Aaah, yes ... I was on an EK flight, in a full Business cabin, from Dubai to Singapore after one of my regular, long, tiring tasks in deepest, darkest, and shortly after dinner I had drifted into the welcoming arms of Morpheus ... upon waking some time later I noted several empty seats around...

"provider not up to scratch", hey ... I'd hazard a guess that someone hit the 'selective delete' button to gauge the level of outrage! Interesting that the US-destination pax's drivers/service was so inferior to the Europe-destinations', moreso as the same company provides an excellent service...

Re: No more QF chauffer drive to LAX and DFW G'Day all; further to my earlier posts re cancellation of CD on flights home to BNE-LAX 6Jul, and DFW-BNE to home 9Aug, and my discussions w/QF CSA, I received the promised call-back last Friday after the 'decision from above', and have been approved...

Re: No more QF chauffer drive to LAX and DFW Markis10, thanks for the correction ... most interesting that Customer Service didn't think there was. But, having said that, and QF having to provide parity with EK, they'd need to have the facility to offer, eh! Re others' comments about 'style...

Re: No more QF chauffer drive to LAX and DFW Call came ... CD definitely cancelled, notwithstanding having booked in Jan for forward leg to BNE Intl depart 6Jul, and return/pickup BNE 9Aug. Apologetic, and offered 10k pts, for total booking; discussed 'other options', as home-airport ~$100...

Re: No more QF chauffer drive to LAX and DFW Red Roo, thanks for shedding some light on this, a matter of some "interest", for quite a few travellers. As I've mentioned in a couple of previous posts, I have flights booked BNE-LAX departing 6JUL, against which CD bookings were made at time of...

Re: No more QF chauffer drive to LAX and DFW As I have posted elsewhere: Yair, well, for the Oz-USA legs QF still seems to have edge altho' the front-end/upstairs hedonism level seems to be diminishing, and on the strength of that, and seeing as how I'm spending my $$$s for the bucket-trip to...

Yair, well, for the Oz-USA legs QF still seems to have edge altho' the front-end/upstairs hedonism level seems to be diminishing, and on the strength of that, and seeing as how I'm spending my $$$s for the bucket-trip to Europe next year, and most things being equal, Emirates' 'frames'd be...

Re: No more QF chauffer drive to LAX and DFW Most interesting, and damned annoying ... having made a booking early Jan, in J, for initially 13Jul QF8/BNE-SYD, QF7 SYD-DFW, to RTA 7Aug QF8 DFW-BNE, which I then brought forward to depart BNE 6Jul, but via LAX, which is still showing "chauffeur...

Amusing if you are interested in percentages: after arriving from Oz, travelling DFW-JAX twice in the last 6 months on AA's last flight out [AA2296], with 1845 scheduled departure, I've achieved 100% success in having delayed departures, with 'amusing', if you believe them, excuses: 29Sep13 ~...

Unfortunately, with QF following the lead of most other airlines' programmes, this type of "amendment" will probably stay pretty much the way it's been slipped-in; that said, having been a a loyal QC member for over twenty years, and now not travelling as much, having the QC-entitled access...

Her spin-doctors probably thought it was the epitome of post-apocalyptic Doom 'n Gloom, as in Mad Max, and used it thinking it was MFP HQ, which was really Spotswood Pumping Station. That said, 1. Battersea produced power from coal, and 2. Spotswood pumped poop, so you've got an end result...

Riiiiight! I think the expression "flash as a rat with a gold tooth" is pertinent - application process: Applied for QF Gold match 2nd Sept, at 0733h, Confirmation of application received 2nd Sept, at 0735h, and Status allocated as Gold overnight ie 12th/13th Sept. Can't complain about that -...

Well now, MatF's "status match" with nil points gives me a good feeling that mine will appear, eventually. I had 12k+ points deleted due to nil activity since 2008, so hopefully my QF Gold > Va Gold is somewhere in the ether - albeit only applying a week ago! Waiting, waiting ...

Re: Announcing our New Velocity Frequent Flyer Program G'Day all; interesting thread, and keenly awaiting "mine": Date and time of Status Match Application dispatch: Fri 02SEP/0733h [however, my measly 12k-odd Velocity points had been "cancelled" in July this year due to nil activity for three...

Good One! Mine's from the surname acronym, altho' I am a longtime member of the AOOB, so it sits quite well there also [[email protected]]. Regards, OB

G'Day all; I've been registered, and lurking, for a while and thought I better post something ... something. I've found the content and quality of posts most informative, and have been able to glean the odd bit of good gen; thanks to all. OBie
