After taking a brickbat over being served just a bowl of soup on a Haneda to Sydney flight in December our experience on QF019 was a breath of fresh air. Being a daytime flight to Manila we were expecting something reasonably substantial. The food was excellent. The prawn entree was delicious...

Came home last night on QF26 from Haneda to Sydney. Despite being in the 1st row of J they were out of duck and the sandwich by the time my order was taken. Only options were fish, which I don't like, so it was a bowl of pumpkin soup. Soup was good, as was bread roll, but soup and a bowl of...

I have booked an award flight to London on Emirates J class in November. There is only 1 hour and 5 minutes listed between our arrival in Dubai and the next flight to Gatwick. Is this too tight? Speaking with Emirates today they said it will be fine but I am still a bit nervous. Any wisdom...

I am leaving Sydney tomorrow in my first ever cruise. 9 days in the South Pacific. Initially Royal Caribbean were banning everyone with a Hong Kong or Chinese passport. They have just rescinded that policy but anyone who has been in Hong Kong or China recently wont be allowed to travel. I am not...

On a flight last week from Gold Coast to Sydney I was instructed to use the J toilet even though I was in Y. She was quite emphatic.

Absolutely disgusting. Since having major surgery some years ago it is very difficult for me to swallow still water, it feels like swallowing concrete. So I must have sparkling water. Being denied sparkling water like that is a very poor decision by Qantas and a PR disaster.

Yes I am flying business out of BKK. I am amazed Qantas don't have a lounge there anymore.

Just an update: I did get one guest in but the second one was told in no uncertain terms they could not get in. Fortunately I had a guest pass they could use. They were like kids in a lolly shop in the lounge. I shouted them an upgrade on Garuda to J. It inspired them to keep studying hard to...

Good afternoon all. I am flying to Bangkok at the end of the week on Emirates in J using QF points. Coming home a few weeks later my friend in flying Y on the same Emirates flight. I would like to get him onto a lounge but I understand I cannot access QC seeing I am booking on an EK ticket...

I applied for this card three weeks go and after hearing no updates I phoned them today. Infuriating! Talking to an offshore call centre doesn't have to be bad but the English of the guy I spoke to was appalling. After confirming a lot of ID information he could not give me a straight answer on...

I am flying to BKK on Emirates in J using QF points. I have a friend on the same flight who is flying on a paid Y ticket. I am assuming I will be able to get access to the lounge but will I be able to bring a guest in? I am a Qantas club member so I might be able to get into the QClub with him...

I am going to JFK in September. Can Qantas club members access the Admirals club if flying AA domestic?

Thanks for the positive feedback everyone. Very encouraging.

I am flying in J to Jakarta this week. My nephew and niece are on the same flight. I am going to try and get them into the Qantas Club in Sydney just by asking at the desk. I am wondering though if I can check myself through the Business check in as well as them afterwards? They are not seasoned...

My Qantas club membership is due for renewal and I am not sure whether to renew it or not. I don't fly a lot. International once a year and domestic about 2 -3 times a year. When I do fly internationally I normally fly in J on points so have access to the club anyway. When I do fly domestic I...

Well 2 out of 2. I took the direct approach and asked poliltely and the responce was overwhelmingly positive. My guest was made to fel extra welcome, which was a huge treat for her. She has lived quite a sheltered life so she thought the club was wonderful and felt quite special to have a...

Thanks everyone. I will ask and smile lots. Well worth a try.

I am travelling to QLD out of Sydney on Monday. I will take my wife into the QC as my guest but we now have an extra person travelling with us. How strict are the gate keepers with the guest rules? Is there a way to get a guest pass quickly? Or can we be so bold as to ask someone entering the...

I am a QC member. I am travelling on Jetstar from Singapore to connect with a EK flight from KL to Melbourne in J. The QC in Singapore wont be open in the morning. Can I access the Emirates lounge seeing I am QC or connecting onto a EK flight in J? Thanks so much.

Put me down for Nov 23rd at 10:33pm
