    Jetstar to boost international flying with new Brisbane Airport partnership

    Nah, no lounge. My flight left from gate 107, on the concourse - (you need to take a quick train to get there after immigration/security) There is a Sky Hub Lounge out there (if you have Priority Pass), but it is quite small. When I got there, there was a small queue outside waiting to get in...

    JQ J seat availability question

    hmmm. that's a bit weird. which day is your flight? have you checked any other way to see their availability? expertflyer.com etc? did you book through Jetstar or Qantas? Have you tried to use their app to select the seat? I have found that sometimes airlines have trouble helping (even...

    Jetstar to boost international flying with new Brisbane Airport partnership

    I was wondering more about ICN... The flight is pretty new. I'm taking it next week back from Seoul. I will let you know. Same terminal as Qantas.... I was hoping JQ "business" pax might be able to use the new Oneworld lounge, but I guess that's unlikely. I'll just use one of the...

    Jetstar to boost international flying with new Brisbane Airport partnership

    Does anyone know which lounge Jetstar offers 787 "business" passengers on their flights from Seoul to Brisbane? Could it be the new OneWorld lounge?

    HSBC Star Alliance credit card in Australia

    Looks like SQ didn't read their Ts&Cs properly. Let us know if they honour the Ts&Cs please. It's kinda in black & white, hard for them to argue against.

    HSBC Star Alliance credit card in Australia

    So, to recap - got the card (eventually) in early December. Crossed the $4000 threshold in late Dec. I think the email was Dec 30th..😭 asking me to choose my status arline by Jan 15th. I went with Air Canada for the reasons above. On that day (Nth American time) I got the email from Star...

    HSBC Star Alliance credit card in Australia

    I too got the card last month. I'm a sole trader with a good income. I almost didn't go through with the application process. they were so fussy. A year of bank statements with regular incoming income was not enough. (I haven't yet done 2021-2022 Tax return). I needed a letter from my...

    Entering a QF lounge with QR WP and then changing to your QF FF #

    But is it though? Same mistake, over and over again. The only reason for this remarkable outcome is because of this website advocating on the member's behalf.

    Entering a QF lounge with QR WP and then changing to your QF FF #

    I'm getting so sick of Qantas staff not knowing their own rules. More of sick of staff members refusing to be informed of those rules by looking at their own website. I'd ask for an actual apology from the staff member involved who couldn't be convinced by Qantas' own website.

    Redeem gift voucher: prices 25% higher?

    It's hilarious how everyone wants to give them the benefit of the doubt. it's deliberate. if it is a glitch, it's deliberately not been fixed.

    Redeem gift voucher: prices 25% higher?

    GLITCH? you've gotta be joking. it's deliberate. I posted about this a couple of years ago and no-one believed me. Of course they'll "fix it" if you speak with them, but they are very happy to take the extra revenue from unsuspecting punters who don't do their research. If it were indeed a...

    For QF and VA - a LATAM solution to boarding that WORKS!!

    QF doesn't get it. The perfect example was given here some time ago by someone observing the flightee manning the EMPTY non-priorty queue, who refused to scan the BP of a priority customer (whose line was boarding) because "this is the non-priority queue".......WTF? So, yes, QF doesn't get it...

    Lounge advice for SFO

    Could you offer any guidance as to how busy that Terminal A TSA line is at 8pm? I'll be leaving on QF74 at 22:45 and was planning to go the Centurion lounge after arriving at the airport and dropping off my luggage. When you think would be reasonable and safe to leave the Amex lounge in T3...

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

    have you tried the Australian Airline Customer Advocate? Home I have had not any direct experience with them, they have been mentioned in this forum before I think. Would be curious to know what they have to say.

    Qantas Gift Vouchers Promotion 5 points per dollar December 2016

    OK RichardMEL, I'll walk it back a bit. In my experience, of more than a year ago, when doing multiple searches, multiple destinations there were many instances when I was not able to get the same flight with the voucher, for the same price. I remember this very distinctly, because based on my...

    Qantas Gift Vouchers Promotion 5 points per dollar December 2016

    This is just one of many things which Qantas does to make a bit more money. Like the mysterious charge you pay when buying a reward seat with points, but still have to pay more than just the taxes in actual money. (it's the fuel surcharge which was conveniently never removed from reward flights...
