Emirates lounge access for Qantas frequent flyers [2024]
Jan 17, 2024, 01:29 PMEmirates are notoriously bad in Australian airports of letting you into the lounge if you are not flying an Emirates flight.

Qantas to spend $80m on more frequent flyer seats, upgraded meals
Sep 25, 2023, 12:38 PMWhen are they planning to actually add more award seats? The last time they did a big release, their website crashed - Australians who relied on the Qantas website got stuffed, people living overseas used partner airlines to book everything out, and Qantas execs walked away patting themselv...

Connecting from Finnair to Cathay Pacific - Seperate tickets
Mar 07, 2023, 10:21 AMYou can try to call their call centres and ask. Baring that, you'll have to ask at the check-in counter if they will interline your bags.
