Qantas Boeing 737 business class guide: seats, lounges and more [2022]
Jul 09, 2021, 03:37 PMI have flown business on a 737 many times from Perth to Adelaide ( try to get on the bigger planes if going to MEL or SYD). I wouldn't pay for the seat as the difference is nowhere near enough to justify the extra cost (especially as I am platinum ff and would get all of the pre-flight benefits) ...

COVID-19: overseas arrival caps halved, home quarantine trial
Jul 02, 2021, 02:42 PMI am going to be interested to see how this works. this doesn't seem a reasonable exit strategy to me...just delaying things further. Elsewhere in the world things are already returning to normal, my friends in the UK, US etc are returning to regular travel and British Airways/Easyjet etc are reg...

UK to axe most duty-free sales, close VAT refund scheme
Sep 18, 2020, 04:02 PMI couldn't be bothered to join the queue for the refunds anyway particularly if for a fairly small amount. Guess this also makes things easier for Australian customs as you either pay 20% VAT and cant get it back or pay cost of shipping plus 10% GST if you want it here and is above the threshold.

Qantas Dallas Flights
Jun 24, 2022, 03:13 PMDoes anybody know if Qantas has plans to re-introduce the A380 on the Sydney to Dallas route soon.

Would like to be able to upgrade to...

Oct 02, 2019, 03:56 PMI am a Qantas Platinum FF and will be flying with Lufthansa for 4 flights as part of a Business Class RTW deal (US-Europe-UK-Eur-Sin). Is it worth trying to get status matching from a Star Alliance airline?Thanks for any advice

Qantas 'customer satisfaction' questionnaires
Apr 17, 2019, 06:04 PMI get these on a fairly regular basis (am Platinum FF) probably about one for every 5 flights (domestic and international) I do. I have asked to be contacted a couple of times in the past when I felt I had a reasonable gripe but heard nil. Still think it is worth supplying the feedback to them.So...

Missing status credits on QF
Apr 17, 2019, 05:52 PMI had the same issue a few months ago. Got credited for HEL-LHR and the return but after a few weeks chased the LGA-HEL and HEL-HKG. Was a bit of a kerfuffle and had to reapply when the claim came back and was denied...no record of travel so I sent in a pic of my Boarding passes was then credited...
