    Tale of 2 brekkies [or Qantas "Cafe" Breakfast Sucks!]

    Cafe Breakfast on QF82 that landed in Sydney this morning was underwhelming. Toast probably had less than 5% water content but if you left it a while, the mushy tomatoes fixed that.

    Sydney <-> Hong Kong F or J

    If you have the points, do F both ways. 25K points each way is a bargain when you take into account the cash value of such an upgrade. Hong Kong Island side versus Kowloon side depends on what you want to do. Much of a muchness although the better hotels tend to be on the island side. A good...

    Tale of 2 brekkies [or Qantas "Cafe" Breakfast Sucks!]

    Re: Qantas Cafe Breakfast Lots of complaints about Qantas. Surely if everybody complained it could make a difference. Hopefully people have formally complained because if it only goes as far as a whinge on this forum, nothing will change. Currently waiting to board QF82 - had a good filling...

    Passengers charged by weight!

    If somebody was large enough to occupy two seats, would they be given two seats with the extra weight payment. Just wondering.

    LAX Showers?

    Thank you do much for this. I never realized that there was an airside connection between T5 and T6 even though I have been in T5 a good number of times. The Delta lounge in T5 is excellent and has good showers. It will be worth the $50 to get sorted out at LAX.

    LAX Showers?

    I know that this question has been asked in the past but things do change over time and I also have a special set of circumstances. I will be flying QF to Lax in a couple of weeks. Will have 3 and a half hours before flying on to San Jose. The onward flight is a QF code share and metal is...

    Virgin FF'ers experience on Qantas

    My impression is that more often than not, there are posts with complaints regarding Qantas product, planes, service etc etc. it is very interesting hearing an impression from a DJ flyer taking a QF flight and reporting on the differences. My personal experience when the overall packages are...

    Timeline for domestic FJ SCs to make it to my QFF account?

    I was coming up marginally short of keeping WP but had forward bookings coming up within weeks of the deadline. I wrote to QF and explained my situation and they immediately renewed my WP - try emailing them in advance and you will probably find a positive response. Will save all that hassle...

    Qantas Customer Service

    Plenty of QF complaints here. I have generally been very happy with the carrier and the service IMHO has generally improved over the past few years. No airline gets things done perfectly except perhaps carriers (eg emirates) that fly to places that I do not wish to fly to. If we go back to...

    been upgraded by optiontown?

    Just checked the link posted by moa999. Seems like it is genuine.

    been upgraded by optiontown?

    Just checked out their website. How the system works is poorly explained. Most of the testimonials are from those who have flown with Malaysian or Kingfisher. Still concerned if it is all genuine. Nevertheless, an interesting concept.

    Centurion here I come.....

    Sounds to me that if you already have OWE, not much real benefit over Plat Amex. Having been a member of Amex since 1987 and with close to 8 years with a Plat charge card and spend of 90 to 100K on the card each year, am yet to ever receive an invite. Probably never will because I question the...

    Should long term Qantas Club membership be recognised?

    Wow, maybe the life membership that I bought all those years ago would suddenly have meaning if this were to ever happen. ;)

    Should long term Qantas Club membership be recognised?

    If you are QF gold, as per your profile, why on earth would you want pay for QP membership? Admittedly, I paid for lifetime QP membership but that was before I started flying as much as I do now.

    Upgrade Guide Being Sold on

    Greetings Mal I am inclined to agree with you. The seller is based in Sydney so it may or may not have an AU centric theme. If nobody has read it, I am quite happy to burn $7.80 and take one for the team and report back on how our forum stacks up. Yes, it will more than likely be a total waste...

    Upgrade Guide Being Sold on

    I am absolutely blown away that I may have caused offence with my post. I guess that this is the problem with comments in an email/post context where the tone and tenor of what is said can be missed/misinterpreted. This includes both my comment which may sound flippant and accusational to some...

    Upgrade Guide Being Sold on

    There is this ad on eBay Australia selling this guide on how to best position yourself for an upgrade when flying economy. Has anybody read this guide and can make comment as to whether the information within is nothing more than what we can get from this forum? For all we know, the author and...

    What class does LAX-IAD book into?

    Point taken. Clearly I was shafted! Sometimes we just have to learn from bitter experience. :oops:
