    Seeking advice on award flight downgrades following cancellations

    Hello All, I had a situation a few weeks ago and I want to seek some advice. Its a bit long winded, but I just want to lay it out so everyone can see the full picture. Before I start, I know things happen and I can't praise the QF staff enough for helping me to 'make it happen'....so this...

    New TRS rules? Goods no longer included in cap?

    So the 'free lunch' ended. Australians wealthy enough to fly overseas and carry items now have to actually pay GST on them, like everyone else. Boo hoo!

    New meaning of Full Flex

    It wasnt a separate ticket, I got my boarding pass SYD - CBR in Wellington, but what I suspect is that staff in international have the ability to hand out accommodation but domestic do not. I do appreciate the staffs effort, and if I didnt have a flight the next morning I would have taken...

    New meaning of Full Flex

    Was returning Wellington -> Canberra, via Sydney on Thursday evening, WLG flight arrived a few minutes early and I tried getting on the earlier 717 flight to CBR... but it was full. Oh well, had to try. After another 90 minutes in the lounge my boarding time came, but the flight announcement...

    APEC Business Travel Card

    Hi All, I have my ABTC, with 'RUS' on the back.... and I want to go to Russia for *cough* 'Business'. My question is how hard do they grill you in Moscow on arrival about what business and with whom.

    Best seats economy A380?

    Problem with 35 DEF is that some pax use this as a path to the toilet. 35D is also very close to the loo, so if the flushing niose bothers you, maybe avoid. 35JK would be the best IMO. Upstairs is great, I always get wines from Business.... just ask when the CSO first comes to say hello, they...

    Family policy and complimentary lounge invites

    You will need 3 invites. My wife and 2 kids (11 & 8) needed 3 invites to get in to the BNE domestic lounge a month ago. I told them to try with 1 at first but it didn't work

    QF / 9W codeshare to India. Lounge access rules

    In singapore, you will access the QF lounge without a doubt. In Mumbai Jet will not be obliged to let you in....if there just happens to be a OW lounge you can go there, but you will have to look it up

    Good point, well made.

    Alan Joyce (AC)

    Why not? If he diminished your status or award seat availability, I can see why you might not like him. If you are talking abut increased costs..then why don't you start your own airline, as if Qantas is gouging you will make a killing!

    Alan Joyce (AC)

    If you cared to read my post...I did not claim that AJ started his own airline, but hey... and yes... I call a bunch of anonymous people who nark about someone else getting an award losers...and of course losers are allowed an opinion, so I don't see that I need to choose between the options...

    Alan Joyce (AC)

    So..... are you saying that if you were offered an AC you would refuse it? Sorry, obviously you would based on your post, so no need to ask you. Hang on... was that a condescending character assessment? Making a non-profitable airline highly profitable.... through fuel charges, selling FF...

    Alan Joyce (AC)

    Wow.... a whole bunch of losers bashing someone for being recognised (well, not all of you but most!). Get a life people, if you want recognition, earn it! If you think AJ isn't deserving, then go open/turn around your own airline and make stands about important issues. If you think the...

    Post Classic Upgrade Credit to other Programs

    Your booking class will not change, just the seat, assuming you get an upgrade at all. I have done points upgrades from Saver & Flex fares and also had op-ups from Sale and they always credit correctly. The Flying Brick's advice is perfect, if it can be achieved, only try change your FF...

    New Qantas Lounge Heathrow Terminal 3

    Bugger! I will be in Heathrow in early July and was counting on the QF lounge being open. I have the full entourage with me (partner + 2 kids) so I know I will get access to QF.... not so sure in CX or AA, and definitely not in BA. Having said that the AA & BA lounges are horrible and if it...
