    Nothing in my app 11:30am, email offer received about 3 hours prior. As mentioned above, probably pushing out in batches. I was offered the 75/500, platinum status, 30,000 miles flown prior year.

    I just booked 3 different AA flights directly on their website and Amadeus was continuously flashing up as the URL whirred through its processes.

    Qantas New Partner - BP

    As a Plat QFF chasing LTG, and a believer in BP being the best-refined 98RON for my beloved V8.... hooray, about time. Woollies is soon to get all my supermarket shopping back off Coles, as flybuysVA, for my profile, was just an end to the odd $10 BP fuel discounts, which I only redeem at those...

    Qantas T-80 no longer a thing?

    Like you, I am a regular Syd-Mel flyer (weekly return trip for weekends at home) and 99% of time get row 4 @T-80 or T-79. I have sat next to CL regulars who get automatic shadows in middle row but these usually end up with bum on seat. I am OC so often review bookings earlier than T-80 and...

    Welcome to the new qantas call centre

    Call centre roulette. Sometimes a competent operator, sometimes not. My gripe with QF call centre is a general tone of rudeness with some of the upstarts in TAS. I haven’t been routed to off shore call centres yet - perhaps WP gets Aus operators, along with much shorter wait times thankfully...

    Rockpool group no longer offering QFF points from 15th August 2019

    Don’t mind, so long as overrated Mr Ponytail and his woeful menus go with it.

    Are Qantas Double Status Credit Promos Really Worth It?

    Worth it if LTG is a goal for QP access until boarding passes exchange for a zimmer frame.

    Qantas FF announcement 20 June - "biggest overhaul" in program history

    Right now, in mt immediate short term view, so long as the OWA RTW remains unchanged, I don’t care much... except for the extra dom Jlounge congestion.

    Inflight announcement ideas

    Thanks to the oh so thoughtful gent behind me in 5C yesterday on QF488, I thought as a service to all travellers, that boarding announcements could do with a friendly reminder to sneeze and cough into elbows/tissues/hankies. Yes, announcement overload has been discussed here before, but such a...

    Suggestions on best way to burn 600,000 points before soft landing to SG

    Thanks @Lynda2475 have thought about this, it is tempting but due to Scomo’s win I may lean towards preserving the good Veda rating. Hmm, decisions.

    Suggestions on best way to burn 600,000 points before soft landing to SG

    Thanks @mrsterryn good tip. Now @jase05 has me costing up purchasing 150K points at $3.7k, and working out if building another 140K through other methods, to go all out for 2x420K.

    Suggestions on best way to burn 600,000 points before soft landing to SG

    Thanks @Kangol was toying with this on the calculator today, it is tempting but I’m unlikely to remain WP after this year - and want the other half to enjoy some flounge action. If however I can work out some decent status runs exHKG or DPS for about $3/sc, I may push the entire plan out further...

    Suggestions on best way to burn 600,000 points before soft landing to SG

    Thanks @Longtoo in my 20 years of regular travel, intl legs only even on CX/QF and yours is the 2nd recommendation here for the Qsuit so I'll make it my mission to include. An American mate of mine always comes down under on Qatar so I'm guessing Qsuite is best on a return leg from North...
