I've been trying to make a hotel booking through Qantas Business Rewards and I just can't seem to do it. First, I tried logging into my account using my Google Chrome browser and I couldn't even get to the login page. Next tried using Firefox - I can get to the login page but after entering my...

Has anyone used the "My Island Sleeper Row" upgrade on Fiji Airways? https://www.fijiairways.com/en-au/manage/my-island-sleeper-row/ I like the concept, but it seems this is only offered subject to availability at checkin - i.e. can't be guaranteed in advance. If it works, the additional cost...

I received this email today as a Points Club Plus member. Not sure if the offer is targeted or open to all Points Club/Points Club Plus members who register. In the past when there have been similar offers, it has been double points for Points Club members or triple for Points Club Plus...

Airlines are always looking for ways to increase ancillary revenue by selling more products or finding value-adds that they can monetise. At the risk of giving airlines good ideas, I'm interested to ask what products or services airlines are not currently offering, but that you would be willing...

This was in today's QFF Newsletter: Show your Qantas Frequent Flyer membership card at the National Gallery of Australia to get a free ticket into the Emily Kam Kngwarray art exhibition. This is the same artist who designed one of Qantas' Boeing 787-9 liveries. Tickets are normally $26 for...

Did anyone else get this Card Offer from Qantas? Seems like a good deal. On a related note, I just linked a new card and tried to view the terms & conditions that you have to agree to when linking a card. This is the T&Cs page linked - My Card Offers Enrolment I can't get the T&Cs page to...

I recently watched one of those 5-minute "destination guide" videos on a flight where they give you a few tips for your destination. I won't name the destination, but this particular video was full of phrases like "unimaginable possibilities", "has it all", "breathtaking" and said its...
