Hi all. Unless I am missing something, I am unable to combine a classic reward with a classic plus reward as a multi city booking. In fact, classic reward plus seats do not appear at all in a multi city search despite showing in a point-to-point search. So how would I be able to make one...

My family of 4 are travelling together Mackay to Melbourne via Brisbane. Mum and dad (me) have a reward seat booking made with QF while my two teenage boys have a separate ticket paid fare booked through Amex Travel. Soon after making both bookings, I called Qanats to link the bookings. I have...

A search for a flight from Hong Kong to Stockholm brings up the option of a booking comprising of two KLM flights via Amsterdam: HKG-AMS-ARN. The connection time in Amsterdam is 1hr 10min. As both Netherlands and Sweden are Schengen Zone do I clear immigration in Netherlands or Sweden ? The...

Hi, direct flights from MEL or SYD to HKG only have availability showing until 31 March 2024. Does anyone know when the post 1 April 2024 schedule will be released ?

Hi I have two forthcoming flights on a QF Boeing 787 in premium economy class: MEL-LAX-MEL. It is my first time in this class. Do the complementary headphones only fit the in-seat input socket which I suspect is 2 pin or do they also fit a single pin device such a tablet/phone? I have my own...

Hi my family and I were flying BME-MEL direct on 30 September. This date happens to coincide with the tail end of Victorian school holidays so I would assume there was healthy demand. Flight has been cancelled and now we are flying via PERTH. There now only seems to be 2 direct flights per week...

Hi has anyone rented through Turo whether in the USA or elsewhere? Car rental prices are crazy in the USA at the moment and I need a car for days 18 ex Los Angeles. The prices and car choices on Turo are very tempting. I would only rent from an experienced host who upon reading their reviews do...

On two recent Avis bookings, Broome and Launceston , if I logged into my Avis preferred account to search for a car the price was more than double compared to not logging in ! The same higher rate also applied via booking through the Qantas website. Is this always the case ? I also recently...

Hi will be cancelling a 4 award seat booking in about 7 days. I booked as multi city unmarried sectors, hence EACH flight below MAY potentially revert back to an award seat for someone else to book: MEL-SIN business class with Jetstar (11 June) SIN-DOH economy class with Qatar (11 June)...

Hi, I have previously noticed when cancelling award seats that were for QF and partner airlines, the seats returned to the inventory immediately for someone else to grab. Is this always the case? I have some pending international cancellations and if others were interested in the...

So Mr. Alan Joyce blames extensive call centre wait times on people who could manage their enquiry on line but rather call. Mmm....I have two QF award seat bookings with Qatar, MEL-FRA and MUC-MEL. I am able to separate passengers on MEL-FRA but not MUC-MEL. I am loathe to telephone for this...

As of yesterday ANZ Qantas credit cards no longer earn points on government charges. This includes things like council rates and car registration. The only card alternative (excluding AMEX) I can find that earns points on government charges is CBA however the earn rate is only 0.4 points/dollar...

Switching from Qantas frequent flyer to Singapore KrisFlyer Hi after many years with Qantas FF including many no issue redemptions, recent experiences with both the call centre and on-line booking capabilities have made me consider an alternative. Has anyone done the switch to KrisFlyer either...

Hi can anyone recommend rental car excess insurance ? So far in my research prices have varied significantly, $95 - $350 for 22 days coverage in Europe. My concern is not so much the price but not having any difficulties should I need to make a claim.

HI, I have a paid fare with Qatar Airways, Zagreb to Melbourne. The fare is fully refundable. There are now award seats available on the very same flights, there were none before. I suspect if I book the award seats it won't ticket as Qatar will recognise that I am already on the flights. Would...
