This happened to +1 and the FA said it was due to the last passenger spilling water. The FAs tried to dry it with towels with only partial success and apparently properly doing it would need engineering and potentially delaying the whole flight! Resolved in this case by +1 being moved to...

I've read numerous reports of a lag before status drops. However, +1 ended SG on 30 Nov, and the very next day 1 Dec the status was already showing PS. No time wasted there. YMMV

Received it too. Lots of pages between the front cover and the start of the 'content,' being prime ad real estate.

I don't believe stacking is possible and don't remember reading stories here that it has been - you get the one best allowance of whatever you're entitled to but not the other allowances in addition. If I were flying F as a Platinum, I'd still only be able to take one guest into the F lounge...

Correct. I've booked many status runs originating ex DPS and AKL, which have earned the DSC.

I had a poke and can't find it any more either. There used to be a section to tick up to three or so interests - I didn't pick things like golf as I have no interest in that. Now there doesn't seem to be a place to nominate preferences, so everyone will get invites to the same events like...

That’s a new one, I thought QF had systems to ensure only the person flying could have their FF details on, sounds like an error (possibly in your favour, unless your mum is chasing points/SCs). Maybe it had to do with your booking via the VIP team rather than yourself online? Maybe they...

Pilots, if you were in charge of designing the sim sessions, what if anything would you change about them - do they sufficiently train in dealing with serious problems or are they inherently limited? Also, reading the sims are heavily booked and in use 24/7... does that inadvertently or...

It would be remiss not to recommend he sign up for a QFF account for free anyway - plenty of ways to earn points for free or with no extra spend, and get on the points bandwagon!

Pity none of our resident P1s seemed to get an invite to or report on this event?

Seeing and being served up Pat & Stick's ice cream sandwich in First seems really low rent. Something like cheesecake or chocolate cake would be much classier. I am an ice cream tragic so even vanilla bean ice cream (maybe with hot fudge) would be more fitting than something you have to unwrap...

Might be the triple points instead, or the joke?

I'm guessing indefinitely as it seems to yield nice sales spikes for QF and as is often said, status doesn't really cost them much to hand out unless pax are actually flying and using the benefits. They don't appear too perturbed about lounge overcrowding - especially when there's the odd QC...

Definitely an anti-service and severe waste of time if the escort wastes your time, I'd be so frustrated (I'm not that big a DYKWIA). We actually did get an escort arriving into DEL but it blurred because the first thing they said was my suitcase hadn't made it onboard, so my first thought...

As OP mentioned, there used to be hot towels in domestic J... and glasses of water or strawberryapple juice... and Fin Review and other newspapers...

Ah interesting. It wasn't far at all and the wait at immigration was minimal even if they could cut queues for us which they couldn't. While the DYKWIA factor is high this would be valuable only if they have the power to bring us to the front of immigration and security queues at the worst...

Flew Y (exit row) MEL-DEL recently. Really good service - we were Consistently™ served first, ahead of other Y passengers. Handwritten card, pyjamas, bottle of wine and other gifts offered and mostly gratefully accepted. Flew J back DEL-MEL. At check-in at DEL, we were escorted from the...

I was trying to remember a humble story about a meal but couldn't - I wish I could say my most memorable meal was a simple mushy mess in Y, memorable only because it was my first ever flight or first flight alone or coming home after being desperately homesick, but honestly I can't remember...

The official answer is here: https://www.qantas.com/au/en/frequent-flyer/use-points/classic-upgrade-rewards.html Unofficially, you'll get an idea by going through the below thread. In my experience (as a P1), my upgrades have consistently come through 27 hours before the scheduled flight...

I flew international J a few days ago and there were no hot towels.
