Going to test memories here- but this is bugging me!! About two years ago, there was a marketing company allowing passengers to demo high end headsets in the BA first lounge at T5. I absolutely loved them- and would equally love to know what they were and look out for a pair if I can ever...

Ahh, I see what you are looking at. I was looking at this - it says first checked back complementary. I'm wondering if where it says total of 3 bag on American beside extra bag allowance means you can take 3 extra bags, but they are not complementary. Thanks for sharing that though - I might...

Thanks Opus! Just to confirm, are you sure that 3 bags isn't just on international flights? My reading was only one on internal flights? Three would be awesome!! I'm about to book some more internal flights, so would stick to AA that being the case.

Hey all - I'm flying Honolulu to mainland US next year with wife and kids. I have platinum with Qantas - is my reading correct in that I'll be allowed one checked bag up to 23kgs free, but for any others we'll need to pay US$30? Thanks all!!

Hey all! I'm thinking about Christmas holidays and where to go. Does anyone know if JQ has any domestic flights leaving from Melbourne or Sydney international terminals around that time of year? It would be nice to start our trip with a first lounge visit - I'm not travelling much at the moment...

Hi all - I've got a window of opportunity to go literally anywhere from Stansted on Sunday 28 April in the evening. Is there any way I can get a timetable to see what flights are going out on that evening, rather than going through each airline and then each destination to check times? Thanks!!

Hi AIRwin - has the JQ option disappeared early? I see it's going tomorrow, but can't see it any other week :-( Was good while it lasted!

Me too actually at this stage- have been doing it so regularly the lounge staff are becoming friends!

Thanks Airwin - I’m all over that one :) Little lonely up front today though... Looks like my pic isn’t working, but imagine a very empty JQ Dreamliner cabin!

Sitting in the QF 1st lounge at Melb, I noticed a 747 flying QF430 today. Would that be a one off (i.e. how can I book onto it next time!)?! I was here this time last week too and noticed an empty 747 flying up to Sydney at about the same time - so wondering if they need one ferried up on a...

Hehe- he even made me get my wallet down from the overhead locker. It’s the little things...!

So I had my last work flight of the year on Friday (one more holiday flight to go!), which happened to be my 150th QF flight for the year. I flew Syd - Mel at the back of the bus- my fare to sit in seat 27B was a very reasonable $949 one way! Anyway- I thought I’d mark it with a glass of red...

Hi all! I’ve noticed that, when I fly JQ on a max fare, the FF points and SCs never automatically hit my account, so I need to do a missing flight request each time. You might remember my last post about how I just missed out on platinum because I was waiting on lots of flights to credit...

I could have done with that the other week :rolleyes:

Thank you all for your replies - did make me feel a bit better (even the fake news comment!)! I was still Gold when I landed in Singapore, which is probably not a bad thing. Arguably, would have been worse if my status had ticked over during the flight. The Canberra - Sydney flight was credited...

Maybe posting here will make me feel a little better about my failing! I dropped from plat to gold late last year. Have been flying lots domestically since March, so started to push back up towards the required 1,400. My big problem - using the odd JQ flight as Avalon was a bit easier for me...

Thanks again all - yes, it is strange. I did this at the end of April and got 40 SCs (from MEL to SYD), but just can't seem to find it any more. Ahhhh well - I'll keep an eye out each time I am travelling between the two and have some flexibility and see if it comes back.

Thanks all - oh well, there goes that plan to boost my QF credits!!

Hi folks - I tried to book 'business' class on the Dreamliner flight on Thursday, but it says sold out. A quick look at other Thursday's and they all say sold out. Reckon this is correct or do they just not sell these seats? Cheers :-)

I prefer black too - but defeats the purpose of quickly buying a pair so the wife doesn't noticed I lost my silver ones after my little party on QF business class!!
