    Checked luggage on connection flights - different destination

    For airlines using Amadeus, it's not a limitation. You can absolutely check bag A to somewhere halfway and bag B the whole way.

    SYD all-day check in status?

    All international transfer bags are sent over loose at all AU ports. This is because the bags that typically transfer to international can be going to a wild mix of flights with different aircraft and therefore different ULD (aka "cans") requirements. They also manifest what bags are in what...

    SYD all-day check in status?

    SYD intl hasn't had all day check in post covid unless you are HLO. They can open the flight at any time which is just a phone call to make. The issue is the airport has not re-allowed QF to hog up the baggage make up room, which is why HLO is fine but not with checked baggage. Flights are open...

    Stopover in singapore opens up reward seats?

    Virtually all airline booking engines are not designed to be smart enough to error you when you try to circumvent married segment logic ie. connections within 24 hours, by putting the segments into a multi city search individually.

    Got moved off my bassinet seat T2150 hours before flight

    The auto reseating that happens when there's a configuration swap keeps doing this... there's no valid reason for it happening and QF should fix it but that's another argument. You will want to keep an eye on it... it will probably keep happening. If you have an INF in the PNR you can book the...

    Qantas boosts international capacity, wet lease Finnair aircraft

    AY tech crew are dual rated on the A330 and A350 unlike Aussie tech crew who are rated on one type only. Hence they operate ex-HEL to BKK or SIN, then after 2 nights, onwards to SYD and back.

    Qantas boosts international capacity, wet lease Finnair aircraft

    Before BKK started, the tech crew were doing HEL-SIN-SYD-SIN-HEL. I would've thought they'd do the same with BKK, ie. HEL-BKK-SYD-BKK-HEL. The cabin crew are from the respective SIN and BKK bases so each SYD trip is a new trip for them.

    UK AMEX 2 for 1 voucher

    Availability is much more of an issue on QR than BA. It's much easier to use the BA 2-4-1 than it is to get U class on QR.

    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic Reward seats?

    The online vs robot release quotas are different. There's plenty of times where online has U9 but the robot release quota has already been hit.

    Adding 2 passports in APIS? Dual AU/US citizen flying EU->USA->Australia

    It has to be done just before a departure out of Australia. It's because we have outbound immigration smartgates. If you don't want the passports linked / don't want to give the foreign passport details to ABF, that's fine, you just have to exit on the Australian passport / deal with your...
