    Qantas to Launch SYD-AKL-JFK (June 2023)

    The line you're talking about is the general Business/First/status priority queue at T8. BA/AA operate a premium check in area that is separated for their Business (OWS etc) and First (OWE etc) pax. The First check in area is fully isolated and spits you out right at the TSAPre line.

    Current Qantas First Lounge Menu (SYD/MEL) and relevant topics

    I know this is specifically for SYD/MEL, but does anyone have the latest LAX menu? There was a thread for the LAX lounge but seems to have been locked in 2020. Either Spring or Summer, if they've changed over to that yet!

    Qantas to Launch SYD-AKL-JFK (June 2023)

    Appreciate it, I guess these are all about 8-10 months from when QF3/4 launched so was hoping to see if anyone had more recent experiences. Now that the route has had a chance to settle in.

    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic Reward seats?

    No, it's not possible to combine award and paid fares in one booking. If you change the paid booking from return to one way then it will be repriced as a one-way fare and likely will cost significantly more than half of the original fare.

    How to get the 4~ eligible QF flights living outside AU

    Apologies if this is answered elsewhere – I have recently relocated to the USA. My status renewal is end of Sep and I don't have any plans to visit Australia before then. I should have no problem retaining gold with trips on AA and BA planned in the next year, but my problem will be the 4...

    Paid upgrade on AA - earn higher rate of QF SCs?

    Apologies if already answered, I couldn't find it here or on FT. I have a few domestic USA flights on AA coming up and have taken up a paid offer for a couple of flights. Looking at the ticket from AA, the fare bucket has changed from S (economy) to J (dom First). The flights were ticketed by...

    Qantas Business Class meals & menus

    You’re right, they’re like the Nespresso soft sleeve capsules they use in the corporate machines. FWIW I always find if I write ‘double espresso’ or whatever on the breakfast form that that is what I receive. If I just tick the ‘coffee’ box they will just give you standard drip. Ask and you...

    Qantas Points Club Discussion

    Just to give an update on this. My points didn't come through after a couple of days so I logged a missing points request with them. The SCs were credited after a day or two and the ticket was closed, although I didn't get the double SCs that I was due - will have to follow up with them again...

    Qantas Business Class meals & menus

    5.30pm is classified as dinner, so I believe should be at least two hot options and a salad? Possibly one of the hot options will be soup. I flew QF470 on the weekend (leaving at 5pm), and they had chicken and corn soup, veal ravioli, or the ubiquitous chicken waldorf salad.
