I have achieved this successfully in the past with VA. My wife and I had booked flights to Perth separately from my mother in law. I got her PNR and simply rang VA and requested they link it to the PNR for my wife and I so we could be seated together. No problems at all and we all got to sit...

Be careful with the Jetstar sale fares. We booked and paid in July 2012 to go to Honolulu in January. The recently advertised sale fares were the same price as what we paid in July.

Recently flew LAX to BBN in Y+ on one of the newly configured 3 class 747's. The recline on the seat was enough to get in a decent sleeping position and actually managed to get 6 hours sleep which is the same as what I got in J on the way over. I will definitely fly Y+ again.

I recently flew LAX BBN on this configuration plane. You do not want to be in row 34 or 35 as the toilets are right in front of these seats and that is where people stand and wait. There is actaully an alley betwwen the ailes right next to row 35. Wife and I were in 37J/K but 36J/K would have...

My advice is to be flexible with the day you want to fly and access the website as much as you can. I have in the past persisted for 2 weeks of checking up to 50 times per day. I accessed the site twice in a 2 minute period and the flight appeared the 2nd time. Jumped on them straight away. You...

I can't select the same seats as they are now blocked or re-allocated. I have during the year slipped from Gold to Silver so that may be the answer. Having said that I have had the same thing happen in the past when I was Gold and travelling a lot. It would be nice if they told you what they...

I have a classic seat award booking in J for Feb 2012 for my wife and I flying BBN to LA. Straight after the booking I made the seat selections, making sure we were on the upper deck. Last week I checked the booking again only to notice that we no longer had any allocated seats. This has...

Check out the article on ausbt.com.au from a week ago that outlined the best business class seats.

Just trying to reopen this topic as the first post was to early. Now that the plane has been flying for a few weeks has anybody flown on it? What are your thoughts on the upgrade? Have you got any photos you can share? I am most interested in finding out the best PE seats as I will be flying on...

A few years ago I was the only PAX on a Newcastle to Brisbane flight on a 30 seater. All was going well until I made reference to "Hosties". I was very quickly reminded the correct term is "flight attendant" and never sore her again as she then went and spent the next hour talking to the pilots...

Thanks for clearing up this issue. My previous employer purchased QP for me 8 years ago and within 2 months I had reached SG and therefore got automatic access to QP. I have recently gone down to PS and the remainder of my QP kicked in. I forgot about now having 2 cards and didn't realise the 2...

Sorry for asking a dumb question but I am new to this site and am still coming to grips with some of the acronyms used. Can someone please explain what the acronyms PS and QP mean?

Sorry about that. I saw on Qantas Source about the 3 Class 747 swap on 18 September and assumed it was one with the new fitout.

We stayed at the Milford Plaza 3 years ago & would never go back. Had paid for a week & only stayed for 1 night. Did our money cold. The room was so small you could wheel your bag around the bed, tiles missing in the bathroom, window would not close & much more. It was either find a new hotel or...

I understand the new Qantas 747-400 3 Class fitout is now in operation. Assuming Qantas do not change planes on me I will be flying on it in both J & PE early next year. I am looking for pictures & opinions as to what it is like?

Serfty, my travel insurance provider is Southern Cross Travel Insurance. I can't post the link but it is very obvious if you go to their Australian website.

Serfty, thanks very much for your reply. Based on your advice I checked my travel insurance policy closely and then emailed them to get confirmation that I will be covered if we miss our connection in LA. I now have it in writing, so can rest a bit easier.

I have a similar situation which is very frustrating. I have made an award flight booking on Qantas to the US landing in LA. The flight from LA to Aspen return was booked by a travel agent. The travel agent has maintained that the two flights cannot be linked. I am a bit concerned as there is...
