    Article: Australia-USA Flights at 50% of Pre-COVID Capacity

    Indeed. Very interesting but what is the impact of Air Canada. This is now our preferred choice for BNE to BOS. Cheaper than Qantas and only have to deal with one US airport, avoiding the frequently tiresome LAX and being the last in line to board when it seems everyone and their dog has some...

    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    re: Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options Thanks for the tips! I found a Bris to Cairns with an affordable Red up and Flex for the return. Sorry I am lousy at remembering the fare classes but bottom line is 45 SC for about $440 and a simple return routing. Plenty of time to get some work...

    Qantas Business Rewards [Replaces Aquire]

    Re: Qantas launches "Aquire" business frequent flyer program. As a sole trader just getting underway the chnage works for me although I expect I will exceed the old 20000 points threshold it was the 2 employee minimum that was going to hold me up so I am pleased to see that barrier removed. I...

    BNE TRS (tourist refund) opening hours?

    There are tables set up in fronts of the TRS with the forms, envelopes etc. On the right as soon as you clear security. It's easy to miss so don't walk fast.

    BNE TRS (tourist refund) opening hours?

    They bascly don't. You fill out a form and leave that with your invoice and put them in an envelope. You address the envelope to yourself but don't seal it. Then you pop it in the box provided. They process it then your copy will be posted to you in the envelope that you have addressed to...

    LAX International to T6

    All I see that the connector from Bradley to T4 has opened and the LAX terminal map suggests there is also a connector from T4 to T6. I land in Bradley (QF15) and have a 5 hour layover till I leave from T6 (on another QFcode flight). I assume I still clear customs first but can I move from...

    New status privledges and how soon to access?

    The flights are a Friday on QF BNE to LAX then same day connection to BOS on an AA flight. That first leg is enough to get the last few SC required.

    Hi All - another newbie

    Hi folks and thanks to those that have contribute so much knowledge to this resource. Most of my air travel is for either work or as a volunteer for a global professional association.
