Just got a QBR survey on Sustainable Aviation Fuel and carbon Offset products. They got both barrels from me. QF have so much low hanging fruit in their decarbonisation journey - electrifying ground ops, solar on terminals and maintenance facilities, electrifying regional flights, supporting...

Recently I’ve been using this new all-electric car service to MEL. They are a startup with 8 cars mainly BYD Atto 3s with more on the way. Book in advance and pay through the app or on the car. They’ve been reliable and cheaper than Uber, definitely cheaper than Uber Electric. I pay $43...

I want to buy a bike in Japan and bring it back to Oz. Simplest thing to do would be to get it delivered to to the kuroneko counter at Narita and check it in. I’d expect checkin to be sticklers with the tape measure but, the shipping box exceeds the Qantas maximum bike dimensions bike some...

Couldn't find an answer to this. What's the best way to switch FF number on a QR booking? I want to use my qantas WP for seat selection but collect VA status credits (and miles)

I couldn't find a thread on this even though I am sure I've seen the question answered before./ I've got multiple qantas travel passes, some with only a little bit on them - is there a way to use multiple or combine them together? It's getting hard for me to use them for business travel as we...

Checking my recent activity after a couple of Cathay flight to see if they’d credited yet; and there’s a bunch of zeroed items all listed as NOT PROVIDED XX-FEB-2023. Any ideas what these are and if I should do anything about them? Screenshot of some recent activity.

Has anyone had any recent success with upgrades using AsiaMiles? I’ve got MEL-HKG-NRT and return booked in PE, can’t see any award availability on line and wondering if it’s worth a call to them.

Probably in the same boat as many. I was on track to easily retain my status (WP) this year, I've already got more than 500 SC to roll over. So there's no great value in crediting to Qantas for the rest of my year (feb-23) Options BA seems like the obvious one. Points are useful, other ways...

Honestly I don't know why I am even trying this. Looking for some european internal flights, GVA- BCN and QF shows classic award availability via MAD on IB that times that suit. BA, IB and Expert flyer don't show anything. But for the cost of loaning 105 CHF to Qantas (and the pain I will spend...

I bought an SCTI policy for a trip to Europe starting in a couple of weeks. Purchase was back in May and according to the website coverage started back then. Since then my flights have been moved a couple of days earlier. Looking at the policy docs it seems coverage starts when you buy the...

I booked a good business class fare to Europe in July with JAL (through Chase ultimate rewards as I had some points to burn). I'm now on my second rebooking with JAL, first one was a simple schedule change, no worries there. Second one is because all they canned the melbourne flight . I've just...

I couldn’t find an appropriate thread, but please merge if there is one. Since at least 2019 I have had issues selected Qantas seats through MMB online and the app. I’ve been WP the whole time but I never (rarely?) get access to the seat map I just get the screen that lets me preference window...

With travel, hopefully opening up soon, it’s time for a for a little tea-leaf reading about what the COVID situation is likely to be in the northern hemisphere as it passes into winter. I probably care most about the UK, followed by Japan. A friend sent me this which lays out 3 scenarios for...

Just received an invite by email to the Qantas Money App, 300 points for signing in. Downloaded and It looks like something that has aspirations of being a PocketBook, Mint or similar. I've been looking for something like this and it'll be interesting to see how it develops and how Qantas use...

Kaligo is a hotel booking site that gives miles in a large number of programs including Singapore, Japan Airlines, Virgin Velocity and many others. There are often very good bonus offers especially for Singapore. Hotels wise their coverage is good in Asia and less good elsewhere but still...

This may help a few people. One of the benefits of the altitude black MasterCard is a year of SPG gold status on completion of a single stay. This is great because it gets gold at SPG and marriot properties. I have a lot of travel booked for the back half of the year but nothing that would...

Great site, very useful. Helping me to a couple of business class trips to Asia every year.
