    QFF Business Class reward flights SYD/CHC/SYD flying on EK

    You can use both the QF international business and EK lounges in SYD. Try them both and see which you prefer. In this case using rewards doesn't matter, you still get into either or both...

    Gifts for cabin crew

    That's a shame although not entirely shocking. Would your friend say the best thing is nothing, apart from just being a good, pleasant, polite passenger (who takes their headphones off when FAs come around)?

    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic Reward seats?

    Guess you'll have to settle for first then.

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    Have escorts been a thing for non-QF metal flights? I’ve only ever been offered an escort twice (both QF metal). Not sure partner airlines can see or really would care if you’re P1 for the most part, with some failed attempts like the above BA first dining experience. I should add, QF doesn’t...

    Do you travel with young kids in Business Class?

    If you pick one I'd always choose the overnight leg for some chance at rest.

    AMEX rejection

    In a forum much about 'working the system' @Dr Ralph I think you play this churning game the hardest and while I've never churned, I admire you going right up to find the very limits - do keep reporting back :) Others may strongly disagree but I don't think it's necessary to get mean about...

    Emirates Wolgan Valley to reopen as a Ritz-Carlton Lodge

    Wonder why Emirates wanted Ritz-Carlton's involvement? I still remember a former poster's trip report of the resort, it sounds wonderful but I don't think it'll ever be in my budget.

    That’s probably also why the Wellbeing app is stuck atm too

    Big Devaluation for Qantas Rewards on Emirates First Class from February 18.

    Are they also going to reduce fees/charges to “more closely match partners”? I hate it when companies “change” (increase) prices to “bring it into line with the market.”

    When will Australia get modern entry procedures?

    I'm not holding my breath but I also can't wait to see fewer, preferably no, steps in both arriving (sometimes departing too) declarations and arrivals. I know countries have their visa procedures and some are more rigorous than others, but some systems look like they haven't been touched or...

    The Qantas Newbie Questions Thread

    A newbie-esque query about understanding the likelihood of seat releases. I'm aiming to snag a couple in business on DFW-MEL and the loads are J9 C9 D9 I9 U0. Before I ring QF, is I9 a good sign or is it worth trying to see if some in U are released?

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    That’s a real shame, my SQ J (and Y) experiences have been excellent and if someone asked me to tell them what airline to book where they’ll be looked after I’d have immediately named them. I can’t quite say I want to hear others’ negative stories too but I’m interested in what’s going on...
