    New lounge trial in DPS

    Thanks all. To answer questions: 1. This was before immigration. I left with 30 mins to board and ended up waiting around at the gate lounge for a while, as the flight ended up delayed. Would've been right on time, but obviously ymmv. This was the one aspect I was iffy about, as there were no...

    New lounge trial in DPS

    Wanted to stop by and let my fellow AFF-ers know about the lounge trial Qantas has going on in DPS airport. I've flown QF44 DPS-SYD and QF46 DPS-MEL a couple of times each, and each time the lounge experience at the "Premire lounge" has been sub-par. Thankfully apparently Qantas has been...

    Cancel award online - how long until points back in account

    I've done this twice in the past few months. The first time it took ~5 business days, the second time is was as soon as I got off the call.

    Flight Attendant's list of WPs

    I noticed on MEL-SYD QF452 last night that the flight attendant had a list of the WPs (including me) in Y, alongside their seat numbers, stuck on the drinks cart. Are there some sort of allowances that are made that I'm not aware of? (Free drinks on a Sunday?) It struck me as odd as all of the...

    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    Oh, and DEFINITELY go to the Emirates lounge instead of Qantas's J bunker. I'm not sure what the exact entry requirements are but I was SG at the time. Just have to watch your boarding time a bit more closely as they won't announce your QF flight, but the experience is easily 10x nicer (empty...

    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    Not too bad, although as they're 737s on a relatively short leg, the experience more like a domestic J flight (no PJs, only some seat recline, basic toiletries). The IFE malfunctioned on the return and the attendants has to resort to handing out magazines from a stash they had, but I'm sure...

    Just wanted to say a big thanks for this jetpack — I did this over the weekend, and have just hit WP for the first time. Most grateful!

    Double Status Credits on QF Operated Flights. Book 9/8/18-14/8/18 for travel 21/8/18 to 8/8/19

    A question on timing: I'm booking a status run around 10 days before my anniversary date (end of October). I know sometimes it can take weeks for the DSCs to post — am I at risk of not getting the bump to WP while waiting for the DSCs, or is this an easy thing to call up and ask to have fixed?

    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    Hi all, long-time lurker first time poster. I'm coming up to my anniversary date in October, and am thinking of stretching myself for WP with the double SC promo. I'm in SYD and have read that CHC options can be worthwhile. I've come up with SYD-MEL-CHC and CHC-BNE-SYD for $2,759 with 250SC...
