You are probably not far off. Seems to be a common occurrence atm. I've done a few flights up and down eastern states recently for business, mainly with Qantas and had my case delayed when flying QF from SYD-BNE a couple of weeks ago and then last Monday flying SYD-MEL. Both occasions Qantas...

After chasing, they said yes, they should have been awarded. They should get posted in the next 5-7 working days so will have to check the next statement when it arrives early next month. If they were not showing on your statement then best to follow up as I'm sure they will not do the right thing.

I received my WW Money card statement today which shows ATO transaction on 10th May yet no points were earned. My understanding is that there would be no points earned from 11th May as per the email received in April: We are making some changes to types of transactions that earn points under...

A few years ago now, but Rod Stewart and Rachel Hunter at Miami flying to LHR and a van full of Louis Vuitton luggage

On a similar topic - whenever I (was bronze) book a flight with my wife (Silver QP) via her FF login, it always seems that I am the primary flyer - does anyone have thoughts on that

Slightly off topic - but I recently requested to change my billing date on my statement so that I wasn't paying all my card balances at the same time each month. I was happy to have one month which was a "short month" in order to adjust the billing date. Apparently HSBC won't allow that and...

Very interesting seeing this thread. I have a set of Sony NC headphones and have never had any issue with using them on flights, Qantas or otherwise. Am often asked to remove them for take off and landing - but that is pretty much standard practice with all headphones - noice cancelling or other

Anyone have any thoughts as to whether Virgin will be running another status match promo any time soon. I jumped a level with QFF a month or so after the last cut off and am keen to progress with Velocity

Often, when my wife and I are at check in - she will do all the talking if the assistant is a younger female member but then apparently I can charm the older women and indeed the men! It may be worth choosing your plan of attack depending on who serves you at check in. We have often been marked...

Thanks again - all I am after is to be able to enter the lounge at the same time as my wife on 1st Jan when we fly to LAX. Not fussed about the other freebies. I notice Red Roo is on this thread ATM - any thoughts or help would be fantastic

Cheers - although there was no indicaton in the email or letter I got from Qantas indicating any of the above. Do you think this is worth (another) call to QFF ? Now that I have qualified for Silver I believe I will get a Q tag anyway. Interesting that my wife who was, and is QP Silver got an...

Yes - we were both travelling together on the same booking on the grounding day. Got a refund for our flights and travelled Virgin the following day. We finally got our additional costs refunded by Qantas and the 25% bonus points for subsequent flights have been appearing for both of us. My...

I always have "fun" at the checkout when they ask for my EDR card. The bar code is printed on the back of my Woolies Qantas Mastercard and they presume that I am paying with that - I have to prevent them from swiping the card and then hand over my AMEX. When I explain - I still get the comment...

I have spoken to QFF on several occasions re the pass - my wife received one and I did not - and they say there is nothing they can do. Qantas even ousourced the delivery to a third party so if you are expecting one and it is delayed or never turns up - don't be surprised if they do no issue a...

Can anyone confirm if all passengers affected by grounding should not only get the free flight + bonus points + another freebie ? My wife (Silver Qantas Club) and I (Bronze) received emails from Qantas a few weeks ago indicating that we would both receive 25% bonus points for flights up to 23...

Not sure if you have got your costs back yet but it took a bit of agitating in order to get mine back. Had been talking to domestic sales about another matter and brought this issue up. They indicated that AMEX were being a bit fussy about credits being applied to their cards when the costs were...

Thanks NM for clarifying the pecking order. As I have booked discount economy, I now know my place.:( At this stage BA are indicating that the flight is not at all full so fingers crossed.

Just wondered if anyone had any more thoughts or updated information on this topic (which was last active a couple of years ago) Reason for asking is that I am flying to the UK to cycle the length Britain in July and want to ensure that at the very least I get at an aisle seat to stretch my...
