    I have been threatened by my booking reference

    I have just made a premium economy award booking and my booking reference is somewhat alarming. An anagram of YOUDIE. Apparently I cannot get it changed.

    Booking with AIRNZ or Third Party site

    I am looking at premium economy fare to USA. On Kayak I am offered a fare about $600 cheaper than I can see on AIRNZ site for the same dates. I am suspicious about how genuine the KAYAK site is. Any experience out there.

    It appears once your Australian accent is heard at Fairmont you become very second class and not deserving.

    What happens when you cancel an award

    I have read the T & Cs but now need it in "plane" English. If I book an award ie BNE-LAX return now at the 15% discount rate what happens if I need to cancel. It appears they do not treat it the same way as QFF.

    When will we be able to book premium economy

    Now QF advise that from 02/08 they will be offering premium economy on 744 to Europe. When do you all think it will be available to book online (obviously means some extra programming for the site). Or will it only be bookable through a TA? Or will they all be kept to upgrade Y to Y+...

    Does or will Velocity allow Family Transfer of points
