    Amex "I'm going to cancel my card" - bonus points given thread.

    100K points offered today to keep my Qantas Premium Card. Really low spend on the card (<1k/month). I was surprised -- he said it was 'because I've been a card holder since 2016'.

    Priority boarding on QF domestic - what is the story?

    Has hell frozen over - check BOM - my flight back to MEL tonight boarded from the premium line first. That is, only from the premium line. A glitch or a sign of things to come?

    Sheridan Bedding on Qantas First

    It looks much nicer than I expected. I do not really associated 'sheridan' as a brand with anything other than Myer clearance sales, so I thought it was an odd decision.

    MEL Dom. lounges refurb Completed October 2018

    How painful! Although, truthfully, I get a sense that this construction site QP is going to be so embarrassing no one would want to bring a guest in (or even really be there themselves.) Still, I hope it'll be all worth it...

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    I think this is very interesting. Despite some obvious narcissistic tendencies (which anyone who posts on a forum must possess), I much prefer talking about other people rather than myself.

    Qantas announces A380 refurbishments

    It's not like how to improve F is some dark mystic secret right? Bigger, more private seats? Better airport experience? Improved F&B? And yet they have deemed better seat cushions (not even seat reupholstering!) and bigger screens to be entirely sufficient for a $10,000 seat in 2017. Or, does...

    Qantas announces A380 refurbishments

    It feels incredibly half-hearted so far as F goes, as others have pointed out. Not so much a pardon but a stay. And will the fantastic A330/787 seat feel as impressive in 2019 onwards?

    MEL QC and J lounge getting much needed overhaul!

    Put it this way: it's the best coffee in the airport. It's no Market Lane, but it's a lot more drinkable than anything else on offer.

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    The cynical reading of this is that the program is working as it should: it potentially influences those who could conceivably make P1 to do so while acknowledging that if you can legitimately reach P1 it is more by necessity than choice and are therefore somewhat of a captive market. Or, in...

    I suspect I will never hear about getting a replacement for my damaged bag tag. :\

    Qantas Business Class meals & menus

    Meadowlea margarine and pre-packaged bread on a $1011 J flight? O tempora, o mores! And what on earth is one meant to do with the vinaigrette?! A digestif?

    I'm surprised anyone can still yet be disappointed in the AFR!

    Flying to NZ 5-9 Aug?

    If they get people from AFF, they'll end up with three hours of footage of the Flounge.

    Chasing the Qantas 787

    I'd very much like to a see a timelapse of the assembly. (Actually, before posting I thought I'd check on youtube and boy, it has delivered: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fop0ubhLq8Y Incredible! It should be set to some Copland or Glass).

    QF at least occasionally 'wastes' its A333s on domestic routes

    That is an incredible thought and I'd love to see it. It's quite fun to travel on the 717s for this seating config.

    Qantas Premier Money Card - on line application!!!!!!!

    To be fair, understanding people on the internet can be just as challenging.

    Why am I still SG...?

    I bet a lot of people get their hopes up when they say they've 'retained' status, only for it to drop back down a few days later.
