the reference number is something like ABCDEF, and I thought Qantas would be able to give me the GDS reference. But all 3...
