Maybe this is the right or wrong thread to post this in, but I just flew this afternoon MEL-ADL on B737-800 VH-VXD (Tenterfield). The legroom in Row 4 is HUGE- so much so that the cabin crew were talking about it as well. It has been recently reconfigured (apparently dropping a row out down the...

Thx …. never knew that!! Opened for JQ passengers from 45 minutes before departure of the first JQ flight until boarding call for the last JQ flight of the day. Bet current JQ passengers who encounter its closure because it’s now timed around QF flights would be disappointed if they knew that.

I used to fly JQ quite often out of OOL when 1/ I was going to the Gold Coast a bit more and 2/ the JQ MAX bundle gave you 30 status credits between OOL and MEL. No need to worry about having to plan around DSC offers in those days. It was a nuisance if I had a JQ flight which didn’t coincide...

And the freepoints website so far has no card offer from Woolworths starting tomorrow. Hard to believe there’s no catalogue for the day before Christmas, and the days after. Something odd afoot?

Thx for the explanation

“… some of JQs Business Max add-ons can be as low as $1.60/SC with other benefits as well.” How can JQ SCs be earned like that?

I’m departing OOL on 17 November. Nice timing for the reopening

Recent special OOL-MEL-AKL return for $1495 in business yielding 560 SCs per trip (based on DSC). Four status runs for $5980 = 2240 SCs leaving another 1360 to be obtained from other trips. Easy to get if you go to Europe on $ once on DSCs in business class.

First possible attempt at fraud. I’ve just received an invoice emailed to me for $3650 from Coastal Contracting in Frankford Delaware. And I guess that’s US dollars too They must think we’re stupid that we’d just pay an invoice …. “Oh yeah, I must have got them to do something on my house in...

Gotta like the AKL QANTAS lounge refurbishment agreement between QF and EK. Flying JQ out of AKL tonight and bang - into the EK lounge.

Yes. In 2022 I was scheduled to fly on a QR ticket VCE-MAD on IB (economy), then QR (business) from MAD-DOH-SIN, Prior to the flight QR changed my first leg to VCE-FRA on Lufthansa, and the subsequent flights to FRA-DOH-SIN. The Lufthansa flight was delayed, I missed the QR flight out of...

Are you sure you’ve got the details right? If you’ve got Points Club but she doesn’t, it should have been you that got status credits on the QF points flight and she shouldn’t have. But you said it was the other way around in the OP

Just the 3% discount, as well as your normal credit card earn

I think this relates to a VA flight - there’s a giveaway sentence: “Is this FA blocking the aisle for disembarking J pax a new thing for the last 2 months (I stopped booking most flights with VA since the new status credit calculation) or did i just witness something weird?”

I’m usually in Row 4. I always use the rear toilets. I have absolutely no expectation of anything else, and no sense of entitlement that, even as P1, I should be able to use the J loo. On one occasion the CSM came back mid flight to say hi (thx for your loyalty etc) and said if I needed to use...

Excellent. Thx very much

I’m planning on an SYD-HKT transiting through SIN (QF to SIN then JQ/3K to HKT) on a QF ticket. Do the airlines transfer your luggage, or do you have to collect it and check it in again? And the return?

They don’t seem to. I bought multiple gift cards two days in a row this week and got no new fuel vouchers.

I set about to build points and SCs throughout COVID, figuring that COVID would finish and I’d have points and status to help me use them.

It is actually something I apply my mind to - multiple flights within Australia either side of a couple of other flights with BA and AA.
