Re: QF PER LHR still not for sale Yield. What destination in mainland Europe could Qantas extract sufficient yield over using the planes on a slot constrained HKG? Additionally the fleet utilization would be poor... assuming you want to go MEL-DXB-mainland Europe and meet up with QF1/2 in DXB...

Melbourne is on track for a greater population, but that is only part of the picture. Economically, SYD appears to provide better yields (i think EY's move this week confirms that). I originally thought QF might keep the MEL-DXB leg, but apparently QF believes it can make more more flying it to...

And??? I'm not sure QF should be launching services from cities purely for ego reasons. The reality is that SYD is still Australia's leading economic city... if I was running an airline, I'd fly from there too.

While often QF deserves some critiquing for it's SYD focus, for the time being, they are effectively just re-routing a service through a different stop-over. I didn't see any name change suggestions after MEL-NRT is launched.... plus QANTAS just has a better ring to it :-) Given their current...

14.5.4 Stopover conditions: (a) Five free stopovers are permitted; (b) Additional stopovers are not permitted; (c) You may only stop once in any one city; (d) Only two transfers are permitted at any one city. Sorry mate, not sure how you read it that way. Clarification might be useful...

It already is in the wiki under the rules.

Re: Qantas: non-stop Australia (Perth)-Europe (London) Boeing 787 flights set to soar That assumes QF keeps current QF 1/2 schedules. Could be a wider shake up... we'll find out soon.

Hey all Just thought I'd share my recent 280J booking, which will be my second 280J. Originally I was just doing a return trip to North America which cost me 196,000 points and around $900 tax. Considering that for only another 80,000 odd points I could get another trip in, I decided it was...

Perhaps the definition of 'transit' varies for a OWA and the assessment of whether the APD is payable? I have no idea... just putting it out there.

Yes, sorry it doesn't help. More just letting you know you're not alone...

I was looking at add an AA flight to my current OWA booking... I've been checking availability often and there was heaps. Now searching today, I get the same error message: "We are unable to find recommendations from the airlines we search. Please change your search criteria and resubmit the...

Go PER to SIN via MEL?? Who do you work for... Qantas? :)

Noting that QF don't sell F to HKG... even when the A380 flies there seasonally.

Seems fine to me. Have you seen much YVR-HKG-KUL availability? YVR-HKG seems tough to get a seat in my searches. Also, perhaps coming back from HEL, you could do HEL-HKG-PER, instead of HEL-SIN-PER. Get to fly home on CX with better business class and cheaper taxes than QF

Noting, if this is an economy booking, you need to add the service fee (8,000pts) per call. If booking economy, you should try and do it in a single booking if possible.

Just to clarify, the flights "link together" because you should be making them using the same booking reference number. You can't book individual flight segments with different reference numbers and link them afterwards.

I would treat that with some skepticism... the airport isn't even built yet.

Did you sign a contract with the previous firm? Have they "just" listed the default with credit listing companies or obtained a default judgement from the local court/state tribunal? Complaints about incorrect credit default listings can be made to OAIC...

Well actually, before I booked ORD-HKG, I actually booked into ORD-HKG-SIN (with HKG as a transit) on CX without drama. I ended up ringing QF the next day and changed to ORD-HKG as going through to SIN took up too many miles (there was J availability on ORD-HKG-SIN and just ORD-HKG) Not sure...

I previously had booked: CBR-BNE-LAX (stop) on QF LAX-SYD-CBR (stop) on QF After changing, I'm now doing: CBR-BNE-LAX (stop) on QF ORD-HKG (stop) on CX After Hong Kong, I intend to book a separate economy ticket home and then after a few months return to Hong Kong and do something like...
