Maybe I’ve just been lucky with Qantas this well but rang today about a flight change. DRW-ADL cancelled, wanted to send me via CBR on an e190. Online change button below accept flight changes wasn’t working so begrudgingly rang them. I got through to the Fiji call centre (I think) in 3 rings...

Just thought I’d add to this. At 1905 there was an announcement of “QANTAS flight QF676 to Melbourne is now ready for premium boarding, we now invite J, WP & SG to board using the right hand lane at gate 22. General boarding will commence shortly.” Perhaps someone got the Pre-COVID manual out...

I haven’t completely switched but I’ve gone from only flying Qantas to earning Gold from scratch and actively seeking them out in the last few months. Tbh Silver with either isn’t really fantastic. If I had to pick one I’d go with Qantas solely because I was until 2 weeks ago based in DRW and...

Hi, just wanting some advice. My flight VA1348 (DRW-SYD) has been cancelled (I’d assume). I’ve been moved from a 0135 departure on a Thursday and I’ve been put on VA1356, at 1635 on a Wednesday. This would be fine except I have a connection in Sydney which originally was just 1 hour 40 mins to...

You know you’re a frequent flyer when you know which body part has set the scanner off. Scared the ADL security stuff when the guy asked me to step aside and I just replied “left leg.”

To add some more data points the 3 times I’ve flown from BNE in the last month it’s always been properly working. Never had to line up even when arriving towards the middle of boarding PB line has always been empty. Maybe someone at Brisbane managment took a flight.

Could somebody check: QF745 (SYD-ADL) on September 4th. Am on it but was planning to change to QF747 for longer connection time but noticed it’s dropped off the booking engine so if zeroed out will wait. Many thanks.

QF725 - DRW-ADL SDT:1630 - SFT: 3:35 Check in and security wasn’t bad at all. The QC in Darwin is one of my favourites. The food was pretty good too. Japanese beef with rice, Tom yum soup, some healthy salad and the usual sandwiches etc. Better then any I’ve been to in the other capitals. We...

QF527 - BNE-SYD 1210 departure.

Thank you 😊. It’s my favourite.

QF733 - 08:40 am SYD-ADL Was expecting a quiche of some description.

That’s what I said. Cabin crew stay on the aircraft but the pilots don’t.

Jetstar Cabin crew do but pilots don’t. All Qantas crew stay the night (cabin and coughpit) and I believe same with Virgin.

VA917 - SDT 0800 - SYD-BNE SFT: 01:35 After a few espressos I was ready for my 2nd of 4 flights today and last in J. The flight boarded on time and priority boarding worked well. J was 7/8. The service on this flight was excellent, a little too good and I soon realise it was because there was 5...

VA1348 - SDT 0135 - DRW-SYD SFT: 04:15 Despite the aircraft getting in on time we were delayed, with no announcements. Boarding eventually started at 0150. There was only one lane so I joined the back of a decently long queue. It moved pretty quickly though so can’t complain. Mask wearing was...

Ahhhh that makes sense. Thank you

Was just looking through the app before my flight tomorrow when I spotted the below. I assume probably a glitch. I thought all VA 737-800 had winglets? My other flights are listed as just 737-800.

One small note is that it’s not just flights to DRW that VA have zeroed out. SYD-BNE isn’t available until Monday either. I’m flying on the Virgin Red eye tomorrow so I’ll see if I can ask someone at the airport about the Jetstar cancellations.

If I remember correctly previously blankets and pillows were provide, I don’t think to the international standard though. Similar to that on the 737 services. I’ve done QF843 a few times now and every time I ask and get the same answer.

QF826 - BNE-DRW 26/6 SDT: 2120 - SFT: 4:15 - Seat 2F The food in the lounge was dreadful, no towels available either. Despite the excess of TV’s not one was showing the state of origin on Sunday night. Rookie error asking the bar staff if they could change it to which I got a “No.” Already...
