Qantas to Introduce Group Boarding and Bag Tracking

[BD1959]

It's Not about speeding up, its about recognising Status after all the moaning we have done about it not working for years. And now PB works.

You sure about it not looking to speed up boarding times?

"Our 737 and A330 fleets cover most of our Domestic operations and are larger aircraft with most room for improvement of boarding times."

1 or a few boarding experiences ≠ improvement or non-improvement of boarding times.

I was quoting the expected results from QF to counter that claimed by Ansett - not talking to actual expereinces.

Any experiences with having bookings linked for boarding group purposes at the airport? How easy is it actually to do, say, at the lounge entry?

Extremely easy and very routine for check-in or lounge staff to do.

The contact centre staff can do it as well.

I’ve found most if not all of the lounge staff will do it without being asked given the whole group boarding situation.

Only once have I been told to come back but they easily did it before boarding so not a big deal.

Contact centre staff can also do it and if you don’t won’t to call and wait can send a message via messenger, if doing via the contact centre you won’t notice any difference to the booking until check in time.
