I called QF and they cancelled my booking without cancellation penalty for a 1 hour timing change. No questions asked.

In the olden days, if your flight had even a small time change, your booking online would give you the option to either accept the new timing, or cancel the flight for free. In the recent flight retimings it appears that QF is immediately reissuing your e-ticket. Is it still possible to call...

Strangely I see availability as a QF plat that I can’t see when I search on BA or CX.

Yeah...so no points for non Australian addresses?

Did Platinums receive an email about the free 15,000 miles? I received an email about the status extension but nothing about miles.

Anyone think that QF has analysed how many people will fall off status due to reduced work travel (amongst other reasons), and therefore dressing up status extensions as an apology?

Has anyone been stopped coming back into Australia where customs has said something like "We saw you claimed TRS GST refund, do you have these items with you coming back?"

As of 1 April the 600 status credits expired….so one month late to expire my credits. Boo hoo.

Has this been extended? I just received an email and seems it is now open to international residents. https://www.qantas.com/sg/en/frequent-flyer/member-offers/thanks-a-million-row.html#important-information

I wonder if this is why as a Hong Kong member, when my membership year rolled over, I still have 600 status credits that haven't disappeared. ie QF knows they've given the equivalent of double status credits to overseas members already. I am actually in the middle of moving to Australia - I...

Yeah it’s strange….no expiry of my status credits for my year to Feb 2022, it shows that I need 600 credits to renew platinum this year. Will update here if there’s any changes.

It shows nothing related to these 600 status credits. Does it take a few days into the new membership year before they get zeroed? It's been a long time since we've had proper travel so I've forgotten these things.

Last year I received the status credit boost of 600 points. Aside from that, since I am based in Hong Kong I earned no other status credits. My year ended in Feb 2022 and I was auto-renewed to Feb 2023. As of today, my status credit balance is still 600 - do you think QF has given me another...

International travel is back, and domestic travel is opening up. However given that a lot of people's status was earned by business travel, do you think that Qantas might continue to lower status qualification levels for the next 1-2 years? In the immediate future, I think business travel is...

I'm pretty sure that CL membership is not for gaining business via word of mouth :)

I would hazard a guess (and it's mentioned in the "article") that those who really lost their CL membership, are those that are truly no longer in a position of influence due to their job changes, or if their company signed a contract with someone other than QF etc.

Saw this article “gossiping” about the Chairman’s Lounge membership list review. Not quite sure why qantas is getting flak for their communication: https://www.smh.com.au/national/qantas-flyers-see-red-over-chairman-s-lounge-snub-20210927-p58v7l.html

The HKG lounge was definitely better than a Qantas club and also better than the SYD J international lounge. There were also a number of HK based travellers (me included) who would choose to go to the QF lounge instead of the CX J lounge. Better quality food in the QF lounge and bar tenders who...

I believe that the QF lounges opened before there was a terminal connector between TBIT and T4. Unsure whether the connector was considered when planning the oneworld/QF lounges. Regardless, they’re technically different terminals so unlikely sending QF passengers to the AA lounges would have...

If anything, overseas members would be contributing more revenue to QF as the airline partners pay QF for the QF points awarded for travel.
