I've been flying twice a month now for last 4-5 months Perth - Brisbane route and Qantas hasn't updated their dozen or so IPAD movies and TV shows for what feels like forever. Any idea how often they change them? Twice a year? Have to use my tablet this flight as I've seen everything on the...

mmmm 38 years I've been alive times 52 weeks = 1976 weeks divide by 1103 hours in the air = roughly half an hour a week since 1974. Year Distance Hours Flights 2013 68.757 km 94:25 h 36 2012 123.375 km 153:37 h 33 2011 91.889 km 115:44 h 26 2010 66.042 km 83:51 h 21...

Best - Quillabamba, Peru. Locals are mad crazy and love to party. Worst - Nogliki, Sakhalin Oblast, Russia. Strange scary place.

I did a Nazca lines tour flight couple years ago - lasted about 20 minutes. Probably didn't fly more than 10km from the airport and back. Does that count?

Gotta love AFF. Such an awesome info source.

I couldn't find anywhere on the Qantas website that indicates that your paid membership goes on hold when you get gold (nice rhyme) and resumes when you lose it. Will take your word for it Mwenenzi thanks. Now I have to check which of the airports have qantas club facilities...

Thanks bud.

Ok so my Qantas Club membership expired and I have Silver status. I should get Gold in the next couple months as have a lot of international flights coming up but obviously I can't use QC facilities for these flights unless I renew my membership. Is there any short term QC membership eg pay...

Thanks Shane just booked it - didnt think of New York dammit. Perth - Mel - Syd - Dallas - Bos then Bos - LA - Syd - Bris. Then I have another Bris - Per flight later in the month so should make it. Cheers

Not sure just going qantas fare sale only brings up going East from Perth to get to Boston. Yeah looking forward to it - tickets to the Red Sox and Yankees game with a pass to go onto the ground pre-game - insane. LAst game I went to was ten years ago Oakland v Seattle nowhere near as exciting.

Hi forumites and AFF specialists, Well I have just "won" a trip to Boston from Perth to see a Major League Baseball Game. The prize lets me organise my own flights from Perth to Boston then to Brisbane as long as its with Qantas and cheapest fare price (meaning discount economy). I need 200SC...

Tomorrow is D Day! Should be ok though fingers crossed. Otherwise this thread might continue a few more pages.

lol Jillybean at the end of message I should have said "Just taking the piss". Just wishing that someone would make my day - 203 times and still waiting. I usually fly solo, wear respectable clothing and should come across as upgrade material but alas no - the few times I have asked about...

So next time I fly I will ditch the thongs and singlet and goto check-in dressed as a priest - can only boost my free upgrade chances :) But seriously how do you know if the person has "never experienced it before" - does it say on the system that Joe Bloggs has never had a free upgrade...

Damn I've been on 203 flights - most of them international in my time and still waiting for that first upgrade. So sad now.

Yeah I am still worried that they won't come through or the "beatch" that stuffed me over does something but she hasn't called us so hopefully all good. They aren't wealthy but they aren't poor so I would assume they will take it up with their 41 year old daughter and give her a smack or too.

Sorry everyone. Thanks for all the posts. I read these forums a lot as I am a frequent flyer but now just getting used to posting and didn't have a chance over the weekend. Good and bad news. Bad news is Qantas told me that I cannot get a credit or a name change due to it being a non-refundable...

Yeah I will call Qantas tomorrow and find out. hopefully all good.

I booked it online with my credit card. I thought that cancelling it would still give her the credit voucher as the flight is in her name. I will call Qantas tomorrow and find out

Yeah i have her reference number so I can log in and cancel it that way but doesnt she still get the credit voucher?
