    Changes to flight times require traveller to accept but no communication issued + min connection in SYD

    Is it all one ticket ? If so I would leave it as SYD-MEL is not so critical and Qantas should put you on a later flight if the connection time falls apart due to late arrival into SYD etc. Having said that it will be a tight connection.

    Cancelling one part of a JAL ticket booked with Classic Rewards

    Something to consider, if JAL use a B787 between HND and SYD, economy class seats are more comfortable than other airline B787's as JAL have 8 seats across as opposed to the more common 9 seats.

    Cancelling one part of a JAL ticket booked with Classic Rewards

    Yes I agree you might lose J class Tokyo-Syd and fly Y on that sector. I guess you will just have to weigh that up with flying out of Paris or Helsinki depending on your personal circumstances. Finland and France are rather distant from each other ! You could sound out call centre and ask if...

    Qantas Call Centre Long Wait Times

    The sad thing with all this it should not matter whether the Qantas call centre person is based in Hobart, Cape Town, Manilla or Timbuktu. They all work for Qantas whether on staff or contract or via a third party provider. Training and skill set should all be the same……

    Selecting "I'm travelling for xx_xx" affects the points earned

    Hi I am not really following this nor do I have my own business hence I do not have an ABN.

What about award seat bookings ...

    Why would Qantas cancel Broome to Melbourne ?

    Hi my family and I were flying BME-MEL direct on 30 September. This date happens to coincide with the tail end of Victorian school holidays so I would assume there was healthy demand.

    Qantas Awards Flights on JAL. One leg no longer for sale but not cancelled. Seeking advice please

    While I agree March 2023 is a long way out, myself and others also thought travelling in 2022 was a long way out when we booked flights via Japan in 2021. It all fell to pieces due to Japan not opening up . The Japanese xenophobic attitude to foreigners in the current covid environment is still...
