    Lounge Access Help Desk

    Thank you. I'll go with branching out to new airlines.'Exceptions may apply' is something none of us want to hear.

    Lounge Access Help Desk

    I usually fly Qantas but I'm branching out this year. If I fly non-business class internationally on another Oneworld airline, do I get access to their lounge by having Sapphire status?

    Flight on anniversary date

    If I fly on my anniversary date in Europe (the next Qantas year in Australia), will the SCs and points go to the new year or the old year?

    Driving to Sydney Airport

    I live and drive in Sydney, but I wouldn't drive to the airport. Even in a taxi it's horrible. As others have said, why not take a train from Canberra or Bomaderry? The airport train link is easy. It's scandalous that there is still no proper transport to Bermagui, though I suppose it helps to...

    Will you vaccinate with Conoravirus vaccine when one is available?

    Your points are well made, but the point of vaccines is to protect others around you, and some of them may be vulnerable.

    Angry about proposed travel ban exemption for footballers

    I agree. The worst exemption to make. There is no benefit to society. It makes no sense, except that someone (not most) will make some money from it.

    Reducing the passenger density

    My husband and I used to buy an extra seat in a row of three. The extra seat was surprisingly cheap sometimes because it had no taxes. Reducing the passenger density may be not as expensive as we might think, especially with the current fuel price. The airport taxes could go up if we all have...

    Qantas Revenue booking cancellations (under covid19)

    I'm concerned that if there is too much pressure on Qantas to refund our bookings, there may be no Qantas. International travel may change after this epidemic. Possibly it won't be as cheap and easy as in the recent past. What if Qantas is re-nationalised? I'm just relieved that I can keep my...

    Qantas Syd to US fare anomaly

    I am starting to book a round trip to Victoria in Canada, but with a stopover in San Francisco. The business fare direct to Victoria (3 flights) is nearly $2000 less, or about 70%, of same flight to San Francisco by itself. I can't understand why a fraction of a trip should cost so much more...

    Does the QF designation depend on the booking agency?

    Thanks. I think I know what to do now.

    Does the QF designation depend on the booking agency?

    Thank you. I'm still not quite sure. Are you saying that to get the status credits, I need to see the QF number? That is, the Expedia booking (with EK numbers only) would not offer the credits? In this version, the trip.com and Qantas options both have all AF numbers, but the prices are...

    Does the QF designation depend on the booking agency?

    I am going to Rome and would like to book SYD-FCO-SYD, which is on Emirates through Dubai. If I book through Qantas, the four sectors have QF numbers (so credits should apply), but if I book through another agency with cheaper fares, the European sectors do not have QF numbers. Does this mean...

    Upgrades on partner airlines

    Thanks. When I asked this question, I was wondering whether there was a points trading system within Oneworld. That is, would BA redeem my upgrade points at Qantas. But yes, what you say all makes sense (especially the arrogance bit).

    Upgrades on partner airlines

    Thank you. I was wondering if Qantas status was any use on other airlines. My Qantas upgrades have always used points. I haven't had a free one for 20 years!

    Upgrades on partner airlines

    I usually travel Qantas and have been fairly lucky with upgrades from W to J on long international flights. In the past I've travelled on BA and not got an upgrade. That was before I had this forum to ask :) Now I'm thinking of booking SYD-LON and back on BA. What are my chances of getting...

    Thank you both. That's what I wanted to know.

    Qantas tier status on partner airlines

    I'm about to book a big trip on BA. Does anyone know if Qantas will give me my gold status credit bonus? I can't get on to chat.

    What's your Qantas Chat experience?

    Chat has been bugging me when I don't need it, but unavailable when I ask for it.
