  • Australian Gov't advises against almost all overseas travel

    Mar 25, 2020, 09:52 PM

    Coronavirus is at least an order of magnitude worse than the flu. Someone under 50 has about a 1 in 500 chance of dying from it. In Italy their death toll is about 10% of the confirmed cases. Initially the Government sent false signals that this is like a bad flu. Its not. It is 10 to 100 times w...

  • Five ways to build travel-proof relationships

    Nov 29, 2019, 04:16 PM

    Or simply just don't travel as much. Consider a career change or move in the organisation so you are home more often. None of the suggestions in the article are going to make up for absent parenting or be a substitute for a partner who is present.

  • Qantas looks to add new Gold, Platinum frequent flyer perks

    Nov 28, 2019, 01:13 PM

    How about just reducing the number of sc to reach lifetime platinum. Double that for LTG would seem reasonable. Or perhaps offering LTG upgraded lounge access 2 time per year.

  • EarthBay is a 'private jet' on commercial flights

    Why not just put in more standard seating and forget about windows and toilets. That would accord with current airline trends of more people in less space with fewer amenities and better reflect the real future not the marketing hype.

  • Qantas trials preferred seating

    Jul 10, 2019, 04:43 PM

    Some potential issues. 1. Pushy passengers behind you that don’t respect the deboarding pecking order. 2. You pay for a priority window seat but the person in the middle or isle seat is not in the same rush you are. They’re happy to be last off. When you start asking people to pay f...

  • Business class sleeping for a 2 year old?

    Oct 30, 2019, 05:21 PM

    As suggested use the seatbelt and some pillows to reduce the risk. Also for the enlightenment of some. Over 2's do indeed pay for their seats, are not little adults and therefore don't behave like adults. Finally parents cannot fully control all behaviours eg crying so please no more comments abo...

    Getting the spare seat has more to do with the fact the forward seats can only be preselected for p1 p and gold and only released more generally much closer to departure. This means if the flight is really full or another couple with status chose 2 seats next to you the your out of luck. Given mo...

  • Using AMEX Travel Credit for Qantas Ultimate

    Oct 06, 2019, 05:26 AM

    For domestic flights when doing your flight search go to the Qantas site first, find the times then narrow your search parameters down to those specific times on the Amex site. Your more likely to find the best price.

  • Cathay Pacific compensation for non-working IFE

    May 31, 2019, 11:49 PM

    IFE is an advertised inclusion which factors into the price you pay and therefore you have a right to expect it. The conditions of carriage don’t necessarily replace your rights under consumer law. So in this case advertising something then not providing it would give you the right to ask f...
