Tried signing up the basic with the above code and the 5-day trial and keep getting a 'Failed to process subscription'. Tried both desktop and smartphone, and three different cards. Any help please? EDIT: Oh the promo code is only for the premium…

Welcome to posting and hope you’ll share some more insights - with those numbers of FFPOs per golden triangle flight I’m nowhere near as special as I thought I was!

The pass has been transferred to RisingPhoenix. I wish I could have given out passes to the others, it's not that they didn't deserve them. I'll see how my other passes go, there might be more next year.

If you PM your details you can have it. The T&Cs say to allow at least 24 hours but in my experience it can be done immediately.

Might be a good time for me to finally sign up and look for those rare redemptions!

I have one Qantas General lounge pass to give away which expires Monday 1 December 2025. If you are interested, post in this thread - do not PM. Strong preference for long-standing and contributing members. Once I nominate the recipient, naturally you'll need to provide your surname and QFF #.

Indeed, quite apart from not making bomb jokes, while us frequent flyers might like the jokes and it can take the tension out of the chaos and delays, there are some first-time, nervous or stressed flyers who won't find them funny at all.

The lucky recipient will need to supply their FF number and surname so the system can process and confirm the transfer. As always nice gesture donating a pass here.

It seems to be reported in The Australian but I don’t have a subscription to read the details. Agree with your point re QF.

IMHO It's likely a joke in the vein of the old Virgin flair (which might be backfiring) and if a pilot did actually sleep in it probably wouldn't be admitted as such.

It might depend on the times of your arrival and departure. When I arrived in AKL late one night, transit was closed so I had to clear immigration, go landside and wait a few hours before going airside for my flight back in the morning. @DejaBrew did a bunch of runs there not long ago and might...

I've had no problems accessing the Qatar and Cathay lounges there a couple of months ago flying QF business.

Probably not flying QF somehow, and the CL doesn't provide anytime access any more? Not that I've been in the Beyond lounge there but that's closed down.

Extremely disingenuous for UA to claim a window seat doesn't mean a window. We ought to counter-claim that paying for our tickets doesn't mean we'll pay the full amount, or before the flight, or to UA...

See my post here to someone else who was asking about VA status credits but the same principles apply. https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/threads/status-of-status-credits-for-a-no-show.121374/post-2933650

Just on your original and repeated question, my best guess is SCs are designed as a measure of how much you've actually flown with an airline ('bum in seat'), not how much money you've spent with them as a prospective, good-faith intention to fly. There are some ways to spend money with an...

In general could one of the time pressures be pilots (inappropriately) trying to beat a curfew or running out of hours? I guess pilots are human too and they also hate delays and a late finish just as much as passengers, but the above might be more airline ops specific?

I (P1) and my companions (platinum) rarely get a special welcome, domestic or international, Y or J. More often than not it'll be a quick 'Welcome back' upon boarding and then no special treatment at all.

Darn, would QF release some later on? I'm going to be in the market for a couple too.

In the international arrivals hall yesterday, there was a huge electronic billboard warning people not to accept taxi rides and that they weren't authorised. A terrible first impression (aside from the huge queues for the SmartGate kiosks). I remain convinced they could do something about it but...
