I very recently applied and was approved for a new NAB rewards platinum card and had no problem getting it. I expected some questioning as nearly all of our income comes from our SMSF, and we are both retired. All I gave them was the SMSF's last tax return and it was approved quickly. I wanted...

Que sera sera! We nearly missed an Aer Lingus flight a few years ago due to so many security checks and we must have had our photos taken four or five times on the way through. My wife always says just smile and be patient! I'm in F on the way up in QF1, so should be off quickly too.

thank you Lynda2475, that's reassuring. I have both Irish/EU and Australian passports and will be staying in Eire. Hopefully QF1 will be on time into Heathrow and if so, I've got plenty of time to negotiate the security lines. Qantas has received a deserved bashing lately but I'm still looking...

thank you, great site. It seems to indicate that If I don't have any checked baggage, I can just follow the purple signs in T3 and then take the free airside bus to T5 without clearing immigration and collecting any baggage. Seven hours should be enough for any Qantas delays - hopefully! Happy...

apologies if this has already been discussed. I am on QF1 into Heathrow, hopefully at around 6.30am on 8 November, with a transit before a BA flight to Dublin. The BA flight leaves T5 at around 13.30 and I'm hoping this is enough time for the transit bearing in mind QF1's atrocious delays. I am...

both invitations now gone

I have two Qantas general lounge invitations that expire 18 September 23, which I will not use. Free to first member/s to PM me with surname and ff number. Would prefer they are used for an international flight and by a member with at least 20 posts. "General: can be used at any Qantas Club...

pass now gone to good use.

I have one general lounge invitation expires 2nd September 23. PM me with QF number and surname if you would like it. "General – can be used at any Qantas Club domestic lounge, Qantas International Lounge or Qantas operated International Business Lounge (excluding Los Angeles Tom Bradley...

I checked this morning, and the purported US general has disappeared from the Qantas Facebook page. I'm hoping the FBI got him, but more likely Facebook or Qantas deleted his comments and blocked him, following my stirring. Proves to me that it's worth trying to out these creeps.

Hi again Princess Fiona. I had a look at the Facebook page of one of the creepy responders on Qantas. He was purportedly a US General and widowed. When I did a Google search for him, he is in fact married and working for the US military in Korea. The fake page simply had some of his photos and...

that's a good move by Qantas. It must be hard for the Qantas staff to read some of the rubbish that is posted on their site. I've been a Qantas Club life member since 1990 and apart from the occasional grumble, my experiences have been good when flying with them. Looking forward to a visit to...

I also think it is a shame that Qantas doesn't make some effort to block this type of response post. I hate to see vulnerable people being scammed. I've only got one Facebook friend and never post sorry!

yes I guess you are correct. I don't use Facebook much so haven't checked other sites. I did notice one of the ladies replied to the creepy post and when I checked a couple of the profiles of the "creeps" they didn't seem right.

Morning from a chilly Canberra, I've been monitoring the Qantas Facebook page recently and have noticed more and more what I consider to be creepy responses to posts by females. They usually ask for a friend request to be sent or for a DM to ask a confidential question. You can see what I mean...

Glad you can find something that suits. My wife and I did the Lisbon trip together and our TA booked aisle and window seats for the Y legs, hoping for an empty middle seat. It didn't work on the way up to Lisbon but on the way back to Dubai we did get an empty middle seat so had the three seats...

Beano, we were in PE on the A380 from Melbourne to Dubai and in Y from Dubai to Lisbon on the 777, same on return. The three PE bathrooms on the A380 are in the nose at the front of the PE cabin and were plenty for the PE passengers apart from the fact that the free or occupied lighting system...

I checked the departure of QF1 from Sydney yesterday and it seemed to leave a little bit late but not too bad. So the big delay must have been from Singapore to London. Does anyone know why this happened? Apologies if someone has already advised. I'm going up on QF1 in November and have been...

I have two general Qantas lounge passes expiring 30 August 23 that I don't need. Happy to transfer both. Both gone

We are looking forward to that part of the cruise drron. I check out the Macquarie Island webcam regularly too! I'll also be packing some seasick pills for that leg.
