    Qantas Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    This is an interesting dilemma. You fly a daytime J and "experience" what J has to offer, or you fly a nighttime J and in the ideal world miss what J has to offer as you're fast asleep. It is a little incongruous that perhaps the best value is when you pay for the service that minimises the...

    Woolworths gift card thread

    But the Victorian seniors card gives us 5% off Woolies wish cards.

    Qantas domestic economy meals

    Not really. A premium airline needs to offer more than one option. They have the statistics to know roughly the ratio of what people prefer and if they want to pretend to be a premium airline they need to get to their customers' wants. This thread really needs to be renamed to something that...

    Qantas Delays/Cancellations

    And everyone else on the flight who thought Qantas was getting them home for Christmas

    Jetstar chaos at Sydney

    Not a T2 issue at all. It's one of expectation. You're flying an LCC. You just did the bag management for them for a couple of hours because you haven't paid them to do it for you. What do you expect from an LCC?

    Woolworths gift card thread

    Maybe OT, but Australian Unity has 10% off Woolworth gift card up to $200 per member. Still, $400 gift cards for $360 beats most other offers around for me and Mrs D.

    Proposed Social Media ban for under-16 kids

    Overseas visitors and non-residents have to obey other Australian laws. This is fundamentally no different. But it smacks of politics getting in the way of good government, even if both sides were politicking.

    The Qantas Newbie Questions Thread

    Same one as for everyone else - Qantas Club? If your doing that much flying, the cost per flight of QC should be justifiable.

    Qantas Business Class meals & menus

    I thought the tray may be being used because it makes the main plate look less small.

    Proposed Social Media ban for under-16 kids

    I initially thought the bill wouldn't pass due to the obvious reverse issue that it will be incumbent on the adult population to prove they are over age, but then realised the bill may receive popular support due to the benefit derived from the betrayal of trust that such support may afford...

    Proposed Social Media ban for under-16 kids

    I just tried to provide a theory on where this was going but was redacted for stating the obvious.

    Proposed Social Media ban for under-16 kids

    Of course it's never the parents fault. <redacted>

    Qantas Passenger Discrimination Case

    You might want to check who pays. The NDIS and state schemes provide a lot of support for those in genuine need.

    Qantas to Introduce Group Boarding and Bag Tracking

    But Y wasn't/isn't just one group. I've experienced them boarding by row numbers from the back in about 4 blocks

    Qantas to Introduce Group Boarding and Bag Tracking

    I don't get the fuss. From experience QFi had been boarding in groups for years. They may not be numbered 1,2,3 or A,B,C, but they've boarded by status and row numbers for as long as I can remember.

    The Qantas Newbie Questions Thread

    Unless you deliberately provide a low price that may never get met, doesn't this simply provide the airline with insight into how much over the odds you're prepared to pay?

    Qantas, Woolworths, BP, Ampol, EG Ampol

    Use Petrolspy - there's often up to 50c/l variability in pricing around Melbourne. EG ampol is often the cheapest, but only some of them. Today I drove past 2 EG ampol, one had 91 at 1.59, the other was 2.09. shell and BP really aren't competitive so it's usually EG or metro or apco. The dollar...

    BA changes to meals, CW and F serving Brunch

    I seem to have lost an edit noting an historical view. QF Y and J providing a hot cooked breakfast ( bacon, eggs, beans/spinach, tomatoes + fruit, pastries) was often one of the most appetizing and filling offerings on their longest segments which I generally find the most satisfying of any of...

    BA changes to meals, CW and F serving Brunch

    I'd disagree. QF breakfast has often been the highpoint of QFi catering on their long haul segments (to/from) LHR. Or already as with most things QF, it used to be.
