    Flex option - refundable or not??

    I'm confused by fare descriptions I'm seeing on the ANZ website...or perhaps I'm not confused and just don't quite believe what I'm seeing. I see a fare that looks like this: Smart Saver (not refundable) I then add this in: But the 'Find out what's included' link shows: But..the new...

    VA no longer issuing credits to travelbank (or anywhere else)

    Sydney: No more through check of bags e.g. QF > BA or QF > QR?

    I've been following a Facebook group full of Brits trying to navigate their way around flight cancellations and find a way home.
