So, I thought I'd burn some points and upgrade to business class on my recent trip from Melbourne to Perth and to say I was dissapointed with the meal given would be an understatement..... I selected the beef terriyaki as an entree which consisted of 2 small slithers of beef and some...

Hi, Just wondering what experiences people have had flying in Upper Deck Economy on the A380. One of the things I used to like about these seats was the ability to use the stairs at the rear to stretch my legs and go down to the Self Serve snack/drinks bars, grabbing stuff without having to...

Anyone know? I tried calling them and the woman just said 'you can't tell'. Can't be true, surely?

This seems to be a targeted offer of 32 000 points off Economy awards to London...did anyone else get this email? Is it just for Plat One? Here is the body: Dear xx_XX Up to 32,000 Qantas Points off Classic Award flights to London - 5 days to book. Not everyone has access to this offer...

Hi all it's been many years since I have flown economy, and was you wondering what you all feel is the best economy class experience ( world wide ) and why. You never know I may end up in the economy section when I'm a poor pensioner, the way the government keep taxing me :) Wayne The...

I was checking my upcoming bookings and noticed that my up coming flight to Singapore from Sydney was cancelled QF5. Instead domestic economy to BNE and PE to SIN on QF52. No calls or notification, so I called CS. Was informed that Qantas was taking the 747 off that route and replacing it with...

Hey guys, a few quick fired questions and thought this could be useful to others. 1. I get seat selection of available seat right? - Yep 2. I get to go into any lounge, even flag ship at e.g. LAX ? - Yep 3. Do I get any free luggage allowance? - i am not sure. And if not, do i just purchase at...

Hi folks. I know the answer to this question is probably on this forum a thousand times but I have searched quite thoroughly and I cannot find any information that syncs exactly with the seat map being offered to me by Qantas when I go in to select a seat. I am flying from Sydney to LAX on...

Can anyone help with availability at a good price? I am looking for flight BNE LHR 29th/30th June - July 9th/10th.

Hi I'm booking a Perth to Sydney, return, economy ticket with Virgin Australia and I'm wondering whether it would be better to go with the 332 (A330-200) flight, which is at a slightly less convenient time, or the 73H (737-800?) flight, which is at a slightly more convenient time? What is the...

Hi guys, New here but have been reading for some time - there is some very useful info on here ! Thanks all for contributing. Now my question, and I've been noticing this recently, on a variety of international flights eg. MEL-LAX, MEL-SIN, MEL-HKG, etc. Usually Sale or Red E-deal flights are...

So, I am a first time poster and have no idea where this post rightfully belongs. I am visiting a friend in HK in July and flying CX, because my friend works for them, he is flying to Aus on my return, and I get QF points. Trawling through the QF T&C, it says that you earn 1 point per mile on...

Hello! I need to travel to Taipei in May, and I would like to take advantage of the J sale fares that just came out. I'm thinking that if I fly MEL-HKG-TPE, I could fly in J for the MEL-HKG segment at least. Now, my work will only pay for Y, and I'd like to be able to upgrade it myself by...

Hi I recently booked a return flight to the US. My return leg was on QF12. When selecting my seat, I noticed I could choose upper deck. So I did. I selected a seat and it was accepted. I didn't think much of it at the time because I heard QF was getting rid of first class on some flight so just...
