    The Qantas Newbie Questions Thread

    Thanks for the information! Regarding the flight LHR > SPU. No matter what I put into the Qantas website it will not give me flights to SPU but if I put ZAG it will. I'm not sure I understand what you mean with the multi-city ticket? I can put LHR > ZAG on a different day with the multi city...

    Qatar denied extra capacity into Australia

    Qantas to Introduce Group Boarding and Bag Tracking

    I’ll need to see it in practice but the boarding groups seem a bit confusing (the actual groups, not the process) why not name them 1-6? (Priority, then 1, then 2a/b seems complicated).
