    Qantas rolls out Classic Plus Flight Rewards

    I think a member earlier referred to a Citi analyst's take. Here's an excerpt from an online article in The Australian. And the Mumbrella website (marketing and PR-focused, I think) had this to say:

    Qantas rolls out Classic Plus Flight Rewards

    I also came across this deceptive display in the app today. The header is "Classic Plus 94,900", but look further and it's apparently just a regular award. I'm not a particular fan of Steve Hui from iFLYflat but he did have this to say on LinkedIn today that I thought was interesting: It's...

    Double Status Credits promotion (Book by 27/2/24, travel 28/2/24-14/2/25)

    That's what I thought. So why there's discussion of that in this double status credits promo thread?

    Double Status Credits promotion (Book by 27/2/24, travel 28/2/24-14/2/25)

    Did this current promotion allow QF-coded/EK-operated flights to earn double status credits?

    Qantas rolls out Classic Plus Flight Rewards

    The Sydney Morning Herald article quotes Hudson as saying classic plus "will add four times the amount of access to seats than Classic Rewards with more choice and more destinations". There’s also this from the email to members: “It [classic plus] also means greater availability, so you can fly...

    Thanks, Benjamin for the business lounge guest invite.

    Do you happen to know if you were travelling on the same flight?

    Qantas reciprocal relationship with KLM/Air France (2020 onwards)

    So we've been misled all along. Imagine my surprise! Multiple online articles, however, suggest Qantas is just ******* us once again. Which is entirely consistent with the coughshow that is Qantas.

    SUA at Hyatt Regency Sydney

    Yes, that’s the correct suite. It was the balcony suite (which isn’t actually a suite at all, just a larger room), but was changed to the exec suite a few months ago. It’s my understanding that there are far fewer of these suites than the others, which is probably why the hotel made it that...

    Melbourne pricing. Gouging? Or a glitch?

    Are those prices for the base rooms, though?

    QR/AY J Australia to Helsinki for $5-6k return

    I don't see why a travel agent couldn't book two cash fares. It might be more complicated to book cash for the long part of the journey and combine it with points for the shorter but, again, a decent TA might be able to do it. Depending on where you're located, I can recommend a decent TA who...

    Double Status Credits promotion (Book by 27/2/24, travel 28/2/24-14/2/25)

    Can you just had your name back in your QFF profile?

    "... we'll shortly announce a major investment to improve our Frequent Flyer program"

    I view "WP" as a Qantas thing so, no, I don't have another Qantas program. If you mean Emerald, a very, very early thought is Iberia, which is a tough swallow as I despise the airline (partly because it's the only to ever have lost my bags twice). Maybe Alaska.

    "... we'll shortly announce a major investment to improve our Frequent Flyer program"

    I agree. It's the one remaining benefit that, if it was to disappear or become significantly diminished, I'd seriously consider abandoning QFF and crediting to a different oneworld program instead. Put another way, it's pretty close to being the last benefit keeping me tied to Qantas...

    "... we'll shortly announce a major investment to improve our Frequent Flyer program"

    If this turns out to be the case, there's likely to be a significant negative impact on the ability for platinums to request the release of an award seat.

    Air China considering CX acquisition (potential oneworld exit to *A?)

    Any chance we can talk about the potential Air China acquisition of Cathay and, you know, stop the endless breaching of the rule about political posts which seems to have left in the dust?

    Changes to ANZ Platinum/Black Travel Insurance

    Seems there's lots of 'You must call us' in the updates. A $500 excess for luggage (s. 4.1) is ... excessive.
