AJ leaves with his reputation in tatters but his bonus intact. Qantas meanwhile is on the nose with customers, politicians, the competition regulator and has got about 10 years of capex to catch up on. At least AJ's bank manager is happy.

If the Greens had their way, everyone wanting to fly overseas would need to go into a national ballot with only a limited number of flights/seats each year. Those lucky enough to win the ballot would then need to plant the equivalent number of trees to offset the emissions from their flight...

Alan Joyce has done a great job running Qantas the "company", but a terrible job at running Qantas the airline. As a shareholder, you're over the moon, as a customer, not so much. When you have a strangehold on the lucrative domestic market and operating in an international market with pent up...

The fast food joints at KLIA will probably do a roaring trade 😆

Same reason why SQ doesn't have an late departure out of SYD (i.e past 10pm), a very inconvenient arrival time into SIN. SQ used to have a SYD-CBR-SIN service which left SYD around 10pm and got into SIN around ~5am, which made it ok for early morning SQ connections, but without the extra...

Thanks pjm99au, was hoping to upgrade to J but looks out I'm outta luck.

Would I be able to get a refresher for CX 110 for tomorrow? Thanks again !

Hi team, Would someone be able to check loading for CX110 SYD-HKG on 17/8/23? Thanks

Rex is good at making money on subsidised monopoly routes. The moment competition comes along, John Sharp is rolled out in front of the media to whinge and sling mud at the competition. When the majority of airlines are making healthy profits in the current environment of reduced capacity, high...

Well SQ's latest catchphrase is "welcome to world class", so I intend to hold them to account on that one ;) I flew SQ J SIN-HKT in 2022 and they were operating their new 737 maxes then on the route which is a much better J product than the 738's and that was what I was comparing to.

When are you flying in? I flew on SQ736 in February (which seems like the same flight you're on) and we actually got a remote stand on arrival, so that meant a bus to the main terminal, so that is a potential wildcard to take into account. Immigration lines were non-existent thank goodness...

If it is 3%, you're better off copping the foreign ATM operator fee and using the ING card in certain circumstances (depends on how much you're withdrawing and how much the ATM fee is).

Well loads of ING customers simply transfer in $1,000 and then instantly transfer out, they then make 5 tap and go transactions that are minimal in value to meet the requirements. At the same time, they hold minimal savings with ING and hold no other banking products with ING, but are able to...

Macquarie is 4.8% for the first 4 months, then reverts back to 4.00%. Citi is only 4.25% and is also only a 4 months intro rate before reverting back to 3.85%.

Thanks, that makes sense. I'll need to be creative with my existing booking !

Won't be AJ's problem when he jets off into the sunset having milked a fat cat salary over the years and cashed in all of his Qantas shares. When the next CEO reports lower profits ( higher depreciation and lower revenue from people leaving in droves) and higher debts (to fund fleet capex)...

Hi all, just wanted to confirm a Krisflyer redemption query with our resident guru's. I originally made a redemption booking in September 2022 for travel in September 2023. I now want to change the travel date to January 2024. When I rang Krisflyer, the agent said this was not possible as the...

It would've been a A350, the only 777 service is SQ212 in the morning.

Is there a "soft" landing from Star Alliance Gold after the first year (i.e. Silver) or do you get an instant downgrade to having no status?
