Excellent. Thx.

Hi all, advice needed if anyone knows this one. I had a single QR ticket all business class which had: - VCE-FRA (Lufthansa) - FRA-DOH (QATAR) - DOH-SIN (QATAR) The Lufthansa flight was late and they (Lufthansa) rebooked me onto a Lufthansa flight FRA-SIN. I was due to receive 160SCs (QANTAS)...

With a single itinerary on a single PNR, I would have thought when you check in at MEL your bags will be tagged through to LHR.

Well, here’s a further update and it’s not so good (but it ends up ok). Transfer desk coded my bags onto the QR flights to Doha & Milan. Although this happened the bags didn’t move. Fortunately I had an apple airtag on one of them and I could watch their (lack of) movement during the day...

Ok, so now for an update. I’m currently at SIN (almost 9:30am). I arrived last night on QF35, and on a separate PNR I’m departing tonight on QR to MXP. In Melbourne QANTAS said they were unable to interline the baggage and I’d need to collect it in SIN and recheck it. When I arrived last night...

As the use of TPs with DSCs progressed, the T&C evolved. My first couple earned DSCs if I used the TP for at least half of the cost of a booking, or exhausted the remaining balance. My last few required me to use the TP to pay the full cost of a booking, or to use the remaining balance.

I got both P and then P1 last year for the first time. P was like yours - a single bag tag - but P1 was two. But P1 is a coughpy pale indifferent colour. The Platinum bag tag is the best looking, especially with the 100 years.

If you work at the margins it’s probably dubious value. But once you start looking at premium cabins for long haul flights it gets to be a pretty reasonable proposition (IMO).

So much I have to learn obviously!! :)

I don't think the BA program flights will earn SCs as they are earnt for the purposes of PC on "QANTAS marketed" "Classic Flight Rewards"

In 2025 my son will fly in economy class to the UK to visit his wife's family (with his wife). They are both QFF Bronze, so neither have lounge access entitlements. In 2024 when there is a 50% bonus points offer I will buy 225,000 points (150,000 x 150%) for $3,999 for his account. He will...

The FAQ for the DSC offer re Gift Vouchers says as below. That would suggest that the Gift Voucher has to be redeemed during the booking window of the DSC offer period. Are Qantas Gift Vouchers eligible for this offer? Gift Vouchers purchased and redeemed for an eligible flight booking made...

I only came across one business that didn't take AMEX - it was almost universally accepted everywhere I went

They simply didn't take ApplePay (I had both AMEX and MasterCard on my phone). I paid with my physical AMEX on my return.

Is there a current promotion - targeted maybe?

I'm currently having a little holiday on the Gold Coast and the cafe near where I am staying is taking my Perfect Gift Card (purchased recently through EDR) and is one of the few not adding a transaction fee to the use of any gift/credit card (but that's probably another topic). But...

Went to Idaho in February for a couple of weeks. Did not handle any cash, but did have one interesting experience. I paid for all of my expenses with ApplePay through my phone except for one restaurant that didn't take ApplePay. I had paid that way at some pretty tiny establishments, and this...

Do you still have a voucher with Double Status Credits to use for the booking?

But, even if it is sold there, it’s not included in the points offer by the looks

If you can lock in (some) travelers up to a year in advance for little marginal cost by giving DSC then it’s probably something that will be on the agenda in future years. Better QF nabs them early than letting them leak off to Virgin, REX or Bonza.
