  • Virgin Australia axes Sydney-Hong Kong flights

    Feb 11, 2020, 09:50 PM

    This is one of the reasons why I never chose to be loyal to VA. No global partnerships programs (like *A, OW) very poor international network, insufficient and confusing partners / codeshare arrangements and uncertain and non-sustainable routes. These are the reasons why I'm loyal to QF. It's not...

  • Your guide to bringing guests into Qantas lounges

    Mar 15, 2019, 08:48 PM

    Question: OWE (QF WP) travelling on AA from LAX T4 - I assume I would have access to the QF FCL at LAX TBIT. Can I bring a +1 who travels on QF flight that evening (not same flight as I)?

  • Shaping Qantas' next-gen first, business class

    Feb 26, 2019, 11:20 PM

    An area where you can do push-ups, a handle bar for pull-ups and yoga mat to do sit-ups and stretches. Best prevention of DVT is to do some basic body weight exercises. This can be at lower deck (cargo area) w/o windows. Dine on demand with healthy, vegan and light options. Meditation, stretching...

  • Why SQ22 doesn't have a lounge

    Does the new A350ULR have a coffin as the A345 had?

  • AirNZ offers Star Alliance Gold status match

    Sep 12, 2018, 11:56 PM

    Thanks a lot. I was more referring to if NZ has same rule as QF where you have to fly sectors on its airline’s own metal in order to reach/ extend gold. Some airlines do have this rule (like QF, UA) some airlines don’t have it (eg OZ). Reformulating the question: can one extend the ...

  • QF P1 - is it worth it?

    Mar 14, 2020, 12:00 AM

    The SST makes ALL the difference. As P1 I was stuck multiple times due to flight disruption and the SST went above and beyond to get me home. A service you don't get with P or gold. For example on my last trip from SIN the QF flight got cancelled. SST called me and arranged an alternative immedia...

  • Qantas A330 ex BNE VS JAL 787-9 ex SYD

    Feb 14, 2020, 03:41 PM

    If you don't need the SCs then save 2x 2+h of your life and fly direct. I have done both and as you state each has it's pro and con. I did many QF legs via MEL for the SCs but did also JAL and managed to get a good sleep on the return red eye and I'm 6.6. It is a it tight but if u get a window s...

  • New layout for the forum is really bad

    Oct 01, 2019, 01:38 AM

    PS: also the search option for old forums is totally useless as it is not working. There were very useful tips in the community comments on AUSBT (if u searched for example for “ORC” some comments had super useful tips) - now all gone!Why change something that ...

  • New layout for the forum is really bad

    Oct 01, 2019, 01:26 AM

    I am logging in for the first time since the new website is up just to say how ridiculously bad it is - it is so bad that I totally stopped using and visiting this website and forum. It's a damn shame. Bring back the old AUSBT! Relevant topics, great community, easy to use!If no major changes wil...
