It still took off from an Australian port and flew in Australian airspace! I understand CASA’s juristiction, my comment was aimed to hightlight the implications of CASAs decision for passengers in other locations who will now (most likely) be flying on these aircraft later today.

It’s operated by DQ-FJM which isn’t a 7M8

I suspect this too, but why have CASA make a ban and then go ahead and allow the aircraft to fly?! Surely a ban is a ban, regardless of how may pax on board. The ongoing implications of this exception mean that two aircraft (DQ FAB, and DQ FAD - which flew to NAN yesterday morning pre-ban) will...

Yet DQ-FAB operating as FJ1914 departed SYD for NAN at 6:15am this morning! How did this happen if CASA’s ban was in place?

Hi all Does anyone have experience accessing the Hong Kong Oneworld lounges with their family? QF WP travelling with partner and two children aged 3 years and 6 years, with a 3 hour early morning transit (0500 - 0800) between a CX and JAL flight. QF lounge doesn’t open until 0730, and the CX...

I’ve absolutely had this problem, and possibly one step worse. Lodged a claim for a JQ flight taken in March, eventually received SCs at the end of May after calling a number of times. Then, randomly at the end of July the same flight appeared on my statement as “cancelled” and the SCs were...

Something similar happened to me recently on QF10 via DXB on a fully flexible Y ticket. Got a Y+ upgrade at T-24, called and availability in J LHR-DXB was the problem. Asked at check in and was told to ask at lounge, at lounge I was told to ask at gate, at gate I was told J was full, but there...

Unfortunately, yes, for my upcoming flights where I'd selected 14A, manage my booking initially showed this selection as remaining in place, but when I went further into the seat selection area my choice had reverted to "window" and the banner stated 14A was a $20 "extra legroom seat"

Hi everyone I wanted to give an update, and perhaps even see if anyone has further experience with this, and may be able to offer advice or assistance. Way back in November I created a credit voucher with the same PNR, and was given an assurance by the FF team member that as long as I retained...

Hi All Have trawled my way through this entire thread, and these posts are the only ones which "sort of" address my question... Firstly, I can happily report that I have successfully had all my DSC points from this promo posted within a couple of days of travel, including on changed flights -...

Hi All Unusual request, and not sure it's in the right place, so mods please move if required. I'm flying from OOL and need secure undercover parking for a motorhome-style vehicle for two weeks in October. The vehicle is 2.5m high so doesn't fit into normal car parks, even though it's only about...

I do know that my iPad profile says I like to be called by my first name - and often the CSM comments on this. I'm also hoping (!!) that it has a listed preference for F champagne when seated in J (as has happened three or four times)!!

Just happened to me early in March on a SYD-HKG on QF in J on the upper deck of the old 747. I always like a window seat, but it was a full load, so chose an aisle (better than a middle J seat which you can get in those 747s!) Arrived to find someone in my seat, and (luckily, rightly) presumed...

Yes, just flew SYD-HKG (7Mar)on VB-OEB as QF127 with F seats sold as J. Unfortunately I didn't score one of those seats in the nose, but was happy to be A-side upstairs. I think no matter now long I fly, there's something about heading upstairs on a 747 that makes me excited for my trip! Perhaps...

Re: Many people being comped status recently? I had exactly this situation in August last year, with my renewal 31 August, I was comped WP about 20th August - with a European trip on 28 August which would have requalifed me anyway. I only got a congratulatory pop up - no letter except the one...

Monday 7 March Flight - QF127 Dep - SYD ARR - HKG QF First Can guest 1 pax

Unfortunately it seems that this is anything but seamless, and most check in agents don't know what the rules are either. I had an awful experience checking in at SFO a month ago - right when Qantas were on TV advertising the great new partnership! Bearing in mind I am a WP / OW Emerald - I was...

Hi All Not sure if this should be in a different area? (mods please move/remove as necessary) Is anyone affected by Qantas removing their QF codeshare from all Air Vanuatu flights effective immediately (Travel updates | Qantas) (Qantas halts codeshare with Air Vanuatu over runway concerns |...

Way back in November, MEL F Lounge with a very much delayed QF93 to LAX spotted Ricky Ponting and Geoffrey Edelsten (famous/infamous). Happy that R. Ponting was seated across the aisle from me in the front J cabin and had a bit of a chat through the flight. Top Bloke :-)
