• They will need to increase the frequency of the Intercontinental flights with the A350 to make up for the reduction in capacity of the A380. That could be a problem with slot constrained Heathrow.

  • If you have a check-in bag it's probably not a viable arrival option. If you don't take your bag off the luggage carousel within a reasonable time what happens to your bag?

  • I'm doing my status run later today (B787 Perth to Melbourne) and now find out I didn't need to go to the trouble 😄. To top it off the flight is delayed as it left Heathrow late thanks to the dramas at that airport. Just got my QF email and have received 30,000 points as a platinum gift w...

  • With all the closed borders I'm flying Qantaslink a lot more often so I'll be making use of this enhancement. I'm flying the nearly 4 hour journey to Darwin (from Perth) in November on the A320 so I'm delighted those jets are getting upgraded first.

  • Great that points and status credits being offered too. If they did it from Perth and bundled it with a Perth hotel I would jump at it. Only getting 10 status credits on flights within WA.

  • Will the gradual removal of intrastate borders within WA I've just come back from 2 nights in Bunbury, a drive of just under 2 hours from Perth, as the southern border was the first to go. I've just booked a 2 night stay in Geraldton for early July, a 1 hour flight on Qantas, as the northern bord...

  • Received an e-mail today from Qantas offering 25% status credit bonus for all flights between Australia and NZ booked between 23 to 30 March after you have registered your interest. Travel has to be from 1 April to 30 June this year. Has anybody else received the same e-mail? I've done my dash wi...

  • It is just one guest. I have gold status but also get 2 QF lounge passes from Westpac each year. When I was in Singapore last year I used my gold status to get one guest into the QF lounge and a lounge pass for the other. Maybe your friend, if eligible, could sign up for one of the credit cards t...

  • Qantas refresh for old Boeing 747s

    Jan 06, 2017, 05:23 PM

    Qantas should have got another 2 A380s and retired those 747s. Their running costs are a lot higher than an A380 and you can't underestimate the cost of annoying loyal Qantas passengers by providing substandard business class products. A little bit off topic, I have a fe...
