Update on this - after emailing QFF, I got a reply from them that "After thoroughly reviewing your query, we are delighted to inform you that your status has been upgraded to Platinum". No explanation of why I had already been upgraded to Platinum back in November and why a few days into...

Has this happened to anyone recently? My QFF membership year ends in December, and in 2023 I qualified as Platinum as well as Points Club, both through to 31 December 2024. This morning I have logged in and on both the website and app, I am just showing as Lifetime Gold, with 1,400 SC to...

I crossed over LTG as well as annual Platinum recently while having a shower on board the Emirates A380 in F on a QF codeshare somewhere over Germany. At the rate it took me to get to LTG, I'll be LTP in my mid-100's...

I flew them on a QF codeshare (QF3xx_) 3 days ago and the points and status credits posted today (vs the BKK-SYD flight which posted on landing in SYD).

Does anyone find they are often sending emails like this to the Frequent Flyer Centre regarding BA flights? 'I submitted a claim for this flight (BAxx_ from YYY to ZZZ on 15 Dec), but it was denied due to "Unsuccessful - no match on booking name or flight". I am a little confused as to why...

To quote the late, great George Carlin, 'It’s those sudden unscheduled corn field and housing development stops that seem to interrupt the flow of my day'

Ominously, the "Business" and "Corporate" pages of the website no longer give you a way of applying for them or even calling to apply. It looks like DC is going the way of the dodo.

Thank you - I don't think the agent who booked the ticket would know that but there is one more experienced agent at the branch whom I have used before who may know how to "segment relate my FFN to the applicable flight", otherwise I will try your second approach.

Thank you, I gave the Flight Centre TA both my QF and DL numbers, but all the flights are showing on my booking on the QF app. Should that happen if they allocated the LA flights to the DL FF number? The flights are straight return flights to Brazil. I only check in when I leave Australia and...

If this is answered somewhere else, please direct me there: I have return flights to South America at the end of the year, flights between Australia and Auckland are on QF operated / coded flights, and from AKL onwards and back are LA operated / coded How do I have the QF trans-Tasman flights...

I think this might be at the manager's discretion. Sometimes in the Brisbane lounge, it is so loud you can hear it through headphones. Personally I don't think lounges shouldn't pipe any music in, everyone has devices they can use to listen to music on through earphones. It's a lounge, not a...

I think the problem with that is: - US Diners Club cards are actually Mastercards issued by BMO Montreal. Discover owns the master global Diners Club franchise, but this has excluded Diners Club US and Canada since the 2000's. - For a while now they have not been taking applications for...

If I have no upcoming bookings, my app works fine. But if there are any upcoming bookings, the app seems to frequently need to 'sync' with something at Qantas which freezes what you can do on the screen until it's 'synced'. Can happen several times during a few minutes of having the app on. Am...

This is true regardless of any program you are looking at. The Delta changes are more about altering the level of high status flyers and lounge access: - There were previously much lower thresholds to earn status through credit card spend. This combined with "rollover MQMs" (which meant you...

This was posted by someone in a thread in the Diners Club forum: Just received this for the Linked Diners Card for Citi We want to let you know we will no longer offer the Linked Diners Club® Card from 16 October 2023, and as a result we will be closing your Linked Diners Club Card(s) on...

I think the reason for the high ratio is: - When you choose points, the airline division presumably has to pay the loyalty division for the internal transfer price of those points - When you choose SC, there is no accounting entry in QF's books

That does seem like another nail in the Diners coffin, to go with them no longer offering new personal card applications. If they are choosing to stop that volume of transactions going through the Diners network, it doesn't say much for the value they get from it. They are probably assessing...

That's marked in my calendar for the day I can redeem my 380,000 Ansett Global Rewards points...

Not sure what qualifies as rare, but before the went bust, I flew Royal Tongan Airlines from Apia in Samoa to Nukualofa in Tonga on a Hawker Sidley HS-748. According to Wikipedia, only 12 remain in commercial service. The whole in-flight experience felt like flying in the 1950's.

So to summarise: - A $450 annual fee, while waived in the first year, doesn't get you any additional benefits like flight credits. The complimentary travel insurance and other benefits you can get with fee free HSBC cards like the Premier card. - 3% foreign transaction fee means it does not...
