    What happened to the Amex Qantas card with the free flight?

    Yes you do get a free flight with the AMEX Ultimate Card but there is a catch and that is that you need to have purchased a Qantas product (flight or other) before you qualify for the "free" flight. And by the way, its not just a one off but very year or else no freebie flight! At $450 a...

    Food in Premium Economy

    Can you an award flight for more than one person at once?

    Hey babysun....welcome to AFF! In short...my experience with Qantas on line award booking is that if you select more than two and you are looking for business class seats you have very little chance of getting anything. However, one or two in economy should be OK as long as you book well in...

Perhaps they thought that since the flight was departing and...

    QF Amex Signup Offers

    Got the same offer in October 2007 which had an end date of December 2007.

    "Alternative Use" for In-Flight Amenity Kits etc

    Interesting that you should ask this question. I was recently on Ebay and found that a few enterprizing Q travellers were attempting to sell their business class amenity kits on line and surprizingly there were actual bidders vying for them. Mind you the price people were willing to pay was...

    Delayed by industrial action - sign of things to come?

    Probably a bit early to link the industrial action to the new labour government but something interesting happened in my industry yesterday (the construction industry- large commercial that is). We had our first "concrete pour" ban on the new melbourne ferris wheel project and this hasn't...
