    Qantas to Introduce Group Boarding and Bag Tracking

    To me this raises the question whether we need boarding announcements at all for domestic. I always leave well before any announcements. What would be valuable would be if at T-30 there is no prospect of the flight boarding on time they make an exception announcement.

    The view from my "office"

    Doing some star alliance lounge hopping this evening in BKK Just moved for Silverkris to EVA air where I am all alone. The food in SKL was great but I’m enjoying a guilty pleasure of pizza which look exactly like Pizza Hut and a great fresh salad with a rare runway view from a lounge I too...

    BA 0016 seat configuration

    I'm not sure why too surprised? Have you seen the yield of premium v non-premium? If you're a regular BA flyer you'll see most Y doesn't start till well after the wing as each J seat yields multiples of some Y seat.

    The view from my "office"

    I wish i had more tips...i was a bit lazy and purely relaxed as the W looked after me so well I didnt really want to leave. I was only there for a couple of days so the opportunity cost was high

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    I'm not saying there will not be any upgrades moving forward but QF were actively providing them before with the loyalty note on the BP form what I understand. The VIP ones will continue as per usual. I'm usually booking around 2-6 weeks out for most of my travel.

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    I'm usually in the highest fare class but on the one occasion i wasn't I did get one SYD-BNE. I heard they included even international so potentially J to F or Y to J. The VIP team ones will continue but will be on an ad hoc basis.

    Just an FYI, I've heard that QF has been handing out upgrades very proactively in May but that policy had a hard stop on 1 June. This was for WP and P1 so don't expect these as frequently moving forward.

    Has flying J ruined you?

    In one word...yes My aim in life is never to have to travel Y again. I have a very very reasonable corp travel policy and am a single guy so always looking for a single redemption or reasonable fare so hoping its not too challenging a goal. Early 30s with LTG under the belt and P1 and almost...

    PJs before or after meal?

    For me it depends, my general rule is post take off as I've had some SIN an HKG - SYDs that have returned to the gate for engineering issues. However, for SIN i now give in and just get changed pre-take off as its just too short a flight. For LAX, HKG and on my EK sectors I usually wait until...

    Early Qantas Domestic to Board 30 Minutes Beforehand (8am and Earlier 737 departing MEL/SYD/ADL/BNE/PER)

    Agreed! For many months now I've been leaving the lounge at T-30 as they usually board at around T-25. Nothing new here and has been welcomed as my syd mel vv have often been early if not on time.

    Why can’t QF codeshare with AA on transatlantic flights to cater for the West AUS <> East USA market?

    Am I missing something? Why do they need to codeshare? This is QF which belongs to an actual alliance whereby they get reciprocal benefits and earning

    Is there a need for a new Oneworld tier above Emerald?

    Agree with the sentiment here...if you fly one particular airline frequently let them look after you in their own way. There's no consistent way to recognize a tier above emerald. Just be thankful for emerald as star and scaryteam are pretty average topping out a relatively mid tier. I cant...

    Problems with Qantas website booking

    I’ve had that a few times recently but no issues yesterday after this was reported. Also had issues on the final stage of booking EK flights but last night managed to secure some EK F in the next few months.
