    Award routing rules

    Hi, (and attn: serfty :lol:) Just wondering with regards to Classic awards, is it always priced per-segment? Can you accept indirect routing for same/similar price if that is all that is available? (similar manner to AA). Eg with EK, BKK-DXB not available, but BKK-HKG and HKG-DXB available...

    Duty refund on leaving AU

    Just wondering about ordering something from USA and having it shipped to me in AU. It is over $1k in value, so would be liable for GST/Duty inbound. But I would be leaving back for Europe less than a week later. Is it possible to have it refunded in these cases? (ie. immediate export)...

    QF on EK codeshares - I class gone?

    QF seems to have become more restrictive with bookings on EK codeshares over the past few months. Just noticed today that I class isn't listed anymore on the trans-tasman 380 codeshares. Business sale fares also not available on QF website. Seems to cause problems/false availability when...

    Any disadvantages of Booking BA longhaul WTP on AA Code?

    As per the title, just wondering if there are any disadvantages booking WTP on AA code? The real items of interest are - the effect on op-up chances (I realise this is a long shot, but BA actually do seem to op-up pax occasionally from WTP) and use of Avios upgrade voucher (not particularly...

    BA Silver moving back to AU

    Hi, I have a friend who is a BA Silver and is moving back to AU after a few years in London, as we all do. Since BA don't specifically offer a program to AU residents, does Qantas offer a match/transfer in these circumstances? If not, you'd have to do the whole two cards, change program in...

    Shipping an LED as checked baggage?

    Might sound ridiculous to some, but have been wondering about shipping one of my old TVs next time I fly. I've done this with other electronic stuff packed in their original boxes with 'fragile' stickers without issue... The box only weighs 16kg and is just long and slim. I would imagine it...

    30day AC passes for Cathay W class Aus-Europe?

    Hi, Just wondering if the 30day AC passes would be of help with Cathay PE flights to the UK? Looking at the AA site seems as though you may need to fly Qantas to use QF lounges with AC pass? Does this restriction exist for QC members? Thanks.
