    Denied Entry to QF 1st Lounge Singapore

    Can confirm. Marhaba SIN is actually not that bad, it's usually pretty quiet and the F&B wasn't terrible when I last went.

    Qantas to Introduce Group Boarding and Bag Tracking

    No group boarding on ex DPS flight on Thursday. Boarding was an absolute mess, as usual.

    Denied Entry to QF 1st Lounge Singapore

    I can't imagine they would turn you away on a QF code

    Amex Platinum $200 "Dining credit" towards a list of Global Restaurants

    Yes, but anything further they order during the reservation (drinks etc) will be charged back to your card. In short don't go booking for people you don't trust to pay you back.

    Denied Entry to QF 1st Lounge Singapore

    I don't think they'd "have to" provide an alternative so long as they allow OWEs flying QF Y into the F lounge, which it sounds like they are already doing. It's OWEs flying on non QF codes that are getting turned away.

    ExpertFlyer isn't seeing any I fares loaded for ADLSYD 03JUN25. It might be an NDC only fare https://www.qantas.com/agencyconnect/au/en/agency-news/agency-news-november-24/new-distribution-model-for-travel-agents-to-access-qantas-content.html

    Changes to how you use your $450 Travel Credit

    I understand the rationale. The problem is that a potential new customer has no visibility of Amex Travel pricing before applying for the card. I'm sure the fineprint mentions pricing may different, and a 10-20% difference might be reasonable, but the example in this thread is egregious...

    Qantas Points Cracker promotion

    I took a screenshot of some T&C before pulling the cracker. From the instant wins (minor prize draw) the best prize is probably the 5k points followed by the 10 SC and/or $5 Uber voucher if you don't need the SC. The top prize in the major draw is two return economy flights to Singapore, 5...

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    Through a series of lucky events, this imposter has made it to the lofty heights of P1 off the back of a DSC family holiday (i.e. status run) to Bali. I ended my last membership year with around 2600 SC, and wasn't expecting Status Hold to carry those SC over and give me a stab at P1. I also...

    Accor Plus Membership Discussion

    Same boat here. Purchased 1 Dec but still no sign. Having them land in Jan works marginally better for me so I haven't chased yet.

    Minimum connection time Sydney?

    JL51 regularly leaves 30+ minutes late but still arrives before the scheduled arrival time. I don't think it's a lost cause just yet.

    80 mins SYD international connection

    No chance getting any airline to bend on MCT. If you want to take the risk, book separately and fly without protection from a misconnect. Personally I think that would be nuts, QF104 has an on-time performance of just 41% with an average 41m delay.
