    Jetstar credit delays

    I flew Jetstar (valuair) in August, after waiting 2 months with no credit I sent an email (as valuair is not in the dropdown list via the online form), had no reply to that email for a month so sent a follow up email, and then points were credit about a week after that. so nearly a 4 month...

    ACCC Approves QF/JQ tie up

    Lets hope that it means (pro) better QFF benefits, like recognising status, maybe even real code-share flights and not (con) less Qantas metal flights to Asia without code-share

    Time to issue e-Ticket - Customer Care Voucher

    When are they just going to make these certificates eletronic? I have one to use, but man what a hassle plus surely its costing QF a bomb to issue, take phone call, wait for certificate, process booking. I love how they have done the "Fly Free Voucher" electronic, they should do the same with...

    A380 to Hong Kong [from Jan 15th, QF127/QF128]

    Starts from Sunday 15th Jan, 4 x weekly , I have been waiting for this, yipeee! Although an overnight option would be better than the day flight. Annoyed about the LHR option dropping from HKG but this certainly makes up a little for that. P.s. looks like mainly Sunday, Thursday, Friday...

    Building a stronger Qantas

    I'm happy about the HKG First lounge, but not happy about the BA codeshare onto LHR from HKG, I have used this route a few times in the last 8 months, I stopover in HKG, +1 joins me, then we go onto LHR, we buy PE fares then upgrade using points, this will no longer be an option :-( there is no...

    How to upgrade to Business on Qantas SING-BRIS flight

    Thanks markis10, I guess have only tried to do this once the booking was made and was told can't be done by Q, they also told me they only sell mixed class in Economy and Premium Economy from Australia, and only over the phone, maybe they were leading me astray on the business fare options...

    How to upgrade to Business on Qantas SING-BRIS flight

    Hi suchidog Welcome to AFF! A tricky one, but you can't actual pay to upgrade to business from economy without cancelling your economy booking an making a new booking, QF doesn't allow mixed class bookings in Business (J) and Economy (whY), you would need to buy two separate one-way tickets...

    Surprise Upgrades?

    I noticed this section from a AUSBT article about SMS alerts on upgrade requests: Do you think they are referring to OP-Ups? or is there another surprise upgrade program we don't know about? Link to article...

    I made gold yay~

    Because you reached gold well before your end date you basically get more than a year at gold, you get like 8 extra months

    Your Membership year doesn't change when you reach the next level it stays the same. Only time it changes is if you receive PG and they align your dates to the WPs year.

    What routes should QF fly?

    What about JFK - LHR and complete the RTW route! NZ has this, I wonder if its profitable to have a complete RTW option? Or at least maybe a codeshare?

    Malaysia Airlines to join Oneworld alliance

    Do you think this will see the end to the sometimes crazy low MH fares from Australia? Including the cheap J offering to LHR? and SE Asia? How would you rate MH against QF for service/product say to LHR? are the even? I know that MH has come up a few times in my flight options but have...

    Nice restaurant in HK?

    I can definitely recommend Amber at The Landmark Mandarin Oriental. it has some great degustation menus, be sure to ask the waiter as they have some variants not on the printed menu. Last time i was there we couldn't even finish all the course (mainly due to the large amounts of champers)...

    Best seat in Y for A330-300?

    I'm the kinda flyer who likes a window, I take my seat and may not get up the whole flight, I have flown in the window bulkhead seats to HKG many times (23A/K), I'm 183cm and each time I swear that I won't choose the window seat again, you can't stretch your legs, and my knees begin to...

    Avoid QF3/QF4 To/From Honolulu

    I have been to HNL a few times, I have not had the pleasure (*cough*) of trying out the 763 but it has been a pretty colorful fleet for this route for a while, I have had the pleasure of trying these: QF - 747-SP (complete with spiral staircase and was seated in Y upstairs :o) QF - 747-200...
