    Article: Can LATAM Pass Members Access Qantas Lounges?

    Thank you! That’s super helpful. It also means I sat in the terminal in Santiago and Bogotá last year unnecessarily.

    Article: Can LATAM Pass Members Access Qantas Lounges?

    The Qantas website implies that LATAM lounge access in South America is only available on 'QF codeshare services operated by LATAM'. Are you able to confirm whether those Qantas Gold/Platinum travelling on LA flight numbers are allowed entry?

    Qantas Call Centre just told me Air Tahiti Nui is not a Qantas partner and Reward Flights cannot be booked

    Thanks for the helpful replies. I suspect this issue is related to the currency, as the Classic Flight Reward is priced in pacific francs. Surely there would be a way for Call Centre staff to convert to Australian dollars and generate a ticket? Interesting that they can generate revenue tickets...

    Qantas Call Centre just told me Air Tahiti Nui is not a Qantas partner and Reward Flights cannot be booked

    I am getting so frustrated with Qantas that I don't know why I bother anymore. We're going to Bora Bora and wanted to fly Business across and Economy home. I booked two Business flights across with cash, but saw there were Classic Flight Rewards on Economy on the way home. I just went to book...

    Qantas improves conditions on vouchers

    It seems like they’re no longer waiving change fees: We were supposed to fly in March 2020 but had to cancel. We accepted the flight credit by text after initially asking for cash refund. We switched to the credit since they said they would waive change fees. I hope they still honour this...

    Hotel Promotions Hilton Honors Promotions

    Thanks SponsorSFC. All sorted. Out of interest, how long did it take for your Amex credit ($80) to be applied?

    Hotel Promotions Hilton Honors Promotions

    I actually just booked the Conrad Singapore too (4 days ago) for a stay later this year, and have been waiting for them to charge my card. SponsorSFC, did you just call/email and ask them to manually process the payment? I'm worried they won't bill the card before the July cutoff for the Amex...

    No QFF SCs on BNE-CHC?? (130 status run target)

    Speaking of Qantas and Christchurch bugs, the Qantas app still doesn't show a nice picture of Christchurch for a trip. Oddly it works on the website but not the app. It would be great if Qantas could fix this.

    Is International Virgin Reward availability now worse that QANTAS?

    This will occur if you don't have enough points for the booking.

    QF business not what it used to be?

    I'm in Brisbane and looking at travelling to USA/Mexico next summer (June/July 2018). I'm hoping to score J reward seats there and back. I was looking at the 747 service for its convenience however I'm thinking the new 787 overnight flight from Melbourne might be a better choice. It will...

    A350 seats to avoid 40C & 40H

    I too have this question! I'm booked to fly in 40H on the Cathay A350 and am 6 foot 1 so was hoping the extra leg room would be good in this seat?

    The Qantas bubble

    Yeah, I noticed this too and re-read the sentence multiple times to make sense of it. With at least four A380 'long haul' carriers (not including SQ) it's a bit misleading.

    Velocity Platinum Bad deal KrisFlyer Gold lounge

    I agree; it's really disappointing. The Singapore Airlines partnership leaves a lot to be desired. Another part of the equation that irks me is the lack of lounge access in airports that don't have a proper Singapore Airlines lounge. With Etihad for example, you can use their partner lounges...

    Best Y seats to Europe

    Glad to hear you got it sorted. We've booked on the Cathay Pacific A350 from Brisbane to Paris in August. I'm excited to try the new aircraft and hoping that the 32 inches of pitch makes the Economy trip somewhat comfortable. The fares we've got don't offer seat selection so hopefully we end up...

    Bali direct full service from Brisbabe - Malindo Air

    Wouldn't this make you question the company's pilot recruitment and training processes?

    Is It Worth Chasing Qantas Gold Status ?

    As a lowly Qantas Bronze member, I too am interested to know how much difference there is in award availability between Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum members. I assume this only applies to award tickets on QF metal. In terms of your status plans, I would think there's not a whole lot of...

    Jetstar Platinum MasterCard 40k points $69 first year annual fee

    I just received an email and SMS saying my card application had been approved. I've had this card for over 6 months now so must be a mistake!

    100,000 qantas or altitude points bonus with new westpac black card

    Thanks for the update bcworld. Is there anyway of checking on the Westpac site how many points have been awarded during the month before the statement is released? Or points only show on the statement? I am in the same boat waiting for the second batch of 50k points to be allocated.

    Qantas to offer Netflix, Spotify and Foxtel via Wi-Fi

    This is really cool! Since they (Australian carriers) are late to the Wi-Fi game, it's great to see Qantas actually taking it a step further and adding some innovation with good content deals. This extended access would be great for finishing off a show you're halfway through on a shorter...
