Qantas plans overhaul of frequent flyer scheme

Jun 18, 2019, 12:30 PM

As an individual who is holding out for the next (potential) DSC promotion to book a tranche of flights for Q4 and Q1, the thought of upcoming enhancements has me somewhat concerned.
Try these British gins for your cocktail cabinet

Nov 30, 2018, 08:12 AM

If anyone is in Edinburgh, I’d suggest heading to The Gin Company on North Bridge for an amazing retail selection of craft gins from across Scotland. Could you do look to do article on Australian craft gins? there are so many, just in South a Australia standouts include (imo) The green ant...
Book Qatar Airways Qsuites with Qantas Points

Nov 15, 2018, 10:50 AM

Can anyone clarify Qatar's current lounge access policy for those traveling on award seats? I Know that Qatar had made a few changes in the last 12 months so I'm unclear of if these tickets would grant flagship access, or i'd be forced to fall back on my OW status.
Review: The Emirates Lounge, Singapore Changi Airport

Oct 24, 2018, 12:15 PM

On reflection I can see how my last line could be construed as being critical in relation to the accuracy of the review. That certainly was not my intent so I apologise for that. I was attempting to imply I would have loved the lounge to be closer to your photos in terms of number of PAX ad gener...
Review: The Emirates Lounge, Singapore Changi Airport

Oct 24, 2018, 10:29 AM

I visited this lounge in June, mid-week before our flight EK355. The lounge was virtually standing room only and absolutely heaving with people. It did not make for a pleasant experience. This was compared to the QF lounge which, whilst busy, was serene by comparison. I was disappointed that I ha...

Qantas first class lounge entry question

Nov 26, 2019, 08:33 AM

If you are flying on Qantas domestic I've found that SC's can sometimes be credited surprisingly quickly. Does your itinerary involve you arriving in Sydney and immediately transferring to T1 to fly onward internationally? If they credit the SC's quickly enough your new status should show within ...
What is your experience using Q Tags in terms of luggage delivery, yay or nay?

Nov 14, 2019, 07:51 PM

I tend to fly from Adelaide a fair bit and I am convinced that the status on the Q-tags are ignored by the handlers as my bags tend to appear at random when I reach my destination. However when traveling from other airports I find my bags are generally on the carousel fairly early. So I do believ...
Getting QF codeshare on Cathay Pacific operated flights.

Oct 20, 2019, 07:58 PM

Thanks for the information everyone, very useful things to consider, especially re the HK Mumbai leg being credited the same. We're not heaps time poor and the pitiful SC earn means that unlikely to go on MH (but i'll give it a look anyway just in case the pricing is much better)
Getting QF codeshare on Cathay Pacific operated flights.

Oct 17, 2019, 02:14 PM

Hi All. Needing to travel to India from Sydney and I'm trying to maximise QF SC's if possible as I'm still very much part of the QF FF machine! Going via Hong kong is appealing as Qantas offers codeshares to Mumbai and Delhi on Cathay Pacific operated flights metal. When I've been looking at book...
