It seems the point of this post has been missed (especially by those who attitude to pretty much everything is to HTFU). The point is that when the original seat allocation is changed an SMS can be auto-generated to the person affected. The person affected can then go on-line to see what the...

I've been very lucky in that I probably have the seat open next to me 80% of the time. But I do fly out of peak (10am Monday and 2pm Wednesday) - that seems to help.

If you put it like that I do sound a bit like a DYKWIA so I'll just crawl back into my box.

Call me and talk me through my options? As I said earlier this is not about losing the seat - it's about the actions after that...

I do understand the role that AFF plays but having tried to address this four times with the call centre I am just trying another channel. Yesterday I had a very arrogant call centre operator tell me it was all about my browser settings and when he went in as me and then saw the problem refused...

Now, not trying to sound like a DYKWIA, I fly weekly MEL-ADL and make a point of booking row 4 at -80 hours when it becomes available. At -2 hours I logged on to check all was well to discover I had been bumped to 6F. Now I am a large man so there is a big difference to me and I would have...

Attention Qantas! Please can someone look into fixing this issue. When you try and change a booking it shows N/A across the board (except for Business) but if you place a new booking you can see the availability. I have now been through the call centre four times to make changes to bookings...

Hi there I am holding a team dinner in Adelaide within the next fortnight. 43 people. I am looking for somewhere that will be fun and boisterous. Must have disabled access. Somewhere near North Terrace will be ideal. Options already considered (and rejected for various reasons) are North...

F Lounge champagne bar was serving Taittinger Blanc de Blancs and Bollinger Rose last week. Of course the Concorde Lounge may be a step up again.

It's actually all about who sits in 5F. Try that next time.

It was comfortable each way and I've never had to stand or felt overcrowded. I would definitely recommend it if going to the JHB northern suburbs or Pretoria. Security is very good.

Every year I visit our key supplier who happens to be based in Porsgrunn, Norway. No matter which way you cut it if your fly QF it takes 36 hours door to door each way. Because my mum is in Johannesburg I use one of the legs to visit her. I also had an opportunity to spend a few days in...

In truth though - what does it matter. Behaviour matters far more IMHO.

If I am going to work I dress appropriately. I am going to a restaurant or a hotel lounge I dress appropriately. If I am going to bed I dress appropriately. The fact that the F lounge is merely my hot chocolate or cognac stop before bed (on a long haul overnight) means that I dress...

I am a Platinum Elite (ex Royal Ambassador) with about 500k of points. I find the whole loyalty program incredibly poorly communicated and structured. Their website is all over the place. Thank goodness they actually know how to run hotels.

I flew Bloemfontein to Durban in a plane that did not have a toilet. This was a first for me and I had to rush from the bar to make the flight (young and foolish days). I was extremely grateful that a) I was thinner then and a lot more flexible and b) the death cigar we were flying was...

Premium desk. I had to change MEL-ADL-SYD-MEL to MEL-ADL-SYD-ADL-MEL so there was an extra flight and also a change to the last flight.

I had to add another leg to a multi-city flight - something that I could not do online. Because it was short notice I had to go business so the extra flight (SYD ADL) set me back ~$1000. QF still charged me the $40 for changing the booking. This is outrageous given that I book the other 100...

I got it staying at one primarily and one night in another (both in Australia) - so technically I should never have been awarded it in the first place? The Ts & Cs state: 10. Royal Ambassador Status: Royal Ambassador status is the highest level of status and entitles Priority Club Rewards...

Try and avoid water boarding.
