    Pathetic [Where are the advertised extra award seats? ]

    QF are also quiet on their facebook page, and have not yet answered my question about details of our "extra" premium seats and when they are available.

    Day One of the new QF FF program and where are the seats?

    Hi All, Today is the first day of the newly revamped and enhanced QF FF program. We were promised 5 million new seats of which 30% were supposed to be premium cabin, but when is QF going to add them to the booking site? I just checked for business class for PER-LHR and there are no extras that...

    Citilink to fly PER-DPS

    GA now fly a 737-800 in place of the a330. That came as a nasty shock to the system, especially as air fares seem to have also dropped from what we booked a few months ago. This is probably as a result of Citilink coming

    QF Preliminary Results FY17/18

    Perhaps put a few more FF call centre staff on. Last week I waited 70mins and got through to cancel a booking and book a new one, only to be told I had to ring Indonesia. Rang them and got through in 2 minutes. Told, "sorry" I had to do a change of award booking through the Australian call...

    My QF flying days are numbered - due to poor QF CS

    Re: My QF flying days are numbered - poor QF CS The Lemon Meringue pie was against corporate bullying, nothing more and nothing less. I am sorry if you saw it differently. I will not speak more on this as it strays from the message we are trying to give to QF.

    My QF flying days are numbered - due to poor QF CS

    Re: My QF flying days are numbered - poor QF CS Ooh, harsh. Humor, is always in the eye of the beholder. I am sorry that you did not find it even slightly amusing. However, that one lemon meringue pie, and the negative publicity it brought to AJ, seems to have had some effect. As to helping...

    What are your most liked/indispensable travel apps?

    I have most of the usual suspects mentioned here but I also use Rail Planner for UK and Europe based timetable planning. Also have a Roman Numeral to Numbers app, when visiting Cathedrals and cemetery's to see how old the dearly departed are.

    What is the best annual travel insurance AFTER you have had a medical emergency?

    Hi All, I have a TID annual travel insurance policy and recently had to make a claim because I was hospitalized overseas for a couple of weeks with a spontaneous Lung collapse. They handled the claim very professionally, but as part of the process I read the PDS again to see what I was...

    Planning a RTW via Qantas One World

    Maybe I am missing something here, but when I looked at the OW Explorer and priced a PER-TXL-LHR-YYZ-LAX-PER the prices for economy come to about $6000 each. You can book 3 itineraries, a return PER-TXL but back via LHR, a one way TXL-LHR, and a return LHR-YYZ for half that price. Am I missing...

    a380 and 773 vast difference in J standards?

    Hi All, We recently experienced some vast differences in Emirates J standards between a short haul a380 (5 hours) and a longer haul (9 hours) 773 and wonder if this is normal. On the a380 it was a 9pm flight. Mattress's were offered even though sleep would have been somewhat limited due to the...

    So is QFF points chasing worthwhile?

    Being in Perth, premium international redemptions are in some ways a lot harder, particularly to Europe. If you do manage one on EK the fees the partnership charges is ridiculous. However, if you start from another location, like Singapore or Hong Kong, then availability is usually better, and...

    Woolworths reviewing partnership with Qantas Frequent Flyer.

    At the end of the day Woolies must have thought the cost of the QFF points was greater than the loyalty and income that it brought in. Whilst we probably only made a few thousand points a year, it is important to note that our loyalty was given to Woolies, in our pursuit for more and more...

    Qatar Airways set to fly DOH-SYD from 01 March 2016

    A previous post asked about award availability. In J you have no chance (if you take PER departures as a guide - no, in fact all departures except DOH-DXB) as they are never listed. Maybe you have to ring QF just like if you want MH flights. Having said that there are plenty of Y seats, and the...

    Should QF9 be re-routed

    Does not leave us with much does it. We cannot just pop over the Melbourne, so it looks like it is SIA for now.

    Should QF9 be re-routed

    With the announcement today that PER-SIN is to be dropped in early 2015, it seems to spell the end to any thoughts of using SIN as a minor hub.
