The Qantas Newbie Questions Thread

Hi this might be a really stupid question but - if I have an existing award booking (Tokyo to SG to Syd) booked - but I wanted to rebook to Syd - Tokyo, would I need the full amount of points for the rebooking before the points from the old booking comes back?

In Cathay if you amend you need the full amount
No it’s considered a change. So you’ll pay the change fee, and any points difference will be credited/deducted.
 
Hi! I’m new here. Was lead to this forum while trying to find out if my 3 year old needs a lounge pass? We have two complementary lounge passes, I’m travelling with my husband, and two kids (1 and 3). I’ve previously brought my daughter and husband in with me to the lounge when she was six mths old, with only two passes. We have a long transit in Brisbane so I am trying to think whether it would be best to link the lounge passes to myself with infant and my toddler, or link to my husband instead of my toddler?

You could find the answer very easily on the Qantas website under lounge section.... Or read various threads here

I’ve found various conflicting answers on the website and the threads, hence the question. Appreciate your time in replying though. Thank you. I’ll dig deeper.
