The new app is working for me this morning and it looks a great improvement. I had to laugh I have a trip to JNB soon and it tells me to relax in the Business lounge in Syd, you would think as I am platinum and the app knows that it would say First Lounge. Maybe Qantas are leading up to a new...

There is a finite amount of money that taxes can provide so every false claim means less to give to genuine cases.

Damn Telstra fixed my telephone line a few days ago and now the phone calls have started again, all going to voicemail at least. Telstra must have been doing upgrades in the area with lots of digging in the streets and phone was offline for a couple of months but I never use the phone as only...

I have always thought it was a joke that if you buy a flexible ticket you need to pay extra. It seems that it is a sort of flexible ticket and you pay what ever we think extra you should. I don't care what terms conditions say flexible to me means you can change, please can the airlines change...

I was once in the old F lounge in SYD around 2004 or before and (sir now but not then) Peter Jackson was walking around in shorts and no shoes and I thought it looked very poor.

One thing is that the airport wont be operating for many years and if we don't start planing/building it now it will be too late. Also a lot of cities have two or more airports and the sky doesn't fall in. If we don't move forward now it will be too late. If you need to travel to the CBD there...

Am I correct that with the new earning after 1st July, the SCs earned on a SYD-LHR is the same as SYD-DXB-LHR? I guess it isn't as bad as I first thought.

Am I correct that I dont need my Velocity number in my Air NZ flight booking (NZ flight number) trans tasmin and can just show my Velocity Platinum card to get lounge access in SYD and AKL, I want to credit the flight to another *A airline.

Ok what time do other airlines using the same aircraft state as their flight time Sydney-Melbourne? Maybe congestion has cause flight times to change or maybe other airlines are being unrealistic if they state shorter times.

I got my Diamond card ( exp. March 2015) in the mail last month so I would be very surprised.

Never had island dining offered but my flights are usually before 6pm. I usually sit at the tables in J lounge with power points that have cake on them but maybe too early.

I am WP with both Qantas and Virgin until at least mid 2015 and Qantas LTG. I will see how things pan out with my travel plans and decide later in the year where my "loyalties" lie. I would have though with the current competition between airlines Qantas would be trying to win customers not...

So I guess if you transit and change flight numbers you still get two lots of points.

Re-qualified last week as Platinum with about 6 months to go and got DSC only offer. Double points would have got me more excited ( though not much) as I don't really have anyone to give partner gold/platinum to (sadly).

At Auckland Airport Novatel on the weekend and was charged a payment guarantee on arrival. I pointed out that as a platinum I should not pay a guarantee and was told that that was only for their regular customers. I did ask for an upgrade and she said I can do that, so that was OK. In my room I...

I flew back on Friday 3pm PER-SYD and I only saw them offered to three customers, cabin was 80% full in J. I though it was strange but didn't want one so didn't ask. Was either XFA or XFB based on the poor seats and Video system.

I feel better about lifetime Gold if QANTAS is still around them. May be Farstar the 200th can still use my lifetime gold.

i transited SYD-SCL-LIM on QF27 then LAN and they couldn't check the bags through as I had already checked in with LAN to get my seat selection. At SCL there is a transfer desk before immigration and they transfered my bags and gave me my boarding passes to LIM without me passing through...

Of the last 6 or so domestic flights with Priority tags my baggage has generally came out near last.

If they are paid the same as VA/JQ/TT then that is fair. Whether that is more less than now I don't personally know.
