You should be able to decline the change and get a refund (and then buy a ticket on the 8pm flight yourself). Only problem is refund may/will take some time.

Another reason to never book domestic trips as anything other than separate one-ways.

Reduced chance of ending up in an El Salvadorian prison?

How big a haul of points do you think you'd get for LHR-GLA?

I guess that goes without saying?

Yes they would be able to access the QF domestic J lounge before an EK flight in F.

I suppose a chatbot wouldn't necessarily be worse than the Phillipines call centre. There was a time not that many years ago when you could actually chat online to someone.

I used to measure the benefit of my QC membership in cappucinos, of course that was before they had the barrista station which made it much more complicated. Now I have to factor toasties into the equation as well?!!

CR availability is so bad these days it's effectively phased them out already.

I got 10K for non-functioning IFE in J recently, would not have accepted less than 30K for non-functioning seat.

Some possible "non issues" include: - No F on the 330s (often there's no IFE either). - Adds ~2 hours to the journey. - Possible to misconnect if late leaving Melbourne. - Introduces chance for baggage to misconnect even if you don't.

Surely that's Y and not J though? On the whole there does seem to be more CR availability out of SYD than out of MEL, even for routes with similar number of flights. Much easier to get SYD-CHC than MEL-CHC, for example.

My impression is that classic awards have been severely reduced, particularly in J, since Classic+ launched for domestic. I used to be able to get MEL/ADL in J with one or two weeks notice - now, there's usually nothing except the 6am flight within several months. Don't even think about MEL/PER...

I think that's related to rechargable power banks, a button battery should be no issue.

"They" may but this is Qantas don't forget :)

Seat 1A in economy and 9C in business 😆

You're supposed to have a choice of meal in J but there's no guarantee one will be meat free. (And lately I've found there's often no choice anyway). You should request a vegetarian meal in advance if you want one.

Flexi fares just mean they can be changed without change fees, it doesn't mean the change is free :) Y is full-fare economy, which is usually very expensive and often more expensive than discount business class. It's unlikely you would have wanted to pay that from the beginning without knowing...

The domestic QC has the advantage of large windows into the departures hall, which does allow (indirect) natural light in. Artificial lighting can never really make up for lack of natural light.

Incredible idea from the RBA here. Apparently no one remembers who it was who made card surcharges possible in the first place.
