    Qatar denied extra capacity into Australia

    That's now about 12 different reasons. None of them at all convincing. CL benefits continue to be enjoyed by decision-makers, however.

    Who to credit flights to VA or SQ

    Definitely still a thing.

    Who to credit flights to VA or SQ

    I'd be crediting VA - well, that's what I do anyway, despite flying SQ regularly, as well as VA domestically. I also fly other airlines eg ANA, QR and HA, which all help me towards VA WP requal each year - quite easily because of the range of airlines available and also the status credits from...

    As a VA WP, I can't wait to visit the new EY F lounge!

    Changes to Virgin Australia Lounge Terms

    I thought plastic thongs breached the dress code.

    Along the Silk Road cities of Uzbekistan

    Sounds like you had an interesting trip and the wedding would have been a great experience. I can recommend doing Uzbekistan independently rather than on a tour. You can have your own pick of hotels (cheaper, better and more central than the OP's, from the sounds of it) and organise your own...

    SYD DOM J Lounge - Dining Improvements

    If this is considered a dramatic improvement, then the base offering must be appalling.

    Qantas Lounge Gold Coast

    Yes. But you knew this before you chose Qantas for this trip!

    Changes to Virgin Australia Lounge Terms

    I suspect VA is not going to rigidly enforce this but it is just there for the obvious abusers who are taking out a bag full of food for their extended family. I see it at breakfast in the exec lounges at hotels, where guests of a certain ethnicity will often blatantly stuff their bags with...

    Qantas or Singapore Airlines BNE - BKK regularly

    Every SQ marketed and operated flight is good for VFF (as well as codeshares sold by VA), but not the reverse. Yours was the reverse.

    Trans-Tasman Disaster!

    Exactly. What an extraordinarily selfish self-centred person the OP encountered.

    Qantas Systematic Cancellation of Flights

    Well, Qantas' strategy of maximising profits to the detriment and inconvenience of its customers is working because you (and many others) are still flying with them.

    Qantas or Singapore Airlines BNE - BKK regularly

    Can book on SQ website (thus, non-codeshare flights inclusive) and enter your VFF number for direct crediting of VFF points and status credits. No loss.

    Qatar denied extra capacity into Australia

    At the end of the day, Australian consumers are still suffering from our government's shambolic process and its inability to explain why the application was refused. How many different possible reasons are Albo and King up to now?

    Qantas or Singapore Airlines BNE - BKK regularly

    Given that Qantas is now cough, I'd be going all in with VA/Velocity, and flying SQ BNE-SIN-BKK, crediting points and status credits to Velocity. Will be Gold in no time (after also flying the min four VA sectors) and be able to use the SIN Krisflyer Gold lounge (which is now excellent...

    It is certainly is for this Australian federal government.

    Large release of Qantas Business & Economy reward seats to London & Rome [Oct '23]

    A one-off release is just more empty marketing from Qantas. But people get sucked in by the positive headlines so job done.

    AFF Review: Cathay Pacific A350 Premium Economy (HKG-SYD)

    "Some airlines have opted for a 2-3-2 layout in Premium Economy on their Airbus A350s." This is crying out for the author to inform us of those airlines. Particularly as the narrow seat on CX PE was one of the main shortcomings.

    Article: How Qantas & Velocity Point Values Have Changed Over Time

    And in the meantime, Qantas makes it virtually impossible for customers to use their points for anything useful.

    Qantas FF earns high Ancillary Revenue New Report by Cartrawlers

    Wow, I'm not sure I agree with a moderator effectively censoring opinion by editing the OP's thread title. It was not offensive or abusive. [And it is not just Qantas FF ancillary revenue, it is Qantas ancillary revenue, so the new thread title is incorrect anyway. As per notes under the...
