Maybe this kills it: "We will not be able to refund you if you’ve made changes to your sector." Seems like they get to keep the money for not providing a service. https://www.emirates.com/au/english/book/about-booking-online/emirates-seat-selection/

That's my reading of that clause too. I'll see if I can convince them to call again, and hopefully get a more polite and helpful agent. They are a bit shaken after the treatment they were given this morning. The agent yesterday was very good (they were visiting us yesterday and mum put me on to...

My parents (in late 70s) are travelling to the UK soon from CBR, and they chose to pay for seat selection on the international legs. The trip is in economy, and they have no flyer status with Emirates or Qantas. Last week Emirates advised a change to the booking, as the Qantas flight on the...

Thanks - have just sent an email too (for a year or so worth of refund from a 2 year payment made in about 2013).

Yeah I think I'm rememberingg the BA tie-up pre One World. OW lounge access was definitely a thing though. Will dig out my 1996 membership pack tonight to see.

I went to the lounge in Hong Kong when I flew there in economy on Cathy in 2000.

I'm now WP and LTG, but I started as a self funded QP memebr in 1996. Back then QP had a similar level of benefit to gold status now, including access to One World lounges when flying on those partner airlines. It would be good to see some of the various enhancements wound back.

I've still got my QP welcome pack from 1996 or so (will dig it out tonight). I joined QFF in 1995 so have a membership number <900,000. Oh and I still have my carry-on bag from being Silver. It was great as a laptop bag when they were a lot less portable than they are now! Someone said above...

It is best to turn the a/c on full flow - How to Fly Safely: Dr. Sanjay Gupta's coronavirus podcast for May 28 "Another tip when you're on the plane. You know that little nozzle above your seat that regulates air? Turn that on. That's going to cause some turbulent airflow in front of you and...

I've hosted and attended meetings in the rooms in BNE, SYD and MEL. I'm CBR based and the meetings were with people from everywhere. I thought they were pretty good.

ABC News story today on Qantas finding a 9 minute reel of film of their Empire flying boats from 1930s Never-before-released 1930s footage reveals iconic Qantas aircraft

my frst B747 flight was SYD - CNS on VH-OEB in 1998, just after the aircraft came to Qantas from Asiana Airlines. I used a Qantas Club Silver upgrade bonus (remember getting those?) to bump myself up to Business Class. My boarding pass was for seat 3K - in the first class section of the nose...

He did a couple of videos with cartoon animation. First solo in RAAF PC-9: And a grain of truth warie: The ANZAC Day one is worth watching too - he flew a C-130 into Dili on Day 1 with INTERFET

It was him :-)

This video is by a QF B737 Captain and is about him preparing to regain flight currency in the simulator after being on furlough for a couple of months.

There's no luggage drop-off at LST or ther smaller airports. Still have to queue for the check-in counter.

This travel was for work but I wonder if they'd want to see photo ID for kids or teens flying? We don't take our daughter's passport domestically. I've not been asked for photo ID domestically for 20 years. That includes at regional airports including Armidale, Roma, Launceston (multiple times)...

Am now in the regional lounge at LST and just had to provide photo ID to check-in for the flights to MEL and then CBR. I handed over my QF WP card and was asked for my license. I asked if it was a new thing and was told "it is policy, it has always been". It wasn't a requirement on Monday in...

Had my first flight today since the boarding process changed. Premium boarding was lovely for CBR - MEL. I thanked the CSM for how pleasant it was. Didn’t notice anyone trying to sneak on early.
