    AS baggage benefits for QFF?

    Hi all, What about if it is an AA flight number operated by AS or Horizon Air as AlaskaHorizon, do you get any baggage benefits then as QF SG or WP?

    Qantas 2016 Half Year results

    Another reason could be the franking credit balance. If they need to chew through a few tax losses before they have to actually start paying tax again, then it makes sense to do buybacks until they can frank the dividend.

    Downloading podcasts in the lounges

    I've had trouble downloading podcasts in Melbourne/Brisbane/Cairns QPs for several months. Worked in the Cairns reef lounge and even the Air Nuigini lounge in Port Moresby. I've left feedback about it to Qantas a few times, but nothing has changed as of last week. Edit: Also works at home, or...

    Booking with voucher.

    This sometimes happens with me - not with residual vouchers, but vouchers bought and then used to buy flights later on the same day. If I buy a $50 voucher and then redeem it, problems often happen, such as the one above. Other times it does create the flight record but the tax invoice is often...

    Qantas Club / Admirals Club Access

    Might be onto something. While it was mid morning, when I was at a PHX AC (formerly USair club) a month ago, I was not given any drink chits, although I was not after a drink so did not ask for one. Entered as SG rather than QP member.

    Qantas Club / Admirals Club Access

    This confusion and discussion about it must pop up every three months or so. I have visited ACs as a QP member many times, although for the last few years I've been SG. Never had any trouble. Even on recent visits I've seen others flying AA flights with AA boarding passes (don't know about AA...

    [Qantas] Website Problem [21-09-15]

    I had a go the third time. It did not let me in but the number of failed goes had been reset, so I still have two more

    [Qantas] Website Problem [21-09-15]

    There is certainly a problem. Tried logging in twice with correct details - its saying incorrect login details and that the website is unavailable due to maintenance. Might try again once it seems all clear, otherwise I'll be out of even correct login attempts

    Transfer at HNL

    Now that the trip is done, I'll let you know what happened. JQ can issue a boarding pass at the gate. I asked at the HNL QP and they rang through my passport details to Jetstar staff. The QP cannot issue a JQ boarding pass themselves. A JQ ground staff member came to the QP to get my passport...

    Jetstar $5 Gift Vouchers

    I also tried a week ago to buy the voucher with the Plus Pack allowance - the flight attendant didn't know so checked with the CSM and was told - on-board food and beverage only

    Qantas 737 Refurbishment tracker

    Seems to me that the row 30 has a little less width. Is this an artifact of the drawing? Makes me wonder as the aircraft body is narrowing, and the spare space seems to have been consumed by row 29. I would think, on the basis of this drawing that either row 30 seats have to be a little...

    Transfer at HNL

    Presume that there is, but HNL is not a "straight to gate" listed port, so I also presume that if I do OLCI then I'll still need the BP checked. I'm connecting through LAX, so I could do the OLCI at the AC there, but there may be no point.

    Transfer at HNL

    Which is correct (domestic inbound to HNL), but as I understand it, I'll have to leave airside to get a Jetstar boarding pass groundside and then go through TSA again.

    gift voucher a good idea?

    My experience is that there are no Paypal fees. I also find that you need to have sufficient Jetstar vouchers to cover the entire booking. So you'll need your 3x $500 plus some smaller ones to make up the difference, otherwise the booking fees come back in their entirity. Make sure the default...

    Transfer at HNL

    Hi all, Did a search around and could not find what I was looking for. Is it possible with carry on only to fly in from the US mainland, go to the transfer desk at HNL airside (do they even have one?) and get a Jetstar boarding pass, or does one have to pass out through security and check in...

    Feels Like Home

    I like it, and have certainly experienced that emotional pull of the roo tail being the plane you board for that final leg back to Oz after a long hard trip. Not the same if it's a codeshare of course! If QF see this as an important part of their competitive advantage, hopefully it might lead...

    Qantaslink CNS POM Domestic fare buckets or International

    I agree that the posted earning is as per the fare bucket assigned: V. The problem is using V for a "Fully Flexible" international fare. I think that is misleading.

    Qantaslink CNS POM Domestic fare buckets or International

    Hi all, Recently flew this segment on a "Fully Flexible" ticket, but booked into V. It credited at the Economy rate rather than Flexible Economy. Seems like there are few occasions that anything would book into Flexible Economy as far as FF earn rates are concerned. Clearly a $800 fare can only...
