Qantas has unveiled the new PE seats for the A350… I think they look pretty good...

I think a 747 drink cart will look good in my loungeroom!! but can't see myself splurging on a skybed seat though... https://executivetraveller.com/news/qantas-boeing-747-memorabilia-auction

So it looks like QF will give the 747 a send off rather than letting it just vanish into the night.. Fingers crossed I can get a seat.. lockdowns permitting...

changes to Virgin points redemptions. Simpler and fairer? just saw this about some "tweaks" to the VA earning tables.. and a drop in inactive accounts to 24 months.. bit of a mixed bag of changes.. Virgin Australia tweaks Velocity Frequent Flyer points scheme - Australian Business Traveller

Just saw this on AustBT. Changes to the points earn and looks like an increase of SC earn. Of course the devil is in the detail.. Qantas frequent flyer points Oneworld Emirates partner airlines - Australian Business Traveller

I was looking through some fares and i noticed this in the fine print: Points and Status credits may be earned on this fare. Flight Upgrade Awards are not eligible on this fare. This fare is classed as Discount Economy when Status credits are earned. Points and Status credits are not accrued...

Having already re-qual'd PG on Qantas i thought over the last month or so i would direct my flying to Virgin to do my re-qual there. I'm beginning to think i may be wasting my time after tonight.. I've had to put up with a useless website (no one can tell me that the website is good). I can't...

A friend of mine recently gave me an old printed Qantas timetable, from 1959! It's an amazing bit of history to look at and as you are the only people who would appreciate something like this I thought I would post it here. It's in pretty good condition for being over 50 years old! Here is the...

I'm in the process of scanning all my Grandpa's 35mm Slides as he was a keen photographer. So it's been great seeing some old family photos etc. anyway I'm only part of the way through when I saw some plane photos (my grandparents never flew). And although it's only outside shots, i thought I...

Note sure if this was already posted, but found this article this morning: Cookies must be enabled | Herald Sun I'm surprised they weren't terminated.

OK i thought i would post this as I had a bad start to today, flying MEL-SYD, this week on QF. My bad start was my trusty Antler bag, which has done well over 200 flights with me, broke. The extension bar for the handle sheared through when i dropped it. Needless to say i was upset as i can't...

I thought I would share this as GHA aren't featured on here that much but do have some good perks. Firstly I am a GHA black thanks to the Sebel in Sydney (our work hotel) being a member, well until the end of the year as it is now A|Club. Unlike most programs where you earn points for stays...

Eyed this off just before: Victoria eyes Red Bull Air Race over Albert Park Cookies must be enabled | Herald Sun Will be interesting to see if they actually get it in Melbourne. It was announced a while back that the race would take 2013 off as well. Mind you Perth was a wonderful venue for...

Many of you will remember that I was fortunate enough to work in Beijing for the Olympics (http://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/trip-reports-and-trip-photos/beijing-olympics-2008-a-14250.html), then Delhi for the Commonwealth Games. I was lucky enough to get to go to London this...

Has anyone been through HKG lately? I remember a couple of years ago we had to do an additional screening at the gate. Does anyone know if this still do this on QF flights? Debating on whether to head down and buy some duty free before boarding in a couple of hours! Thanks!

Like many I transferred some points from Amex Ascent premium to Qantas back in March for the chance to win 200,000 QF points. Well I received an unexpected call from Amex this morning (my first thought was they are querying my account or something). but they said that i was selected as a winner...

Well i finally got to use the Westfield Valet parking offer at Doncaster today - simple call to the Concierge to arrange. So was happy with that. However the operator did inform me that from next month it won't be free anymore, it will be $7.50 (normal price is $10)

Working here at the GP and i have to say the QF flyover was fantastic! The crew flew over several times and it included some nice turns around the track. Perhaps they saw the F/A-18 demo and wanted to upstage them a bit??? ;):D Here are some pics I captured on my iPhone as the Lumix was in the...

couldn't see this anywhere on here but this was on AusBT: The best seats on a Boeing 777? Try the upstairs bunk beds! - Flights | hotels | frequent flyer | business class - Australian Business Traveller now that is one cool crew rest area!
