    Lounge Access Help Desk

    T5 I presume? Was impressed with the food options last time through there. Had some real good dishes

    First time on Qatar - my thoughts

    Our most recent flights with them we had a slight issue on one leg which they rectified and even went over and above so can’t fault them. First flight was AUH-DOH in F on the MAX8 and we got bumped at checkin due apparently to some VIP’s getting priority. A little disappointed but on a 45...

    Qantas A380 reliability issues creeping up again?

    Competition is a much needed tool to stop QF gouging its customers. Guess we will have to see but QF always over promises and under delivers so I’m expecting the new aircraft and seats to offer a subpar experience with woeful meals just like they do currently

    Rex launches its own frequent flyer program (in October 2023)

    I would give them a go but there frequency is just poor. We travel to Melbourne most weeks for the footy and only 2 daily’s at 0600 or 1730, just useless time slots for me. Can jump on one of the well timed QF or VA flights

    Qantas A380 reliability issues creeping up again?

    QF could return to being a very good airline if they put the right people in charge

    Qantas A380 reliability issues creeping up again?

    To get out of their current mess they should clean out the joint first. No good having all the current decisions makers as AJ clones and mates

    I think it’s very courageous of Vanessa to post on this forum 🤣

    Qantas adds Brisbane-Manila but suspends Sydney-Shanghai flights

    It’s not so much a bad name now but there are a stack of people I know who didn’t realise they were Taiwanese based. If you mentioned CI to the average punter I’d be willing to bet many think it’s Chinese

    Qantas adds Brisbane-Manila but suspends Sydney-Shanghai flights

    Both have great J products IMO but I’m still amazed at how many people think CI is a Chinese airline and wouldn’t think of booking with them

    BA 0016 seat configuration

    My preference is rear facing seats and love airlines that have them

    Article: Will Velocity Reinstate Redemptions on Its Chinese Partner Airlines?

    Flights to China are really well priced currently. More options to spend points is never bad though

    How does Accor treat you as an Elite guest?

    Mantra Northbourne is better IMO but earns at a terrible rate which really doesn’t bother me much these days. I also reckon the Sebel Civic isn’t too bad either in that part of town. Unfortunately Canberra is really bereft of quality Accor properties

    Qantas adds Brisbane-Manila but suspends Sydney-Shanghai flights

    Not sure it’s manipulation when they offer a better network and a far better service than what QF does. As to the China issue whenever I’ve looked at prices QF has always been more expensive and quite considerably. Whilst I agree QF has a better overall product than MU I don’t think it’s worth...

    Qantas adds Brisbane-Manila but suspends Sydney-Shanghai flights

    I was looking at a short trip recently and one way QF wanted over $4k in J. MU was about $2.5k. Not a huge fan of CZ but they were doing 1 stops for $1300

    Qantas adds Brisbane-Manila but suspends Sydney-Shanghai flights

    I’m not even sure KUL would work. I don’t think I’ve been on too many MH flights to/from Australia that are at capacity and it doesn’t strike me as a route that would have much meat on the bone.

    Qantas adds Brisbane-Manila but suspends Sydney-Shanghai flights

    Be interesting to see if it would work. SQ is pretty established here and has built up some good will but if the price is right who knows. MH might be the one that suffers

    The House - Melbourne International

    I had the opposite on last visit but perhaps it was the SQ lounge dragon being a bit abrasive that dulled my view of it. Lounge was packed and food wasn’t great so we left and went to the NZ lounge which was almost empty, had friendly staff and food and beverages were excellent IMO

    Rex launches its own frequent flyer program (in October 2023)

    Rex need to get a stack more jets before they worry about International partners IMO. They simply don’t cover enough routes or have enough frequency on the routes they do have to be a consideration for me
