    Same here. If not dynamic pricing, at least peak period pricing?

    The Velocity tier bonus points do get retro-credited IIRC but that might require a call to their cc

    Free Seventh “free stuff” 2019 -"VA Companion Gold" - the gift of gold

    A very generous offer. Not sure if this’d qualify but I’m just a CX Silver, flying regularly between AUS and Asia via HKG. Would appreciate the opportunity to see if the grass is any greener on the VA side. Favourite destination is the Lake Biwa Marriott featuring an onsen bath right by the...

    20,000 Woolworths rewards points with a pet insurance policy

    Massive thanks to Dr Ralph for bringing this up. Got over 100k of QF points through this. Seems like they’re coughing up 20k of woolworths points per member as compensation to me. Just out of interest did anyone tried to claim points on the policies cancelled within cooling period?:p

    How much is fair for a 7 hour delay?

    Perhaps the point here is the lack of proactiveness to reacommodate their pax on alternative flights to get them to their destinations quicker, and the lack of “service recovery”. The general feeling on the ground was the lack of willingness to help from the QF staff. Many pax I talked to ended...

    How much is fair for a 7 hour delay?

    Quite confident that’s not the case as I was guested into the F lounge that day and my Plat friend wasn’t able to get onto that flight too, and the lounge host did mention CX’s not taking any pax due to the short timeframe

    How much is fair for a 7 hour delay?

    Just OW Ruby really unfortunately. Travel Insurance didn't cover anything other than expenses up to $250. It's not really that much of a major impact, just in this unfortunate case, the trip was already short and it was a bummer how the delay has shortened it even further (plus the redeye meant...

    How much is fair for a 7 hour delay?

    That’s really a fleet planning issue. Had they not have such a complex fleet, it would’ve been a much simpler task to have spare crew and A/C. QF could’ve subbed in a 332 vs a 333 in this instance too. OTOH some scheduled maintenance couldve been defered within operational safety requirements...

    How much is fair for a 7 hour delay?

    From the info I was given, there was a faulty chamber on the aircraft. I’m not suggesting that they could’ve predicted the fix wouldn’t have worked, or the delay wouldn’t have happened, but rather their lack of proactiveness to protect their pax onto alternative flights when the delay is likely...

    How much is fair for a 7 hour delay?

    Hello all, Was recently on an extensively delayed QFi service (QF117). The A/C was on the inbound QF118 the previous day, so had a 4 hour turnaround time in SYD. The flight was originally delayed for 2 hours at ~1500 (from 1550 to 1750), citing engineering issue. At this point the CX flight...

    20,000 Woolworths rewards points with a pet insurance policy

    Reporting good news. Second serving of 20K points posted for my 2nd policy on the same account. The lady on the cancellation line the other day mentioned phone call is necessary to cancel policies, although I suspect with some insistence an email might get it sorted. OTOH, she also mentioned...
