    Points Club - $50 Off Domestic Return Flight Nov 1 - Jun 30, Book by 17th Sep

    I would not be surprised at all if it does. I only have this one domestic flight that I need to book, so I may as well book it now. No loss either way! Of course, the other question is “just because I don’t need to fly, doesn’t mean I cant book another holiday”…

    Points Club - $50 Off Domestic Return Flight Nov 1 - Jun 30, Book by 17th Sep

    Just in time! I’ve been meaning to book a SYD-MEL flight for the beginning of next year, and I just missed the previous sale. $50 off brings it back down to the sale price.

    Why does Qantas not entertain an overnight flight from Sydney to Singapore?

    MH140 departs SYD 2210 and arrives KUL 0500. SYD-KUL is around 30-40 mins longer than SYD-SIN, and 5am is already a very early departure. During summer, the same flight would arrive an hour earlier, so around a 3.30-4am arrival. Although Changi is open 24h, I don’t think a 3/4am arrival...

    B789 - worst ever Qantas economy long haul Seats

    That’s a fair point. I suppose I lean towards the 787 Y seats because I’m skinny and 6’, with disproportionately long legs. So I value the extra pitch over the extra width.

    B789 - worst ever Qantas economy long haul Seats

    Surprisingly, I prefer the Y seats on the 787 over the rest of QF’s international fleet. They are narrower, and I can definitely feel the difference in width. However, I find the slightly extra legroom and the better foot-net much nicer to sleep in. Additionally, I do feel that the lower...

    JL fare bucket for QF SC earn

    Interesting! I’m not disagreeing with you - I also only have anecdotal evidence. I wonder if this could be a situation where JMB and QF both treat these at-checkin upgrades differently. Either way, if only there were proper guidelines as to what flights earn SCs!

    JL fare bucket for QF SC earn

    I think at-checkin upgrades on JL Dom are process as the original ticketed class for SC earn.

    JL fare bucket for QF SC earn

    If I'm not mistaken, JL no longer shows fare classes for domestic tickets after they revised their domestic fare structure. I believe the JL fare buckets do not correspond to specific fare classes. For example J class may sometimes earn at QF Economy rates. Logically, JL domestic first should...

    QF81 - A380 on Saturdays from Jul 15

    Ah, emulating QF1, I see

    Anyone heard that Qantas are replacing check-in with self check?

    QF systems really do not like my passport. Every time I fly internationally, I need someone to manually check me in. If not for that, I'd be happy to self check-in, as it usually moves quicker anyway. I don't think that check-in kiosks are a bad idea, provided that they are seamless to use. 10...

    Qantas double status credits OR double points offer [book 23-28 March 2023]

    Thanks for the suggestion! I’ve shot them an email. I was hoping for an over the phone fix but I should have just emailed from the start.

    Qantas double status credits OR double points offer [book 23-28 March 2023]

    After a few calls with different agents, this is my best guess to what will happen (and anyone else who's in the same boat): 1. Qantas will not credit the DSCs owed until the 8 week period is up, because as far as they can tell I never boarded the original flight (DSCs only apply if you board...

    Qantas double status credits OR double points offer [book 23-28 March 2023]

    Yep, all my DSCs have been coming through within 48 hours too. I have a feeling Qantas needs to manually credit DSCs for my original routing, but call centre staff insist “your DSCs will come through in 8 weeks”

    Qantas double status credits OR double points offer [book 23-28 March 2023]

    Will Qantas automatically award DSCs for a flight that was eligible but had Points/SCs claimed via “find missing points”? Qantas moved a leg on one of my bookings that was eligible for DSCs. They (incorrectly) credited SCs for the new leg (which earned 0 SCs) rather than the old leg. I called...

    QF A330 long haul in whY

    Yep, I agree. I slept really well on the 787 because of the foot nets (I’m 183cm and have disproportionately long legs). The pitch on the 333 is a little too short for me, so I cannot stretch all the way out. Even so, I’m still a lot more comfortable than on the domestic 332 seats that don’t...

    Check in Syd international - all day?

    I was allowed to attempt check-in at the J counter at around 8am for a 3pm QF1 departure at the beginning of this month. Unfortunately I couldn’t check-in for a different reason (my passport always causes problems for QF) so I didn’t get to the bag drop stage 😅

    Slow posting of QFF points and SCs after a JQ flight
