    Best price/performance ticket purchase for upgrading with points to business class?

    Thanks everyone! Really helpful info. I reckon we just pay for Premium Economy and roll the dice - if it doesn't go through, no big deal, she'll at least get some sleep.

    Best price/performance ticket purchase for upgrading with points to business class?

    Hi all, Apologies for the stupid question, I couldn't find a guide or post which seemed to answer this question but if you can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it! My wife is travelling from CBR to IAD in August and we'd like to upgrade to business class flights with QF if we...

    Qatar Airways - not a pretty story

    Having read that article, it certainly will adjust my flight booking habits.

    27th February Big Qantas announcement

    It has to be a partial sell-off of the QFF programme.

    Very ordinary treatment by J CSM

    It's not like he slapped my wife or swore at her! Though if he'd slapped her, you'd probably have seen my name in the papers by now. ;)

    Very ordinary treatment by J CSM

    I must say that that was the gist of the Qantas customer service person who rang me yesterday. I said that I understood if the poor CSM was having a bad day, and that we were just the last straw for him, but she (Qantas CS) said that it was no excuse. I sincerely hope that he's not in any real...

    Very ordinary treatment by J CSM

    Fair enough. I redacted the name calling. He's still wrong.

    Very ordinary treatment by J CSM

    Point 5 is not him disagreeing with me. He, through a lack of reading or comprehension, has suggested that I'd leave my two children unattended on an aircraft. Pull your head in, chuckles.

    Very ordinary treatment by J CSM

    Absolutely. If he'd said to sit down, I'd have told my wife that we'd sort it all out when we landed in CBR - I would have spoken with the QF service desk there and asked them to call the J lounge in Melbourne. No problem at all. Heck, I'm one of the few regular(ish) flyers that still watch the...

    Very ordinary treatment by J CSM

    I did so. Just got off the phone with Qantas CC and the matter simply could not have been resolved better. I'm back to loving QF again. :D

    Very ordinary treatment by J CSM

    You want a medal? Again I ask, what SHOULD I have done? I agree that me running to the lounge held up the plane by 5 minutes (and no more). I agree that it was my wife's fault for leaving her phone there, but accidents happen and it's not a huge one. I don't, however, accept that it's my FAULT...

    Very ordinary treatment by J CSM

    For sure. I don't mean that as some snobby DYKWIA person! I really meant that they'd do that to avoid holding up the flight, and I'd pay for the Express Post bag back to Canberra or something like that.

    Very ordinary treatment by J CSM

    Rant away. 3) That is specifically what happened. The guy at the door of the aircraft told me to speak to the 'ground crew', and I went to them, and they told me to 'run to the lounge' (VERBATIM). 5) <redacted by OP> Of course not. My wife lost HER phone, she was in 3A (as I had swapped my seat...

    The story from the CSM? I don't know what I have to gain from telling mistruths on AFF.

    Very ordinary treatment by J CSM

    And let me be clear, I didn't ask to hold up the plane. I actually thought that they would just call the lounge and either have the phone mailed to us, or that they would send someone from the lounge to meet me halfway. Instead, the ground crew told me to run to the lounge, so I did as directed...
