    Qantas frequent flyers unleash over ‘almost worthless points’ in submissions to Senate

    The days of “loss leaders” in any business are long gone. Why would someone sell at a loss in this economic or political climate ? More likely they have looked at where to move aircraft around and capitalise on that to get seats full with either full paying or “reward” seats where they get...

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    I'm a little confused. Currently Gold with PC+ and Green from the previous year. Have completed 3 of the green leaf's and although last year the quiz met one of the leaf options this year it g does 100 normal qantas points via the wellbeing app. If I hit the other 2 "leaf" requirements, does it...

    Qantas to outsource ground handling across Australia

    I'm no big investor however I would be more than pissed to find out that a CEO could have been "saving" a company $100million a year by outsourcing and receiving the same level of service as what is currently being provided. Something does not sit right with these numbers, Comments ?

What kind of message does Qantas send when they offer a 1 point for $1 spend via afterpay yet charge...
