    Qantas direct and multi city booking in J booking in Y

    I wrote about the issue known with the Perth fares on FT about a month ago when I was looking for work. For some reason the QF search engine will bung you onto Y trans-continental SYD/BNE/MEL - PER but have the trans-Tasman (TT) sector in business. Initially I thought this was because there is...

    QFF Award CX flight confirmed and then wait listed, what are my next steps?

    Did they actually issue an 081 ticket out of curiousity or just an e-ticket confirmation? Personally I still think that this falls to CX rather than QF, they could have chosen to honour the reservation but chose not to.

    QFF Award CX flight confirmed and then wait listed, what are my next steps?

    I mean, you can jump up and down all you want but I really think that you’re going to struggle to get traction from QF in this situation. The way I see this particular situation with the CX flights booked on Friday, is very much like a error fare/mistake fare type situation, rather than the...

    QFF Award CX flight confirmed and then wait listed, what are my next steps?

    the CX issues were not so much related to CX, as much as it may be QF end related when all of us were spamming the search engine. I'm actually wondering if inventory was not keeping up in real time, so some people got 'ticketed' without a confirmed seat. the question is what obligation does...

    Qantas to release thousands of Classic Reward seats in Y, PE, J, F on 24 Feb 2023 around 11am

    So I think the glut of the seat drops were on a few limited routes, mainly LAX / LHR / SIN today What I have noticed is minimal QF seat drops on HND/ICN/HKG in peak seasons (much less so than say LAX/SIN). If seats were released, more often then not they are on JQ. There are a sprinkling of QF...

    greyed out on CX means you can't book I thought? available on that website is if it is a white background isn't it?

    Article: Qantas Auckland Lounge Upgrade: The End of an Era

    The cupboard is actually quite nice when you aren’t flying out in the late afternoon bank of flights. It’s nice in the quiet sense, even though all other facilities leave a lot to be desired. The cupboard will be missed I think haha!

    Article: Qantas Auckland Lounge Upgrade: The End of an Era

    Was also in the QF AKL lounge before QF156 yesterday. The F cupboard was surprisingly quiet so that was nice. The ice cream was half luke warm, half frozen like a rock. Needed to sift a bit to find a decent one. Front desk mentioned possibly “soon” for renovations. Still no clear date it...

    Flexible T&C exclude peak seasons

    so it is clear that they are trying to fleece even more money off people who buy a flexible fare.... CX on the other hand have multiple fare levels filed within each level which makes it even more confusing to compare, but the flex fare class ex-AUS is changes permitted without fee and...

    If my Business Class Classic Rewards Flight is cancelled do Qantas have to put me on another Business class flight?

    At the end of the day, you no-showed your NRT-SFO sector. if it was all one ticket (e.g. MEL-NRT-SFO), then you would have been protected on UA61 where possible. However, as far as JL were concerned, you were flying MEL-NRT. The fact you had an onwards ticket when you ended up delayed was...

    Qantas Horror Story (and AA heroes)

    Though this is the individual’s responsibility, not the airlines responsibility. The haneda - Narita transit remains a LEGAL connection …. If you were a Japanese national. They have sold you a ticket from A to B, you now just can’t get through the itinerary. They have still reticketed you A to...

    Qantas Horror Story (and AA heroes)

    Reading it several times and then actually checking current JAL schedules (even though not accurate possibly for the time the OP was flying) raises one very obvious issue. ORD - NRT throughout november 2022 for example is once daily on a monday or tuesday (I think 2 x M and 2 x T) NRT - MEL is...

    Article: Qantas Expects International Airfares to Come Down

    What you're finding right now is that most airline yield management teams are not releasing seats in the lower buckets in hope that people will just pay whatever price to go from A to B. Corporate people I suspect will just book regardless so availability remains thin as there are less flights...

    Qantas Call Centre Long Wait Times

    While I sympathize with you, qantas have actually done the correct thing in this situation. You bought a return fare and wanted to change your return date. When it was t convenient you opted to flight credit the return sector and this was calculated appropriately (e.g. calculated at total value...

    Is MEL QF F spa open?

    Spa at present is open 5pm - 9pm for QF93. I asked when I first started visiting again in August. Had 3 treatments since since I normally get to the lounge around 1630 for qf157 back to Auckland when it's relatively empty!
