    2021 Travel Plans

    Plan for 2021: - Domestic joy flight, SYD-ADL-ASP-DRW on a classic reward. During the stopover in ASP, charter a chopper, take photos of all the aircraft in storage. - Ski trip to NZ coming winter might be possible, otherwise it'll be Thredbo. Else, stay home, save money.

    747 Bar Carts

    A pack of 12, though I think it'll come individually wrapped like you get on the self serve bars onboard.

    747 Bar Carts

    Snagged a half sized one this morning. Used the email link for WP if that mattered. Also received 10% off for being in points club plus. I'm pretty excited to be honest, the 747 was such a special aircraft.

    How long did Qantas take to process your refund for cancelled flights?

    No word yet at the 10 week mark. Called Qantas again today, was advised request will be sent to the refunds team and you should get the refund in a few days. Received an email after the call, stating the above. It is quite plausible that they do not action initial refund request until you chase...

    Whats typical QF points compensation for having broken no IFE

    5000 points on a SYD-DPS in J when the IFE audio could not be used as a previous user left a remnant of the 3.5mm pin in the port. (was promised 10k points, 5k automatically transferred and 5k to be manually processed, but I only received 5k all up.

    LATAM SCL Lounge access with QF28

    9hrs is a long time to be spending in the mediocre LATAM lounge. I'd check if day rates are available at the Holiday Inn.

    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic Reward seats?

    Had a request approved by the system for PE for SYD-HND, a good result given its usually quite difficult to get reward seats on this route and revenue fares are usually high. Not successful for J and regular Y though.

    Platinum sitting in economy - Do the airlines pay extra attention to us?

    Interesting, the last time I receieved an incoming express pass was 6 months ago. Noticeably absent since.

    Platinum sitting in economy - Do the airlines pay extra attention to us?

    I believe so. Based on my experience entering SYD earlier this week, the signs are still present just before the passport gates, but when I tried to use a express entry pass from past trips, I was told by a staff member its no longer a thing. Likewise at quarantine, there isnt an express queue.

    Lack of curtains separating Business and Economy on 737

    Not fussed at all when flying J on a 737 and Y passengers use the J bathroom. But I always make a concious effort to walk to the rear lavatories when I fly in row 4. The issue here is structural, without a physical barrier, Y passengers will always have pausible deniability when it come to using...

    Platinum sitting in economy - Do the airlines pay extra attention to us?

    I realize nothing much happens on Trans Tasman Y (other than front row + likelihood of blocked middle seat). It is rather similar to domestic Y in terms of the service. Anyway you didnt get an express arrivals as it is no longer a thing in SYD.

    Platinum sitting in economy - Do the airlines pay extra attention to us?

    On QF26, sat in the first row of Y. Woke up to find a J amenity kit beside me. WP beside me received one as well. I'm thinking it's becoming a norm on long haul international flights?

    Platinum sitting in economy - Do the airlines pay extra attention to us?

    Just stepped off QF79 in Y tonight. While the personalized greeting can feel a little awkward, I did appreciate the proactive distribution of J amenity kits to WPs.
