Your bags will probably be tagged to Adelaide if all flights are on the same reservation. But since Perth to Adelaide will be a domestic flight, you'll need to collect your bags in Perth, go through customs with them, and re-check them. You don't mention which airlines you're flying – that will...

For what it's worth, flighthacks now is reporting the same information: https://flighthacks.com.au/qantas-removes-guest-lounge-access/ So I guess it's a matter of interpretation of these new rules and whether QF needs to refine/clarify the rules around Qantas Club flying JQ international and...

https://www.pointhacks.com.au/news/qantas-changes-domestic-international-lounge-access-rules-2023/ A poll at the bottom of the article shows around 78% of respondents (around 170 so far) don't mind the removal of the domestic lounge access for non-travellers. Also on the PH Facebook page, one...

Where's everyone getting this conclusion from? I'm under the assumption that VA Platinum on a VA international flight MEL-DPS currently has no lounge access, based on the website info. SQ lounge access is only before SQ-operated flights MEL-SIN.

I was at KLIA last weekend. Yes, the transfer train (Aerotrain) between the satellite pier (C-gates) and the main contact pier is still down, so passengers need to catch a bus. Immigration, luggage pick-up and customs are done at the main contact pier. As most MH international flights land at...

Ooh I stand corrected. Good to know!

Unfortunately, that's still a no. AirAsia flights depart from a completely separate terminal to the one you arrive on with Malaysia Airlines. There is no physical way to get to the MH lounge once you've cleared security for the AirAsia X flight. Even if there was, the lounge would not let you in...

No, there is no on-arrival access. When you clear customs and get your hold bag, you won't be able to re-enter the KLIA terminal airside where the lounge is. You'll need to make your way to KLIA2 – a separate terminal on the other side of the airfield – and check-in for AirAsiaX there. You may...

I think if you request Business, they'll also give you the option to request PE as a backup in the same 'transaction'. Also choose airport upgrade for a higher chance.

1) If the new fees and taxes is lower, then yes you can get a refund. 2) You will need to pay the 5,000 pt change fee regardless. It's the phone assistance fee you can waive off because it can't be done online. (Changes that are possible to do online are still charged the 5,000 point fee). 3)...

List of upcoming new lounges and upgrades (as per: Qantas fires up $100M lounge upgrade plan including new London First lounge - Point Hacks) London First Lounge: new space (subject to agreement with Heathrow and UK officials), expected to open in late 2025. Hong Kong International Lounge...

Agree with stm1sydney - the official wording has always been "no points and SCs on these flights". I know many people have gotten them before, but that's more of a stroke of luck than an intentional program decision. The fares are based on Economy 'T' cash fare, not reward seat availability.

Terrible change. I've got flights next week on QR going to the Middle East in Economy and back in First, booked with Qantas Points back when this wasn't a problem. Hope there are no changes that require re-ticketing :(

The media event was postponed on Tuesday afternoon, alongside the official announcement.

Noise-cancelling headphones block ambient sound (like engine noise) very well. High-pitched sounds like babies crying are pretty much impossible to block – even with earplugs!

I don't mind the points, but I would prefer if the status credits could be credited in my new membership year, as I have already retained Platinum this year.

I recently got the SMS, but I don't want to redeem the points/SCs until after 1 March 2023 so the SCs go to my new Velocity membership year. Unfortunately, my SMS doesn't specify when the link expires. It says "To redeem, click the link before the expiry date of shortly: <link>, enter your...

All referral links say the referee must not have held an Amex product in the last 18 months.

Same, was getting 325K yesterday. Maybe they nerfed it.

Anyone know how the process works for nominating the Priority Pass benefit for a supplementary cardholder? For example, if there are two additional card members, how do I nominate who it goes to? Thanks :)
