    AA Revamping Million Miler

    Yes, saw this on Reddit this morning and received a message in the AA app. I'm one of the legacy multi-million milers (some credit card but mostly EXP for 10 years from when that level was introduced. Plenty of bonus miles awarded for premium cabins etc.). Assuming the million mile counter is...

    Can a Flex Y ticket be changed to a Sale J ticket without charge?

    In my experience the voucher portal does not match sale fares (at least in J). Provided you get a competent agent, you can call & explain that the fares don't match. The agent should be able to book the sale fare you see and waive the booking charge.

    Bangkok Airways Boarding Pass and Baggage Interline QF Codeshare

    I have done similar trip last year but from Koh Samui. Bangkok Airways through checked the luggage and issued boarding passes for the QF flight. We asked if we could access the Blue Ribbon lounge (PG's business lounge) but were politely turned away as we were not in Business on the PG flight...

    The Qantas Newbie Questions Thread

    Make sure to check the price of flights using the regular booking page first. Sometimes the voucher booking process will only offer flights that are priced higher than what can be booked regularly. When this has happened to me, I call and the rep can book with no fee the regular priced fare and...

    Thanks Airwin. Pity about EconomyX, but if I can get an aisle seat upfront I'll be happy.

    The Virgin Australia Newbie Questions Thread

    Sorry for the basic question, but can someone enlighten me as to how seat selection (or not) works for Lite fares with SG status? I understand that before check-in I have to pay for a seat if I wish. However, when check-in opens at 48 hours, can I then select from any open seat no charge?

    Oversize luggage rules

    I had a lot of trouble getting info on what the maximum dimensions would be accepted as an oversize item by QF international. When calling, operators would keep referring me to the web pages (which are not specific enough). There is info on bike boxes, surfboards & skis can be up to 277cm in...

    We’re launching a Qantas Status Run service + free giveaway

    I'd be interested to try this out. Would be also great to offer an optimisation service. e.g., I want to go from ABC to XYZ - here is the best routing I can find, can AFF find something better? (could be judged by a few metrics, maximum SCs, $/SC, minimum segments, etc.).

    The Qantas Status Run Master Thread

    Generally, yes, DSC has been happening around Feb for the past few years. Of course, no one knows for sure what timetable QF will follow in the future. With DSC, the lowest I have been able to get is $2.63/SC. However, that was a six segment itinerary to go somewhere I could have flown direct...

    The Qantas Status Run Master Thread

    Anyone have suggestions for creative routings with the current Red Tail sale offerings? (Preferably J). I usually find something ex OOL with a few sectors but not coming up with anything reasonable this sale.

    Fiji Airways to become full oneworld member and adopt AAdvantage program

    We were flying Y and not offered lounge access at USM at check-in. I popped into the lounge to see if we might have access and they said no, but we could pay for access if we wanted to. TBH, it didn't look like anything special and there was plenty of seating at the gate, which while in a hut...

    Fiji Airways to become full oneworld member and adopt AAdvantage program

    In my experience, you can. We had booked a QF codeshare flight on Bangkok Airways (PG), SIN-USM. I was able to guest my partner (NB) into the QF First lounge at SIN. Check carefully the qualification on the lounge access page. There is a * next to the "Qantas flight number" heading. Right down...

    Is there a need for a new Oneworld tier above Emerald?

    AAdvantage Platinum Pro was introduced in the 2017 membership year and was equivalent to OWS, the same as AAdvantage Platinum. The upgrade to OWE took place on 30/6/2021. Good summary here: Platinum Pro Upgraded
