Rex confirms business class, eyes flights to every capital city

But I’m sure they may find a comfortable niche among regular fliers. It doesn’t bother me that Qantas have a secret lounge or personal...

Qantas flyers lose American Airlines 'extra legroom' upgrades
Oct 02, 2020, 04:54 PMIs there any point of having reciprocal Oneworld benefits? I would expect BA and CX to soon axe free seat selection for AA elite members. Not that BA is any better charging to choose a seat in business. When every decent seat is an extra or preferred seat, is advertising free seat selection ...

Qantas cracking down on carry-on luggage
Nov 12, 2018, 08:43 PMThere’s a special circle of hell for those ‘rules are rules’ sorts. I thought that QF and Aussies were more lax and above that kind of pedantry.
