    Claim Process

    The PDS will cover all of this and without it, no one on here can really help as we don’t know what cover you purchased. Check your PDS for cancellation due to travelling companion injury which is often covered. But you will need to call to work out what proof you need to claim. If the injury...

    Purchase IHG status points promo

    Only really works if you travel heaps, but then you need fewer points and the price per point is higher…. I think the example in OMAT with a credit card that offers a discount plus he got a lower original quote works out - but my offer is a real easy way to set fire to money. Brekkie doesn’t...

    Qantas Status Credits when flying Malaysia Airlines

    pretty much no, you need to book using a TA and specify the fare codes you’d like a quote on. Buying online, I believe all the fares are priced using the NDC so they take a base fare (Q/N) and apply a surcharge as a “flex”. Only way to buy eligible fares is to wait until the ineligible are sold...

    Purchase IHG status points promo

    Yep. Buy points to retain Diamond. 120,000 cost $1,000 USD. The fewer you bought the higher the price per point. 60,000 cost $725 USD.

    Qantas Business Class meals & menus

    My experience similar. No steak sandwich, no hot options. Settled for a cheese plate.

    1 Status Credit for Every 5000 Points Transferred to Qantas

    Very odd. I got it too and also didn’t register (but did get the original offer - which I ignored).

    Thanks it’s a useful article highlighting all the locations in AUS with PP restaurants. Where I differ with the author is on the definition of “free”.:p

    Emirates Cancels Singapore to Melbourne Flights from 30/3/25

    Based on the rules posted, you were probably booked on the lowest class available in the same cabin so not a mistake. In terms of earning points - On an airline other than the ticketing one, in my experience you probably would, but an 081 ticket on QF metal, I think they’ll work it out and...

    Etiquette Question

    They need to deal with it. Its public transport and you need to accept others will be in your space. This is especially true if you’re fully reclined as there’s almost literally no way out without disrupting others. However, people that yank on the front seat to get up when the front seat is...

    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic Reward seats?

    Thanks is is very useful - especially for those without expertflyer subscriptions. Are there any known limitations? For example, I just did a search for N (which I think is what’s needed for a Y seat release) and ITA had no results but expertflyer says N9. It worked on ITA fine when searching...

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    Yep agreed. Mobile boarding passes are super handy for those willing but for many other people its just a hassle to have them foisted upon them. Lots of people now use Mobile Phone myki cards on public transport in Victoria, often takes them ages to touch-off while blocking the exit for...

    Qantas DSC October 2024 Offer - book by 31/10/24 & fly 1/11/24-19/10/25

    I think HUACA. I’ve had similar issues with a couple of credits recently and both times the call centre was able to redeem the value and ticket the flight per the sale fares, keeping the PNR. Historically the big issue was often the sale “fare” being cheaper than the value of the credit...

    Amex Platinum $200 "Dining credit" towards a list of Global Restaurants

    I believe @sudoer had a Japan option if you plan on travelling there soon as the Japanese restaurants will take the payment upfront.

    Linking two Qantas/AA bookings for Upgrade/Seat Selection

    Oh sorry I didn’t fully read the OP, mine are both QF issued tickets so I assume this is a simpler process and QF linking should ensure WP seat selection?

    Linking two Qantas/AA bookings for Upgrade/Seat Selection

    Hi @madrooster how do I ensure it is done correctly? I’m travelling on separately booked cash PNRs with mother muppet and it would be good for her to get access to the WP seating preferences.
