Where do you want to fly after Sydney and would it be on the same ticket?

Is it possible that Amex Travel doesn’t have access to NDC-only fares? This isn’t unique to Amex Travel, but any travel agent that hasn’t signed up to QF NDC.

Interestingly, the Qantas First Lounge no longer appears on the list of SIN lounges on the Oneworld website: https://www.oneworld.com/airport-lounge-results?location=SIN

Qantas probably doesn't have enough aircraft to actually do this anyway, but if NZ adds a second daily flight I doubt QF would bother to be honest. (I suspect that might also be part of NZ's strategy, as they get decent yields on PER-AKL.)

I’m on my way from CBR. Can report that VA has replaced its usual boarding music with Christmas pop hits.

These are the wines available today in the CBR lounge: I didn’t mind the new sav blanc option.

There is definitely a crew change.

The SYD-POM flight is being suspended from 3 February 2025. Customers being rebooked via BNE. I'm a bit surprised to see this because today's QF191 is almost full. Perhaps the demand is seasonal.

The business class fares are now "properly" live for the VA flights to Doha. PER-DOH-CDG starts from $7,679 return in J.
