    A380 To Fly Special MEL > SYD Flight 23feb24 (QF7168)

    I’m wondering if the weather has had any effect on BNE Syd flights. My daughter’s family coming in from o/s for Tay Tay has had their Syd flight 557 cancelled. Sigh maybe a 380 was needed there too!

    LATAM; Gold Coast Booking issues?

    Thanks for this. Could I clarify as to why the bags and airside transfer wouldn't be connected? I may be wrong but as I understand, the flight is Codeshared with Jetstar. Interesting idea about QF tho... Nevertheless, the issue may be cost for her. There is a super-tight budget Thanks!

    Hi. My daughter has been attempting to book a flight from the Gold Coast with LATAM - flying to Chile, return She keeps getting 'access denied' or 'flights not available' after she has selected the flights, put passenger and payment details in AND the card is approved although the LATAM site...

    Red Energy referral 15,000 QF points [now 7,000 or $100]

    Great to be able to answer a question for YOU, Mr. H! To answer your question I think it is only about a month after you have paid your bill. If you are recommending I think the points showing up are much longer (- - about 2 months?) although in my experience I had to chase them down for...

    Good noise-cancelling headphones

    That is really useful. Thank you! Yes! you are right in all the assumptions and the music also has played a good role, although not from within the headphones. 🎵. It's quite an issue for her and can seriously stress her out. To be continued...

    Good noise-cancelling headphones

    It is a good question and there are a couple of reasons I am currently discounting it... 1. ear plugs so far haven't really done it. Even the mouldable ones that completely fill the ear don't block the loudest thunder. 2. Other in-ear plugs tend to be not comfortable/less effective etc.... 3...

    Good noise-cancelling headphones

    I have a slightly (well very) left field question. I am not looking for NC headphones for flying but for thunder! I have a family member who really reacts badly to thunder and we have thought some good headphones may do the trick. I think they would have to be over the ears rather than...

    QF24 Delayed 13 HOURS BKK-SYD

    I'm just wanting to return to the original thrust of this thread. I submitted some accommodation and food receipts today (insignificant $$ for 2 people) and not long after received an email saying..... "We’d like to apologise for the extended disruption to your flight QF24 from Bangkok on 07...

    Article: Qantas Considers Bringing Call Centres Back to Australia

    Speaking as a lowly Bronze, booking a OWA I can only say the overseas call centre experience has been nothing short of awful. Everyone who talks about good training is right, of course. And there have been some people I have encountered in various locations that have done well. But what is...

    Best J lounge at BKK?

    Yes J. Thank heavens. As this is a delayed flight tho, I doubt there is extra cramming. Just extra grumpy! 🤣

    Best J lounge at BKK?

    Oh yeah! That is so right! Indeed. Makes the whole conversation redundant because some of them probably won't be open and I doubt we would be in the lounge much anyway. Thanks for all the info. It will help someone, sometime, I am sure.

    QF24 Delayed 13 HOURS BKK-SYD

    Thanks everyone for this. Much appreciated. I had seen the guidance but sometimes what is written and done are different things.... For us we found out about 10pm BKK time and were able to book a room for an extra night. It meant moving rooms but a small inconvenience. The cost is more...

    Best J lounge at BKK?

    Hello All the previous conversations on this seem old so..... We are doing the final leg tomorrow of an OWA in J, on QF24 from BKK to Sydney. I know there is a selection of lounge options. Any recommended preferences? Will probably be in there for 3 hours or so. Thanks!
