    Qantas to start flights from Darwin to Singapore

    Not willing to pay for QF premium class fares for my DSC usage, some exploration showed that PER-DRW-SIN flex Y fares were less expensive than PER-eastcoast-SIN and in many cases offered more SC/points and certainly shorter total times. And while PER-SIN direct uses an A330, the current thoughts...

    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic Reward seats?

    In your case, you’ll need to rely on QF checking you through from one booking to the other at check-in, which they should do for QF<>QF, QF<>EK, or QF<>QF award (incl partners) Will someone please pass this information on to the Perth international check in desks. They did not like check...

    Qantas forcing everyone to use self-service check-in kiosks in AKL

    Domestic connection to international multi-segment flights Mobility assistance is required to get from check in to the gate area. Extra baggage fees are required (and known in advance) I am certain more reasons can be envisaged. Qantas management should do more interesting wandering Fred

    While true, those passengers paying for the privilege of earning QFF points, also get choice of seats in the first 6 rows, which cost the non-QFF earners extra while wandering Fred

    A330s out of life

    Depending on the flight departure time, I would prefer a window in row 2 or 3. Better for leaning and sleeping. My big gripe is the "Qantas FF earnings" on JQ are the same for both PER-SIN and PER-BKK. Followed closely by the QFF earning fares NOT following the sale fares down. But yes the A321...
