Qantas App Enhancements

[Be.au]

Couldn't find another general thread for the Qantas app, but there's been some new features rolled out recently.

As shared on Linkedin:

There's something satisfying about reaching the point in a product's lifecycle where it moves beyond building the foundations and into a cycle of enhancement. That's where the Qantas App team is today: listening to customer feedback, identifying opportunities, and shipping improvements that make travel enjoyable and easy.

Here are a few that have just gone live:
1) Your linked 'Past Trips' can now be accessed under the Trips tab. Access 12 months of past flights. Full roll out to all users by end of today. If you don’t see it on your Trips tab yet, you will very soon. Lots more to come in this space.

2) First Class lounge menus can now be browsed in advance of your flight. Available on eligible flight bookings in the Flight Details section.

(mentioned yesterday at Current Qantas First Lounge Menu (SYD/MEL) and relevant topics)

3) Find out if your aircraft is wearing a special livery, including our Flying Art Series, Centenary, Pride, and oneworld liveries now all included under Onboard Experience.

Credit where it’s due, the Qantas app has come a long way.

While the US carriers started the digital journey earlier and often have more features, it was jarring going back to the Delta app and having to log in every time. Even with Face ID that’s pointless friction.

Now do a comparison to the BA app

Saw this post on LinkedIn too. Nearly commented on the post about per-hkg showing as a qf flight being funny seeing as they don’t fly it, and haven’t flown it for far longer than the last 1 year, which is what shows up in the new “past trips” section
