    Fairer & Simpler Enhanced QFF Optus Plans effective 12 Apr

    Same, the best part about this was the roaming as I make frequent international trips (at least a few days a month) being able to have some data and use my phone without the extra cost was great. Once I get kicked off the plan looks like I will have to seek an alternative.

    Qantas A380 at Gatwick

    Interesting. Due to the late arrival into LAX on QF11, we missed the connecting flight and QF has put us in a hotel tonight and rebooked on a DL flight tomorrow. Looks like I will have to submit an ORC for the original points and status credits due. Obviously these things happen with air...

    Qantas App issues?

    Considering how much of their business, especially when it comes to domestic travel is run on the app now. Turning off the app would have caused a total melt down of operations. QF backed themselves into a corner on this one. Which when they removed check in kiosks, counters and staff we all...

    Qantas App issues?

    So it appears QF’s most recent update was incorrect:

    Qantas App issues?

    My mother is flying today and earlier today she received a 2fa message. I was helping her last night with her booking and thought it might have been to do with that. After seeing this now possibly her details showed up on someone elses app and they attempted something 😳

    Qantas A380 at Gatwick

    I will be affected by this, currently due to fly out on QF11 today scheduled at 8:35PM on VH-OQI. Looks like it was delayed leaving SIN as QF332 and is now running late causing a flow on delay to QF11 which is now scheduled to depart at 10:30PM. If it slips another 30 minutes due to the curfew...

    Qantas rolls out Classic Plus Flight Rewards

    Looks like Qantas is now milking the media attention from this drop. Can see a "surprise 72 hour sale" on domestic fares just opened up. Would have been good if it was international to allow partnering with the CR+ to "show" how it can be "better" than a CR when there is a sale.

    Qantas Increases Legroom Charges; Changes to Row 4 selection on most 737 flights

    Well maybe a better choice of words would be “exploit the opportunity for extra revenue” QF saw an increase in demand of people using the T80 rule so some bright spark said “what if we charge for it?”.

    Qantas Increases Legroom Charges; Changes to Row 4 selection on most 737 flights

    With the T80 rule being published far and wide lately, it no longer was an “industry secret” its no surprise QF pretty much put an end to it. This happens every time frequent flyer bloggers catch wind of something and promote it far and wide, the benefits disappear then the airline clamps down.

    Pets in the Cabin - Coming soon on Virgin Australia

    Id like to draw attention to this recent incident on united. Owner took dog out of cage and the dog relived itself on nearby passenger. https://www.fodors.com/news/news/who-should-cleans-up-after-pets-on-flights-passengers-or-crew I don’t understand why Virgin (or other airlines) are willing...

    Qantas Call Centre Long Wait Times

    I used click to call, which took 35 minutes to be answered by a rather blunt South African agent. I want to cancel a booking that had an involuntary schedule change. The email says: No where in manage my booking or the Qantas app does it give me any new options, so I called. The agent told me...

    Double Status Credits promotion (Book by 27/2/24, travel 28/2/24-14/2/25)

    If I cancel only do you think the refund would go through or should I talk to someone? The QF contact centre is busy, currently at 40 minutes wait and counting. Tried earlier and stopped after 30 minutes. 1709025767 I believe the only way to change routing is talk to an agent.

    Double Status Credits promotion (Book by 27/2/24, travel 28/2/24-14/2/25)

    I have a booking SYD <> BNE return which had a schedule change of 15 minutes and was automatically reticketed. I want to use this change as an opportunity to cancel it and rebook under double sc (also at a slightly different time as the flight leaves earlier than I want). Nowhere in manage my...

    "Nobody, including children, should sleep on the floor"

    My memory might be deceiving me, but I think VA made the same announcement on their 777 long haul flights?

    Lets talk about the 787 windows

    I don’t mind if they change the darkness to “suggest” where they should be but the locking more often than not is frustrating. Especially that the windows have a “dim” feature maybe I want it a shade brighter so I can see out but minimise disturbance. I left off my first post the window issue...

    Lets talk about the 787 windows

    Oh wow, maybe its only on the North America routes? I’ve only ever flown 787 to various NA destinations. But I have done this “many” times, maybe Ive just been unlucky?

    Lets talk about the 787 windows

    I’ve had a problem with 787 windows for a while but after not having flown this aircraft for a bit then flying it again, made me realise both the issues with it and specifically how Qantas handles it. The window lock, every single QF 787 fight I’ve been on the flight crew either lock the window...

    QF Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    I haven’t flown long haul Y in 10 years, so I can’t really say 😂 But I did find PE even middle middle seat pretty comfortable. PE is what Y “should” be. If you are under 6ft I find it comfortable. A family member is over 6ft and said they can’t make the leg rest work for them. Previously I’ve...

    QF Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    Had exactly this happen to me on QF2. Went from bulkhead window seat in Y to middle seat middle row of PE and was considering trying to be downgraded back. They had actually filled Y too by then so there was no where to go. Despite that I actually had a somewhat comfortable flight.

    Does anyone have any idea what QF780 is doing tonight?

    Captain: “We will be touching down in BNE shortly, I hope you enjoyed your flight”. FO: Aren’t we going to MEL? Captain: Oh Sh**
