    Qantas cancelled my Business Class classic reward and tried to charge me $3000 to reinstate!

    Whilst I'd definitely keep trying to get QF to do something to rectify I wouldn't be expecting they will. If you have the points back I'd be trying to rebook alternative flights yourself so you at least have something to fallback on. When were the flights?

    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    The Oz-Europe go very quickly. You have to be a bit flexible, try going either points or revenue flight to somewhere in Asia eg Indonesia/Bali, Thailand, Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore etc & then onward to Europe, I'd also look at places that might not be as popular but are close by in...

    Qantas app and website login broken?

    Use both Android & Firefox, have had no issues with either. With your bookings did you receive an email with the 081 ticket number listed or checked on a website/app like checkmytrip?

    QANTAS calling on office staff to help ground crew.

    Should make those responsible for the outsourcing of ground crew go sling the luggage and be on the carousel when passengers are waiting for their bags or deal with the complaints when their luggage did not turn up.

    You don't have to finish in the place you started, it will however count those miles (SYD-SIN) as part of the 35K max.

    Qantas Call Centre Long Wait Times

    AFAIK the only way you can directly get through to Hobart is with high level status. I'm not sure how recent the numbers below are but at one point they were supposed to be for close to flight issues. 1300 025 396 1300 659 116 Others have tried emails to Stephanie Tully & Alan Joyce with some...

    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    Welcome to another Jez! Apologies if I misinterpret your query. To qualify as a OWA in addition to other rules all the flights have to be booked on the one PNR, the booking reference which is a combo of 6 letters & numbers. You book the first flights online or over the phone & then as other...

    Qantas ticketing delays - likely risk of losing booking.

    I booked a couple of Classic Flight Rewards on QR nearly 2 weeks ago & have not received anything from QF yet. Initially I tried the email itinerary on QF website which just produced an error message, why am I not surprised :rolleyes: Next I checked on the QR website where I found the booking...

    Qantas flight cancellation 3rd July 22 - Cathay Pacific - Sydney - Hong Kong - Dublin

    There are a couple of options transiting Japan to Helsinki eg 1st week of July BKK-NRT-HEL with JL & AY or a bit left field 12 of July via Fiji NAN-NRT-HEL on FJ & AY, there was also an economy award SYD-NAN on the 10th. I think transits are ok but you can't leave the airport. If considering...

    Qantas flight cancellation 3rd July 22 - Cathay Pacific - Sydney - Hong Kong - Dublin

    You are not alone see the thread @Scr77 linked to as an example where changes have occured to the detriment of passengers. Without knowing your situation would buying a revenue fare to Asia & picking up flights to Europe from there be a possible alternative? For example there is a bit of...

    Have an AY flight HEL-LIS in my OWA & have received the below email from Finnair The flights still have an AY flight number with the notation that they are "operated by DAT Lt for Finnair". I did a dummy OWA including this flight & it capped at 318k but was wondering if anyone knows whether...

    Not good All that stress & worry that is being put on people due to airlines rescheduling &/or call center staff being poorly trained & not empowered to make changes. To try & mitigate the risk a bit I've resorted to booking BKK-DOH-MAN & MAD-DOH-SYD on QR as a back up to my original...

    How to book a Classic Reward over a few months

    Main issue with adding flights to an existing OWA is that if they don't issue the ticket quick enough you risk losing the already booked flights. If you have status & can get through to Hobart it shouldn't be an issue but the other call centres can be a bit hit & miss, more miss with SA.

    Was bored last night so had a bit of a play to see what was available at short notice & after another look today may have "accidentally"ended up booking a partial OWA. Whether QF actually tickets it or not who knows 🤷‍♂️ So far I've booked First half of Sept 22 BKK-HEL & HEL-LIS Stop AY 2nd...

    The petition has been going for a few weeks, I signed in late March. Looked at it last week & it was in the lowish 2000's from memory so it's really taken off to get to over 17000 post Easter.

    Australian Reports of the Virus Spread

    Thank you for admitting that WA has not yet fully opened up. Yes the WA Govt did change it's policy (about time) & allow community cases to spread. FYI WA currently has a higher booster % than NSW, Vic & Tas on the +16 age grouping . If you roll it back to the 3 months eligibility period then...

    Australian Reports of the Virus Spread

    In your original post you said "NSW,Vic,ACT and Tasmania all had higher levels of Vaccination when they opened up". As many have lamented on here WA has still not opened to the rest of Australia so until 3rd of March you cannot say what vaccinations level WA will have achieved when "opened up".

    Australian Reports of the Virus Spread

    How can WA be opening up with lower vaccination levels than the point in time NSW & Vic opened up when as of today the vaccination percentage for 16+ in WA is higher than both NSW & Vic on 1st dose, 2nd dose & boosters. Tasmania opened up on Dec 15th I believe. At that date vaccinations were...
