The title says it all - does anyone know why QF1 isn't operating this coming Sunday?

I had a 8hr 10 min stopover in DXB two weeks ago (MEL-DXB-LOS) but when the ticket was issued, the TA put the QF and EK flights through as separate tickets which meant I was not eligible for Dubai Connect - grrr. I wont let that happen again. 8 hrs of poor sleep in the EK FLounge is not...

I am looking to book MEL-DXB-DAR (Dar Es Salaam, TZ) and it looks like while there is a EK 725/726 direct flight combo between DXB and DAR, there doesnt appear to be QF flight numbers. The closest I can get in NBO on QF numbers, then have to take KQ (PW) to DAR from NBO. A quick search reveals...

Hi All, I recieved an invitation to meet with Lesley Grant (Qantas Customer Loyalty CEO) for coughtails on 13Mar13. The invitation reads: I know Lesley is also hosting the event in Sydney the day prior for which Red Roo has offered 20 tickets to, so I am wondering if she if doing a tour of...

I am heading to NRT in a couple of weeks and with no availability (as per normal this time of year) on QF for the return leg (from NRT, SIN or HKG) but I can get on Y (B actually) on MH via KUL. Since it will be post 1Feb, MH will be part of OW by then, so I am confident I will earn miles &...

I got this today from International SOS (who my company partners with to provide travel advisories): Ukraine: Moscow's Sheremetyevo International Airport to stop handling Aerosvit flights from 10 December Personnel scheduled to fly with Aerosvit to Moscow's Sheremetyevo International Airport...

I saw this editorial in today's "The Philippine Star" English language newspaper: The editorial is referring to the latest survey results on sleepinginairports.net web site.

Hi Guys & Gals, I joined A3's program just before my trip to JNB back on 16Aug12, the miles were credited on 21Aug12 and the A3 web site showed me as 'Blue' the following day. I have not yet received anything from A3 in the mail. No welcome letter, no Blue card, nothing. I was wonmering how...

Hi all, I am flying on sq mel-sin-mnl on 14Oct12 and back on 19Oct12 in Y (H bucket)- flying with my relatively new A3 membership to move me from Blue (*A silver) to Gold (*A Gold). When I try to do my seat allocation on the SQ web site, for the MEL-SIN and SIN-MEL segments, I only see middle...

Hi All, I may have a trip to GYD (Baku Azebaijan) coming up and I was wondering if anyone else had been there before, if so, where did you get your visa? (there is no consulate in Australia - the closest are in Indonesia and Malaysia, but that's not exactly on a stopover on the way there - when...

I flew on QF30 HKG-MEL yesterday which was very lightly loaded. As a result, the on board CSM came to visit me a few times during the flight to check on me (I was in Y). In my experience, having the CSM even saying hello to me has been hit and miss - mostly miss. I guess I am too far from the...

Hi guys, I haven't ever needed to fly with JQ in the past, but tomorrow, I have a JQ flight CGK-PER (using the QF number) and I have some questions: Will I be able to check in online and select my seat 24 hrs out? Will I be able to take two carry-on bags with me? (I don't check any luggage...

I am booked on QF9 tomorrow (only as far as SIN), but since booking a bit over a week ago, it has not let me select seats for QF9 and now when I try OLCI, it is listing the flight as QF8009 rather than QF9 and says that I can't check in. I thought flight numbers like that were usually used...

My cousin who has a bit to do with the Airways Museum at Essendon Airport sent me this link on youtube - some of the shot were filmed at the museum. YouTube - In My Aeroplane Nice video with some good footage of a TigerMoth over Melbourne.

I am booked in Y on QF128 on 21AUG09 - I've been allocated 52A by the seat allocation system - when I try to change it, it looks like there are no economy seats forward of 52 on the left, forward of 51 in the middle and 53 on the right (Check the image below). I called QFF contact centre - they...

Saw this today - looks like the LionAir tie up and services to Polynesia are no more.... First MacAir, now SkyAirWorld. Another one bites the dust...

I was going to give it a try a few weeks ago, but had to delay my SIN-MEL flight by a day and missed out on the A380 . Has anyone else tried it? What are the speeds like? What are the restrictions they have in place (what sites can you get to and what cant you get to)? Does it support VPNs yet?

I was transfering from my SIN-SYD flight to the domestic termainal at SYD this evening and I noticed a nice and shiny 744 in the hanger opposite T2 gate 2 which what I thought (I only got a quick glimpse) was a big "OneWorld" along the fuslage of the aircraft - much like the *A carriers have a...
