    Stupid and silly QF catering questions

    I am teetotal anyway so a bar makes no difference to me. But having an "appetiser" would be nice, all J appetisers have generally been quite enjoyable. I should think that they at least serve up an entree in the American sense. And not just a croissant.

    Stupid and silly QF catering questions

    (1) If you catch a Qantas domestic flight in J after 8pm, say at 8.30pm, not a redeye but getting to the destination the same evening, do you get served dinner or just a "snack"? (2) On a flight from Melbourne to LAX departing in the evening and arriving at sunset the same day, is the first...

    Trip report - JPN/USA autumn 2023

    I went to Japan and USA this September and October. A brief summary of my trip: MEL-SIN-NRT on SQ (J): I thought the food in the SQ lounge in Melbourne was great, better than I had experienced in the past. Both legs of the trip were good but the lounge in SIN was very crowded. NRT-LAX on SQ...

    Qantas customer services woes (Part 2)

    Called Qantas and they insisted they only charged me once. Called Amex and they confirmed I was charged twice. They are now processing it as a disputed charge. I believe Qantas are deliberately doing this. Ethical integrity ZERO!!!

    CEO retiring, what changes at Qantas would you like to see

    JoyceAir. It would uniquely honour both Alan Joyce and Barnaby Joyce. And in doing so accentuate its commitment to inclusiveness by honouring people of all sexualities.

    CEO retiring, what changes at Qantas would you like to see

    I'd like to see Qantas formally dissolved. From its ashes some form of airline will rise phoenix-like to serve the people of Australia.

    Qantas customer services woes (Part 2)

    Following from my previous Qantas customer service woes thread, the current situation is this: my last cancellation of redemption points eventually resulted in my points being refunded after 3 phone calls over 3 weeks, however, after 4 phone calls, my Qantas Credit refund request has still not...

    Anyone seen the DFW-MEL J menu? 17 hours and only two meals, do they have a decent mid-flight snack menu and is it on demand?

    Qantas customer service woes, help please

    As of this morning, after three transfers and holds, eventually got through to a department where the lady actually spoke English as a first language, and FF points were refunded. Whoopee! Was advised the credits were processed on August 10th and that it would take 1 week from today to receive...

    Cheap flights coming? - China’s back

    Another thing that has changed is that air conditioning is no longer set at goosebump levels; instead they are set at the maximum tolerable temperature (high 20s) in order to save power. Depending on your own personal view this can be good or bad.

    Cheap flights coming? - China’s back

    It's easy enough to pay with cash although few people do it. I don't think that things will get ironed out in the foreseeable future. It seems that they are intentionally making it difficult for the foreign devils, and even naturalised ethnic-Chinese Westerners (faux foreign devils).

    Qantas customer service woes, help please

    After a finite number of attempts I plan to escalate the issue to the aviation consumer commission. Realistically if it is not resolved by Halloween.

    Qantas customer service woes, help please

    About 7 weeks ago I called Qantas to (1) get my Flight credit refunded and I also cancelled a redemption booking online. 2 weeks later, my flight credit was not refunded and it remained on the system. My points from the redemption were not refunded even though I did get my taxes back. I called...

    Cheap flights coming? - China’s back

    I'm in China right now. There are probably 20 times fewer non-Chinese people than pre-pandemic. You can only buy tickets at the electronic vending machines if you have Chinese ID. You can only enter museums if you have prebooked with Chinese ID. Otherwise you wait in the manual queue for what...
