  • Virgin Australia launches Canberra-Bali flights

    Jan 28, 2026, 04:01 PM

    Considering this is a leisure route, it is hardly about the "frequent flyer". There would be XYZ number of people out of Canberra flying to Bali, who currently fly via other ports, either on Virgin or other carriers. They simply need to attract a portion of those customers.Noting this is an overn...

  • Use Qantas Points to book Hawaiian Airlines

    Jun 04, 2025, 03:52 PM

    As you're pointed out it's a technicality. For the average person, they will see Hawaiian plane and I assume may even book on the Hawaiian website... a bunch of extra flights, they previously wouldn't have received OneWorld benefits on, they now will. The average person will not care about AOC or...

  • Virgin Australia launches Melbourne-Doha flights

    Will be irrelevant. The Adelaide tag ends in December and will be replaced with Canberra - with different timings to the current Adelaide tag.

  • Qantas’ newest jet spreads its wings to Singapore

    "This will also be the first time the QantasLink brand, rather than that of its parent, will be seen outside Australia." The old Cairns - Port Moresby route may disagree.

  • No music on QantaS

    Apr 09, 2023, 08:59 PM

    I suspect, in the actual real world, 0% of consumers decide which airline to fly due to having music on its IFE. This must be reaching close to the bottom of the barrell for qf bashing.

    @Arnu - as a lowly Bronze member, I have 8 medium+long haul business class classic reward flights this year. Including 2 on QF metal. Some booked 11months out, others booked 4 months out. I personally enjoy this "scam". I don't enjoy calling [email protected] have you considered calling QF and asking i...
