    Qantas Schedule more Evening Departures to North America

    Good point! Though being in Brisbane recently has meant going to DFW means 2 flights, plus where you want to end up after DFW. Though AA’s BNE to DFW service will be an excellent option once launched!

    Qantas Schedule more Evening Departures to North America

    It’s fairly useless to have late night departures arriving too late into LA to do a meaningful connection. Has certainly made the choice to fly with other carriers easier.

    What time period can you see Cathay flights via Qantas? I can’t see any for the routes I’m looking for in February 2025.

    You’re correct. And yes I don’t know! 😅

    Flying 1am CX BNE to HKG - BNE lounge options

    The worst situation for Cathay from Brisbane at the moment is the lounge. Plaza premium at that time is completely full with no places to sit and mediocre food options available - it is the weakest point of the Cathay experience at the moment. I travelled with them a few months ago and found...

    Is travel to Israel/ME realistically possible?

    Was in Egypt and Jordan in December / January. Egypt was perfect and would go on a plane tonight if I had a booking. The only on ground impact you'll notice is no tourists in what is the peak season!

    Backdated Qantas Hotel Points- Points Club Plus

    Great outcome. I find points credit a month after the stay. Qantas hotels is an Expedia partner - you might hear it when you check in to hotels sometimes when they see how you booked.

    Am also keen to hear about insights on Rimowa. For reference I have lojel hard shell luggage which is going strong with no damage yet. Has lasted longer than my previous hard shell samsonite.

    NAB credit cards - Are they treated as separate offerings (like ANZ)?

    I’ve done both and received bonus points on the non qantas card even though I cancelled my qantas nav card maybe 3 months before applying for the non qantas nab card. If the terms and conditions haven’t changed you should still be fine.

    BA club suites for SYD

    They didn’t show up at all actually. Not even as non earning. Nothing on my activity statement for it.

    Classic Reward Downgrade - Points Refund?

    Hi all I’m after some advice before phoning qantas to assist me. Have flown from Hobart to Brisbane via Sydney, booked in business. Arrival into Sydney was delayed so the flight to Brisbane was in economy. Given the way Qantas price their rewards - what points adjustment would be reasonable...

    Qantas FF Redemption - Cathay Pacific & Europe

    Thanks for your replies :) Looks like everything's good if I can get it to book - much better than extended layovers in Perth!

    Qantas FF Redemption - Cathay Pacific & Europe

    I"ve had to do a search exactly as described... How long would Cathay take to notice and then cancel the booking if it was in fact determined to be invalid from their point of view? On the Qantas site it allows me to go right through to the booking summary page.

    Qantas FF Redemption - Cathay Pacific & Europe

    Hi everyone, I'm looking at making a classic rewards redemption for 2016 and I'm finding odd flights when I look at returning from Amsterdam to Brisbane (usually ending up being routed via Perth with a 7 hour stopover at night). I've found that there is award availability on Cathay to Hong...
