    Qantas apologises to frequent flyers with status extensions, lounge passes, points & more reward seats

    The first one was a "boost" and it was a one-off gift. Once the pandemic was clearly rolling on a bit longer QANTAS introduced "status support" which provided for on-going roll-overs of status credits to help maintain status. No fix introduced, but just a limit to the initial generosity but...

    Jetstar turn back; Failed to Get Authorisation

    Presumably a completely justified box ticking exercise so that the receiving airport knows which planes are actually turning up on its doorstep and can make appropriate arrangements for receiving that type of aircraft.

    Qantas apologises to frequent flyers with status extensions, lounge passes, points & more reward seats

    To illustrate this point, this is my wheel on the final day of my year a month ago This is then the photo at the start of the new year: And then finally this is how it now presents: Ignore a few that hit readjusted because they caught up on some that were missing, but you can see what happens.

    Qantas apologises to frequent flyers with status extensions, lounge passes, points & more reward seats

    It can be really quite confusing because the guidelines say: What will the Status Credits that are rolled over contribute towards? The Status Credits rolled over will contribute towards attaining and retaining status for Platinum One, Platinum, Gold and Silver. They won’t contribute towards any...

    Qantas apologises to frequent flyers with status extensions, lounge passes, points & more reward seats

    Yes, but only because they have been deducted from what you have already earned. It’s a case of taking with one hand and giving back with the other. The net effect is that rolled over status credits do NOT add to your lifetime status tally

    Qantas apologises to frequent flyers with status extensions, lounge passes, points & more reward seats

    My year rolled over at the start of December. My wheel shows the 1800 rolled over (as well as the 376 I actually earned in December 2022) as “earned this year”. The “already earned” segment is down by the 1800 they’ve rolled forward. While it’s a bit annoying to my ego that the “already earned”...

    Qantas doesn't care about priority boarding

    Very long line in red boarding queue for QF427 this morning SYD-MEL @ 9am. And very short queue for PB. So short I wasn’t there long enough to see whether the disparity in queue length was through good enforcement or good behaviour.

    JQ 787 domestic business seats?

    Yes, MEL would certainly be easier. Enjoy the F Lounge, before walking out to T4 and getting a domestic, or if they offer a QF domestic even easier

    New Jetstar app?

    Shortly after the app was released I was asked for and gave some feedback - it doesn't recognise "OOL" as an airport; only GOL(D COAST). Very frustrating as every other airline app recognises the IATA airport codes and automatically using them is a hard habit to break
