I have some upcoming flights on Lufthansa. I do have a Miles and More account, but the few Eurowings flights I took last year gave me zero status miles. This is my first trip on Lufthansa. I don't fly enough with these airlines to ever make anything useful from the points, so my question is...

I'm looking to see if I get Qatar points and miles on an Iberia ticketed flight but that is actually operated by Vueling... Theoretically I should as Iberia is Oneworld and is the issuing airliner. It has the option to input my Qatar frequent flyer details. But, Qatar's Qcalculator is of no...

Ok so this MAY have been said before, but.... Living in Canberra, and returning to overseas travel in the last couple of years.... how GOOD is it that one can now actually take an international flight from Canberra INTERNATIONAL Airport? I've flown out with Qatar four times in the last 18...

I'm trying to book a Qatar Economy ticket in their Economy Saver fare - one step above the Economy Promo. Their own status credits calculator says that Economy Saver are N, Q and S codes. Yet, when I try to book an Economy Saver fare, the booking states that it is O class, aka Promo, which...

My girlfriend and I are flying Virgin Melbourne to Hobart in a couple of days. Were each flying to Melbourne airport from a different origin, meeting there, and then taking the next flight together. Now, I have lounge access and she has zero status so will be coming in as my guest.... Thing...

I did a search and all threads on this were a bit obsolete, or closed.... SO can anyone recommend any REASONABLY priced places to stay in Auckland? :confused: I'm not a member of any clubs, so don't get the discounted rates that some of you professional travellers get. It needs to be in the...

I'm sure it's just me, but it seems a bit lame that the current QF promotion on "cheap" business class seats, ie booked into Business Saver, doesn't apply to solo travellers. Great, thanks Qantas. Glad to know that my business a solo traveller is worth nothing. :evil:

Hi has anyone had any recent experience flying LAN in J between SYD and AKL? I can't find anything recent on AFF.... How does it compare with Qantas? Also, LAN seem to use Airbus A340. How does this compare to the QF 738? Now, I won't try to compare these 2 with J in EK 380.... as that would...

After years of faithful service from my Amex Gold Business charge card, the unthinkable is happening, and from the end of September (20th or 30th, can't remember exactly which) no longer will we be able to transfer the points to QFF... I don't want another credit card as I like the no pre-set...
