    The new strategies you need to find reward availability in 2025

    I wonder if the current uptake of classic plus is really a sign of enthusiasm for the product? As someone who needs to book a fair way in advance, the new classic release strategy of course meant I had no chance of finding a redemption.

    Op-ed: Airlines Must Take the Seatbelt Sign More Seriously

    Qantas petition to open state borders

    I am not usually a poster on any forums, but feel strongly about this one. Will be unsubscribing from Qantas emails, and any remaining tenuous emotional attachment to QF is dead. I am a Perth resident, have read the findings in the Federal Court about justification for closures, and...
