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

    This is what doesn't make sense about this particular FAQ. We all know it's the PNR creation date and when the PNR creation date is outside of this seven-odd day window, it's no dice, yet the FAQ says something very different (the opposite, in fact).

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

    I'll get in before another person asks, again, without reading the thread. Yes, subject to the other conditions, double status credits do apply to: Flights on Alliance. Flights on the QF-coded flights operated by Finnair to and from SYD (i.e. QF291, 292, 295, 296). Flights purchased using the...

    Checked luggage with overnight connection QF code share EK metal

    I got two different answers (surprise, surprise) from two different Suva agents, but did find this: Help and Support | Qantas.

    Checked luggage with overnight connection QF code share EK metal

    Travelling on one Qantas ticket travelling Qantas only, arriving circa 11.30pm into MEL on a domestic flight, connecting the next day circa 6pm to an international flight. Would bags need to be collected in MEL late night and re-checked, or could they be checked all the way through to the...

    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic Reward seats?

    Is "Confirmed" enough? There's plenty of examples of bookings in FF profiles showing that, but that's not actually the case. I had a case a good 19 months ago where an incompetent agent (i.e. offshore) requested a seat. It showed in my booking as being in D and "Confirmed", which of course it...

    Correct. There's no good option here. My understanding is yes, you will need to book a fare in at least the same fare category or higher. As far as I know, you can book into business or first, too, which can work out perfectly well.

    Purchased a Qantas Flex fare but when I requested a refund they insist it is "Red-E Deal"

    While we wait to hear back from RobStrong on the dispute, I'm curious about the rebooking conditions on Qantas "flex" fares, both domestic and international. The rules of the fare I'm looking at state: I understand this to be changes can be made free of charge but, of course, any fare...

    Qantas boosts international capacity, wet lease Finnair aircraft

    That's pathetic. You didn't enter into a contract with Finnair, the same way you a passenger doesn't contract with Menzies to handle their bag.

    Air Canada must honour refund policy invented by its AI chatbot

    It's ridiculous the passenger even had to escalate the matter beyond Air Canada. If Air Canada wants to get away with provided completely inaccurate information, it should just open a call centre in Manila, Cape Town or Suva. Actually, I think it's a reason to engage with chat. You might get...

    Does anyone have any idea what QF780 is doing tonight?

    I'm confused as to why this flight isn't leading the news with headlines like 'Qantas passengers describe flight from hell' and 'Hundreds of Qantas passengers inconvenienced by faulty A380'.

    Credit Card Offers HSBC Star Alliance Credit Card: Fast-Track to Star Alliance Gold Status

    As I've noted upthread, I didn't come anywhere close to spending the ridiculous $60K in my first year to secure Aeroplan Gold in year two. However, in January this year (which was 12 months after applying), the expiry of my Gold status on the Aeroplan website changed from 12/24 (which is what...
