I'm experiencing some weird (and frustrating) behaviour when trying to select a seat for an AA flight (MIA-DFW in November) booked under a QF codeshare on a QF ticket. As a OW Sapphire, I understand that I should be able to select an MCE seat on AA flights. However, I don't see any MCE seats...

Looking for a hotel on the Qantas website this morning, this caught my eye: What a bargain (not)!

A quick question for the wise heads out there. What is the current situation regarding making and paying for bookings using the AA USA Website? Will that website readily accept an Australian credit card? On a dummy booking, I see that "Australia' appears in the drop down menu under "Billing...

Hi All, I have a booking on QF12 in November that has just been restored to an A380 after having been earlier changed from an A380 to a B747. Looking at the seat map this morning, I found it quite curious. There seems to be no seats 50C/51H/52D/52G/81D/81G in Y. Has anybody seen a seat map...

Does anybody know exactly how the transition from the old to the new loyalty bonus will operate and how progress towards the old loyalty bonus will be recognised on 30 November (or 1 December)? For example, on 30 November I will be 20 Status Credits short of the 'old' loyalty bonus and will...
