    Qantas A220 seating charge - is this a scam?

    Am travelling to Canberra to Melbourne Thursday and just went in (with just over 48 hours to go) to see if I could get a better seat on board the A220. I noticed this is now what Qantas are charging another $30 from row 4-9, A&C - are they serious.? Am Plat if that is worth anything....

    Qatar denied extra capacity into Australia

    God the endless bleating and Qantas bashing has hit new highs. And Jayne Hrdlicka saying fares would drop by 40% is just absurd, a nonesense - and can't be based on any fact/research. As Joyce said yesterday we already have open skies with the US and with American carriers having unfetted...

    Qatar denied extra capacity into Australia

    There is plenty of choice and low-cost carriers flooding the market in Australia. There is not a lack of competition in Australia, and certainly people wouldn't be travelling with Qantas because they have to. Am heading to the US next month with SQ - choice is there - you just need to look...

    Qantas Domestic Lounges from 15/06/23 Guests Must be Travelling on Qantas/Partner Airline

    Thanks for the email address. Have just sent QF a note congratulating them on the move and encourage them to ignore the rent seekers out there who have been gaming the system. If your family and friends are so important to spend that time with you (in an airline lounge...) - buy a ticket for...

    Last day as VA Platinum

    Don't get too excited - Qantas are running a LOT of 737's to Perth these days. Have taken a lot of A330's off domestic to fly international...
