    CBR-SYD Options

    Was thinking of leaving Canberra around 5pm. Hopefully get to hotel near the Rocks in Sydney by 9pm. Would this timing allow me to miss the Sydney traffic? Or can i leave earlier, aiming to arrive in Sydney around 8pm. If I pick up a rental car in CBR how do I deal with the tolls in Sydney?

    CBR-SYD Options

    So no one would recommend driving? It’s a one way trip from CBR to SYD. Wouldn’t the bus get stuck in traffic?

    First time on EK

    Thanks for the replies. Understand the lounge situation. So if I book with QF codeshare: Can I still use business class check in, extra baggage allowance and priority boarding as QFF silver? Would this also be the case if I have to book with EK?

    First time on EK

    I'm a Lifetime QFF Silver and QC member. Need to travel from Aus to Prague. EK have a direct flight from DBX to PRG. Is it better to book the QF codeshare or should I book direct with emirates? If booking the QF codeshare, I would only get lounge access in DBX anyway as a QC member. So lounge...

    LAX Hotel and Car Rental

    Can anyone please advise: Need a rental car at LAX. I'm thinking of staying one night at an airport hotel and picking up the car the next day to get over the jetlag.

    Baggage Allowance with KFEG

    Do Singapore Airlines KFEG members get an extra piece of check in bags on Virgin Australia in economy? (SYD-PER) Or is it just extra weight (still one piece)? I had a look on Virgin Australia's website but they don't mention KFEG at all.

    Priority boarding on QF domestic - what is the story?

    Is there PB out of PER international for the flight to SIN? Only a SG these days. Haven't flown QF since they cancelled the PER-SIN flight all those years ago. I couldn't get a seat on SQ, so I had to book QF this time around.

    PDX-SFO Flights and Interlining Bags UA to SQ

    If I have 2 separate bookings PDX-SFO on UA and SFO-SIN on SQ, can I still interline the bags at PDX and have them checked all the way through to SIN? Is it quite safe to do this? Or should I collect my bags at SFO and re-check for the SFO-SIN flight? Is there enough time if I catch the UA...

    SFO to New Orleans to PDX

    Have you guys got any creative ideas on how to get from SFO-MSY-PDX? UA seem to be the only airline that flies direct from SFO-MSY. But there's only one flight a day, and it arrives after 5pm. There doesn't seem to be anyone that flies direct between MSY-PDX. I've only got 2 travelling days...

    Successful ASA Bookings booked at classic rates Reference Guide

    I take it there's no way to book any seat awards that still earn SC? Sorry if this is a silly question. I haven't had the need to fly QF for a very long time and haven't been keeping up with all the enhancements of the QFF program.

    Time to give up on Qantas

    I was forced to fly SQ between PER-SIN simply because QF deleted the route. After numerous flights on SQ, including long haul to the UK, I have decided that even if QF reinstate the PER-SIN flight I will not fly QF. SQ has 4 flights a day and they have the 777, which is far roomier than the...
