    QF Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    QF11 SYD - LAX platinum status. Unsuccessful Y to J, but successful upgrade to premium economy backup option as had checked the box. Notified successful to PE at -20h. I watched on expertflyer as J9 went down to J1 at -24h, and a dozen seats open up on the seat map in PE at the same time…...

    QF Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    Would a SG in W outrank a P in Y? On prob ~3 flights in the last 6 months there has been 9+ in J, 72 hours out, which is apparently when P can receive upgrades... however, when I've been unsuccessful for J and only received the W upgrade, the upgrade has come through ~20 hours out... which to...

    QF Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    The last few times I've flown SYD-LAX/LAX-SYD, I have only been successful with Y > PE, even though J has been showing 9+ 24 hours out. I'm wondering if all PE > J upgrades get processed first, regardless of status. Had quite liked my chances 48 hours out as a WP in Y with 9+ in J showing on...

    AA award connecting to QF award... but on a separate ticket

    Thanks for the advice! I have family traveling on the next AA flight from JFK to LAX, departing an hour later, and connecting to the same QF flight (all on the same ticket). So I guess another alternative is to wear the additional checked bag fee on their booking (I think $100 USD per bag) and...

    Qantas extends status extensions until end June 2023 (previously December 2022)

    @banana0692 did you ever get an answer to this question, or was it resolved? I'm in (or will be in) a similar boat - I was Gold when this was announced, only obtaining Platinum two months ago. Membership year ending 30 April. Trying to figure out if 500 SCs will rollover, or if it will be the...

    Qantas Delays/Cancellations

    I jumped on to the website as soon as i got the message and was luckily able to change to ADL-SYD-DFW-EWR from my original ADL-MEL-LAX-JFK. Expertflyer was showing availability for SYD-DFW as Y3 when i booked, was at zero in all classes a few minutes later. Wasn't going to chance it waiting...

    Predictions of when international flights may resume/bans lifted

    That's assuming you continue to test positive for the full 14 days, right? If you test positive, and then 10 days after you return a negative test, could you theoretically fly out straight after? I know I could still catch covid, even with double jab + will have booster before i leave, but am...

    Flight Availability/Loadings & Upgrade Probability Help Desk

    Thanks! I assume Y is showing as 0 due to decreasing the loads as a result of not flying over Iran, not because economy is "full". Not sure if that will make a difference to my upgrade chances, though.

    Flight Availability/Loadings & Upgrade Probability Help Desk

    Thanks! When looking at the Economy seat map in expert flyer it shows 20 odd seats blocked, and another 30 odd free/available. Are these likely then just pax who haven't selected a seat yet? (thanks in advance - new to this)
