    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic award seats?

    If there are Sale seats available you can ask for them to be released as Classic Reward, I think.

    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic award seats?

    Wait until they drop a sale and apply again?

    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic award seats?

    How long is a reasonable wait before agitating when the seat/s are shown as requested and what is the wording to get a decision?

    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    You just missed the half price sale I think. Maybe keep an eye on the specials page, or use Jetstars Friday Frenzy?

    Qantas extends status extensions until end June 2023 (previously December 2022)

    I am a September cycle member and I booked a flight for early 2022 on the last day of this cycle. SC were rolled over, enough to get a headstart on retaining QP this year.

    QF DSC - Domestic only | Book by 30 Mar | Travel 31 Mar 2021 to 28 Feb 2022

    As I understand it, if the booking reference remains the same you should?

    QF DSC - Domestic only | Book by 30 Mar | Travel 31 Mar 2021 to 28 Feb 2022

    I had a DPS trip booked during the last DSC offer and QF were explicit about the Flight Credit continuing to earn DSC until I used it or it expired. Did you get an email confirming you had converted to a Flight Credit?

    Predictions of when international flights may resume/bans lifted

    The Oxford vaccine is using the corona virus spike protein (inactivated) to condition the immune system into recognizing the virus. If the spike protein is the same between the various strains it should work against all of them - fingers crossed.

    Microsoft Flight Simulator to be released August 18th

    It doesn't want more than four cores(yet) so if your CPU is fairly recent you might be able to save some money there. Graphics power however seems to be the sticking point, unless you're cool with 1080p.

    Qantas improves conditions on vouchers

    Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere. If you had a voucher due to cancelling your travel before this mess got so bad and used it -say this week- to book a flight/s overseas on dates that are currently selling but the flights were cancelled closer to the departure date would you be...

    Microsoft Flight Simulator to be released August 18th

    Will crashes be nerfed though? Always disappointing to try some extreme flight heroism and have the aircraft just bounce off the planet or a bland screen freeze.

    Driving to Sydney Airport

    Less confusing than standing in place to get the next train to arrive?

    Driving to Sydney Airport

    Changing at Wolli Ck means negotiating lifts/stairs and a change of platform. My suggestion is the same as yours without the extra steps. Don't assume the automated trip widget was programmed by someone who actually works on the railways.

    Driving to Sydney Airport

    If you're coming from the south it's probably easier to change at Campbelltown and take the train via East Hills than going all the way to Central and having to navigate the construction works for the new CCP robot train. Jump off at Campbelltown Platform 2, jump on the next train (same...

    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    Except QF isn't awarding points or SC on the repatriation flights. So status is now more of a feeling instead of a perk...

    DFAT Warning [Do NOT Travel overseas]

    And equally and more likely I will not. I know how to hand wash and live alone. Not a huge risk of me getting it or spreading it. The big problem atm as I see it is all the Chicken Littles freaking out about End of Days extreme possibilities instead of being rational. Thanks for your input though.

    DFAT Warning [Do NOT Travel overseas]

    Question for the hive mind... I am due to fly to BKK tomorrow AM for a three night stay arriving back in SYD from SIN (QF2 if it is not going via Perth yet) at 0610. It's a status run and a treat after doing a long stint with the fires. Will I be let back in?

    All International Arrivals into Australia to self isolate for 14 days

    Get inventive. If you leave town with a bare cupboard and nothing in your freezer then it'll be a learning curve. I'd expect that most folk returning home would have enough adulting under their belt to make do until friends or family could muster an aid drop.

    Current QF/OW lounge access rules

    I have a similar question and instead of starting a new thread I thought I'd piggyback on this one... Plat on AA tickets, with two Bronze teenage children, all in Y. Lounge access at LAX travelling AA to DFW? Lounge access at DFW on the way to SYD AA ticket/QF metal? I've checked the Oneworld...

    Qantas law unto themselves - don't waste your time with ACA complaint

    I have a full time job and a part time job. Both have a little trueism that goes along the lines of " If you're not five minutes early then you're already late". I've found it to be great advice over the years. Works for any situation from catching a plane to winning a gunfight. If that's...
