    Sydney Airport to CBD $60 Flat Rate Taxi Fares

    Good on you for standing your ground and fighting. I didn't before and shudder to think about how many times I've been ripped off - IME Sydney has been the worst with taxis anywhere.

    SYD FCL Flight display board inoperative

    I'm amused they have a FAQ justifying the $5999 price! If one of that size costs so much imagine how much QF's cost :oops:

    Have you accidentally booked the wrong flight?

    Sometimes having someone else organise my travel is ‘inevitable’ so I always, always carefully check when I get the booking back. Complaints of “I live in SYD, why would you book me a flight to SYD” and “Why would you book me me for such a short/long stay” don’t make a jot of difference. I know...

    Qantas Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    Loadings are J1 C0 D0 I0 U0 - while I've read reports of people getting that rejection message and still being upgraded at the gate, my guess (I'm unskilled in interpreting loadings) is it won't happen.

    Cathay now also bans OW FF from pre-selecting seats

    We got op ups as OWE, surprised as I thought they'd have more of their own elites to prioritise. You can get lucky.

    Your Qantas year in review (2025)

    Top 10% of flyers for me... I'm dropping down from P1 soon so not surprising. (Cue the frequent flyers saying there are still nine flying days left in the year!)

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    You did submit a competition entry didn’t you?

    MEL - how busy will it be on Boxing Day?

    Although the peak should have passed, you won’t find it a ghost town. Many people are still beginning their summer/northern winter holidays and not all of them are going to the cricket.

    Does MEL T2 still require LAGs to be in plastic bags?

    No. Everything (including the allowed LAGs, laptops and tablets) can stay in bags.

    Aussie passport cost increases again!

    It’s probably an ‘easy’ source of revenue - the government (of any persuasion) will say if you want a passport you can afford a holiday or work pays for it. Even when it’s not that simple.

    Scams like these

    Complimentary/Operational Upgrades on Oneworld flights

    Yes we received an upgrade to J on MH MEL-KUL when I was QF gold. I was shocked and happy, given I wasn’t an MH elite and there were two of us. I assume it was an op up.

    Old Q Tags available at lounges

    Good move handing them out imho, some really value them and otherwise QF could have just wasted throwing them away.

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    I like that theory, I also seem to have two tracking numbers. And yes I know the ROI on retaining P1 versus a set of pyjamas that’d be easily bettered by something from Kmart but it’s all about the status chase for me, in my last year of P1.

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    I feel sorry for FAs on the frontline, especially if their culture is associated with ‘the customer is always right.’ Surprised he also didn’t demand a bear… or a cake with a bear coming out of it…
