This was my first time visiting PQQ and my first real trip in about 18 months. Gosh, I didn't realise how much I missed airports :eek: Long story short, I decided to fly up and spend the weekend with a friend. So... onto the trip! First time flying QantasLink and first time in a Dash-8 Yep -...

After seeing fellow AFFer Katie's thread on building a pavillion out back, it reminded me that I hadn't posted about the deck out back of my place. This is the deck that has been about 4 years in the making... Short backstory: There was a big slab of concrete out the back of my house when I...

Hi all Just returned from a trip to Fiji for a friends wedding, enjoyed great return flights in J thanks to QFF. Really, it was thanks to the team on here. I tend to lurk alot and the amount of tips and information I gathered on here has helped me not only build my FF account but work out the...

Hi AFFers Parents have Qantas Premier cc which gives 2 passes to lounge per year, they use it every year for their annual pilgrimage to the USA every October. DF tried to link the passes online to their flights and couldn’t. He phoned QF customer service who advised “we are unable to provide...

My brother had a "whoops" moment this morning, detained for interview by the AFP because he forgot he had his kubotan (martial arts training tool/deadly weapon) with him. Luckily, all that happened was it was confiscated and he received a warning not to carry weapons on planes. Reminded me of...

Hi all, I can't seem to find a definitive answer on this, so apologies if my sleuthing wasn't very good and this has been answered... however... When taking QF11 from SYD-JFK with a change of metal at LAX, is it simply a matter of disembarking, clearing customs & immigration, then transiting...

Hi all, I have the basic ANZ Frequent Flyer card, with VISA and AMEX attached. Last month only VISA pts posted to QF account. No AMEX. My question, do I contact FF about this or ANZ? Anyone had this issue before? EDIT: Spoke to ANZ and they confirmed it is a system-wide issue for December...

Hi All I think I shot myself in the foot here, so I'm asking for the advice of those more knowledgeable! I booked a one way award seat to NYC for next October, and now I need to return leg. I assumed (I know... I know) a one way ticket was half that of a return, but it's not looking that way...

Hi All Fair way in advance, but next October I'm flying QF11 SYD-JFK via LAX. I understand the second leg of this route uses metal from QF15 (BNE-JFK via LAX). Mum will be in LA and wants to get the same flight to JFK with me - anyone know if it's possible to book the second leg of this route...

Hi AFFers :) After searching I couldn't find much book discussion on AFF, and thought it might be fun to see what everyone is reading, what's recommended etc? Currently I'm reading Up In The Air by Betty Reigel - stories from a Pan Am flight attendant. I read it a few years ago and am enjoying...

Hi everyone I'm Chels, new here. Came across the forums through Google and realised how incredible the amount of information was here. I tend to fly to the USA every 2 years, and the family does every year. Looking forward to learning lots :)
