    Qantas Classic Plus devaluation

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

    Non-reclining J seat: what compo should I ask for?

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

    Melbourne to London via SIN?

    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.

    How to Use Up Qantas Points? Obviously not on flights

    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.

    Classic and Classic Plus domestic availability quirk

    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...

    Qantas x July

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

    Domestic Business Meals - Veg option?

    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.

    When is a Flexi fare not Flexi

    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...

    Refurbishment at MEL QF International Business lounge?

    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.

    Card payment sucharges banned in Australia from 2026

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

    I love a happy ending. Can you imagine Qantas ever doing anything like this?!

    Confused about points refund

    When you drop one or more legs you don't necessarily get back the points that booking that flight as a standalone journey would cost, instead the entire itinerary will be repriced and you'll be refunded the difference less the cancellation fee. You'd need to price up the shorter itinerary to...

    QANTAS Cyber Incident

    Is anyone else getting sick of the term "cyber"? It's just normal white collar crime these days, it *all* involves computers and the internet. The word cyber is only used to make it seem like it's something unusual and "way out" that they couldn't possibly have prevented. Pure deflection.

    Dodgy "mixed cabin itinerary" on classic awards

    I know they like to do this internationally but never seen it domestically before. Dodgy AF.
