Currently waiting for my 100 status credits rollover to post (points club plus perk) but given I apparently keep all of the perks for my new Qantas year, is it worth getting the points needed to renew either club or plus? Do...

    Travel Bank credit expiring (not flight credits)

    I have some pre covid, pre bankruptcy travel bank credits that are about to expire. Over $2000 worth. I am confused as to where I now stand with these. It would appear that the special conditional credits are extended to 2021, but what about Travel Bank. Some of my credits will expire in the...

    Delta booking class on a virgin australia booking ?

    I'm looking at BNE LAX MCO (Orlando), in Y+ (Premium Economy), with the first flight on Virgin. This, unfortunately, downgrades us to Y (Economy) for the LAX MCO flight on Delta.

    Experience wirh space available upgrades given in compensation for inconvenience

    Hi All, Well I was given one of these, and its starting to look to me like they are not worth as much as Qantas would claim when they give them to you. It looks like they are in effect a gate upgrade, much like an op up. With all other upgrades now clearing days before, is Qantas pulling one...

    Qf108 JFK SYD (via lax)

    Hi people, I believe this now includes a plane type change, while remaining on the same flight number (an odd concept for me). Will upgrades work on this one do we think?, and will they cover the whole trip. How on earth does seating work. & I believe its a 744RR from LAX to SYD but what...

    QF94 LAX MEL had to stop in SYD for refuel - seems to be down to very bad planning

    The captain made it quite clear that with a full load of passengers 447 out of a possible 450, and a lot of freight we were only ever going to make it 'with luck' and 'luck' was no on our side. As he explained with so much pax and freight we could only load so much fuel. Surely in such a...
