The ticketing robot takes about 5-10 mins to issue a ticket for any carrier. So if it's any longer than that, either the robot rejected it, or there's something else wrong with the PNR.

This loophole exists in the old reservations system that up until recently was the main system in use, however they've mostly transitioned to the new reservations system now and the new reservations system does not exhibit the same behaviour.

EF sprouts a lot of incorrect info these days... I found the AA2165 in question and yes the MCT is 40 mins.

The correct MCT for D to I at LAX on AA to AA, even from the eagle's nest, is 40 mins.

All QF Y fares to Europe haven't allowed DXB stopovers for well over a year now.

This behaviour happens when your FF number is not in the PNR in the correct format.

At other QR tag flight ports, they check everyone's boarding pass as you disembark and if you weren't terminating at that port you were directed to a separate area. I don't believe that they have implemented this at MEL, but they could very well do so.

Urgent ticketing is done by AKL and they are 24/7. Suva/Manila/Cape Town can call them internally if required.

All cabins - the vast majority of pax on QF9/10 originate/terminate in PER on the AU side.

For QF28 to QF5 you'll clear immigration / collect your bag in PER. SYD international transit is open all day so it is permitted. Transiting internationally to QF9 however varies, as this is due to the limited international transit hours at MEL.

If done correctly, it does allow some limited benefits to flow to the other PNRs, eg. accessing preferred seating rows. It's also important for PCV reasons - the linked booking takes on the PCV of the highest PCV pax.

A lot of the TP counts and prices I posted, won't price online. You will need a TA to piece it together.

PCV is influenced by a variety of factors (in no particular order) such as: 1. Meet and assist or wheelchair assistance 2. RBD booked 3. Status 4. Pax in your travel party 5. Commercial value to QF

AA/QR KUL-LAX (5.5k AUD for 1440 TP), BA/JL/QF PER-BKK (5-6k AUD for 1120 TP), AA/QR CGK-PHL/NYC (4-5k AUD for up to 840 TP), DONE3/4/5 ex-Japan (8.5-9.5k AUD for up to 2340 TP), BA/AA/IB/AY ex-Spain to SFO/SMF/LAX (2.5-3k AUD for 720 TP) and UL AUH-CGK (560 TP) all offer some great value.

The regular P1 upgrades from SST stopped roughly when the CBR SST was disbanded. Yes the WP part is new it's only been a thing for the last 2 months maybe?

This same logic also follows through to the complimentary domestic upgrades being handed out to P1/platinum currently. They're processed 6 hours out and is very much route dependent - rare on routes like SYD-MEL but easy on say BNE-MKY where most platinums will be upgraded to J.

Could you please explain to me when in reasonably recent times, has a SG and below been guaranteed access to row 4, let alone a platinum? PCV has always come into play with seating on all QF flights at T-80h which is when a flight moves to departure control. I have some pax on a PER-SYD this...
