    BKK international lounge options

    Does anyone have recent experience with *A lounges at BKK? From what I can tell, the SQ and BR lounges remain closed, leaving an assortment of TG lounges and TK. I presume the various massage offerings and spa facilities are still unavailable? Have a long layover between international TG...

    Trying to find 787/Dreamliner routes

    Scored 2 x business class reward seats on QF645 SYD-PER for a Sunday morning in October. Even better, booked during the recent 30% off classic rewards promotion. Now to hold our breath for the next 4 months and see whether QF swap it out for a 737.

    30% off reward seats Qantas/JQ Y and J anywhere in AU and NZ JUL- DEC 21

    Booked BNE-SYD-PER and PER-MEL-BNE in J for Mrs DMar and I in October. Couldn't find many widebody options direct from BNE, so happily paid the extra points to get SYD-PER on a 789 and PER-MEL on an A330. 159,600 points and $297 in taxes/fees. All refundable if anything goes pear-shaped or...

    The definitive thread on Qantas IT gripes.

    Happened to me last year. During last year's DSC offer, I booked BNE-MEL-ASP-AYQ and return for April 2019. MEL-ASP and ASP-MEL were subsequently cancelled, and Mrs DMar & I flew via SYD instead. Eventually called up and applied for ORC (moreso for Mrs DMar than I), by which time my membership...

    Loyalty bonus question

    How quickly is the loyalty bonus triggered upon reaching 500 SC? Based on current balance and forward bookings, I will go from 470 to 550 SC with a SYD-NAN flight (QF flight number, FJ metal) on April 27. Ideally I would use the loyalty bonus to retain SG before my April 30 anniversary date...

    Qantas A380 refurbishment news and updates.

    I'm in a similar situation on QF127 on 03/01. Noticed my option to reserve Y seating in the upstairs mini-cabin has disappeared. Also hoping my points upgrade request comes through, even though only SG.

    This would be due to Typhoon Hagibis, I presume.

    Compensation for no IFE in J Syd to HNL

    Last year flew SYD-DXB-FCO on EK metal under a QF flight number with no IFE (which also took out the USB charger and reading light) for the entire SYD-DXB leg. 14 hours went by very slowly! Provided feedback via email to EK customer service, who handballed the complaint to QF, who in turn...

    Help deciphering a QFF double SC offer

    I'm in a similar situation trying to decipher a 50% bonus SC email from QFF. The email is titled "Fly to Bali, get 50% more Status Credits", presumably targeted since I spent time over the weekend browsing flights to DPS. Yet the T&Cs make no mention of DPS specifically, nor does it specify...
