I have two printed etickets with status ‘confirmed’ for the full itinerary, seats selected for both...

    Do transfers from Bank rewards to Velocity keep points alive?

    Are transfers from ANZ rewards to Velocity considered ‘earning points’ for the purpose of keeping points in the account from expiring? I can’t find any info that Velocity extended points expiration due to COVID, only status extensions.

    QFF hotel award bookings refund

    Due to the latest COVID restrictions in NSW, a friend has had to cancel accommodation made using (133k) QFF points.

    Score 2 for the Airline Consumer Advocate

    Bravo to the ACA - great result - total cash refund of $500 plus $800 worth of travel vouchers. Disappointed that I had to pursue this with the ACA despite contacting Jetstar directly, sometimes persistence pays off. I just wish business would learn to do the right thing as the time and energy...

    Our 13th October JQ flight OOL NRT was cancelled with 3 hours notice due to Typhoon Vong Fong. We had flown from SYD the day prior to join the flight - we actually live in the Southern Highlands of NSW. My experience with the offshore JQ call centre to reorganise flights was chaotic - they...

    Abu Dhabi - where to stay?

    We have a 2 night stopover in Abu Dhabi in Jan. Would appreciate some advice as to what part of Abu Dhabi we should stay in - Corniche/CBD etc? We will be out and about each day so don't need a resort and, from what I've researched, we will be taxi-ing anywhere we want to go. Any suggestions?
