Does anyone here know whether they can use money on a Qantas Pass on a Jetstar booking?

Anyone flown Y from Tokyo back to Oz lately on QANTAS? I did so in 2008 it was too long ago for me to remember. Are mask rules still enforced? Do you get both dinner and breakfast and are there any lounge options for Tokyo (with priority pass or for a fee)? Many thanks

I believe we are allowed to buy our pass some months in advance. Does this mean we can buy a pass at the old rate in August to be validated in October?

Decided that I am finally due for a trip home to see my family. Flying MEL-SYD domestically and then SYD-KUL-HGH on AirAsia flatbed, leaving SYD at 2045. What is the LATEST time my domestic flight can arrive in Sydney for me to make the connection? What is your recommended time? I don't want to...

Thanks. I think I'll go for a reasonable resort in Seminyak, go for a jog on the beach, swim, and then undo the good work by over-eating. Just in time for my red-eye economy flight home! (Suggestions for Balinese snacks to take on the flight?)

This happened back in 2013 flying on China Southern Airlines from BNE-CAN-CTU when weather delayed the connection. Ok, masks were not compulsory then. But we boarded the connecting flight at 0230 and didn't depart till 0430.

Chance of attendance: high

Economy class, middle seat, with screaming children either side, delayed connection of 8 hours due to weather/operational reasons, forced to go to holding area during transit until 0430 (no lounge, not even water), no accommodation or meal vouchers provided, forced to wear mask at all times

May be having 1.5 days (Saturday lunchtime to Sunday night) stopover in Bali later this year. Would like some suggestions as to how best to spend this time as a first time Bali visitor. Not interested in the drugs / sleaze scene. Many thanks!

I've flown on LOT in short haul intra-Europe. They were fine, service was even good, in Y. Never flown on Air India and personally do not recommend it from reviews. Also I would not transfer in India unless it was an intentional multi-day stopover.

I think Perth to Doha in J for 78k VA points is currently a sweet spot with QR and the VA program.

After about 4 hours on the phone and endless arguments, managed to change first leg of flight to 19 September and get a stopover in Tokyo. They had offered me an involuntary downgrade on the sin-nrt sector to Y (not even PE). I said no.

7 month saga! And without points being refunded (if they continued to refuse to do so!) That would be truly horrifying. At the best of time my temper doesn't last me 7 MINUTES let alone 7 months. I actually don't mind going "only" on J on this trip. The main issue is that my itinerary has now...

I regret to have to moan about a not-so-good predicament I now find myself in regarding my SQ redemption booking. This is a prolonged saga so I will get on with getting down the details. 1. Originally I booked an F redemption from MEL-HKG-SFO for June of this year about 11 months in advance...

Hello everyone, happy Autumn (or Fall as I like to call it!) I might have 2-3 days as a stopover in Tokyo this September! I've been to Tokyo before but only done shopping, have not really gone and seen the sights. Any suggestions for 2 days? I would prefer a mixture of indoors and outdoors...

Taroko Gorge is gorgeous.

I've done the main sights of Rome in one whirlwind day - the Vatican, the Forum, the Collosseum and the Trevi Fountain and Tiber River. So taking one day off your Rome itinerary is easily doable. Paris needs 4 days at a MINIMUM. Are you going to London on this trip also?

SQ availability vanished the day after the last post. Waitlists only. Was lucky enough to get a redemption seat on Qantas in their latest batch that they most stingily doled out. In business class.

This morning nothing worked. This evening managed to get my redemption on the day that I wanted, JNB-SYD on 18-11-23 business class. Not that I expect much in Qantas business these days. The last time I flew in Qantas J was to Tokyo in 2014 - and the product was to say the least underwhelming...

Yes well I was thinking about Crete and Samaria Gorge for a couple of days. Alternatively I can just skip Greece and just fly to TLV from Athens.
