My first post!
Welcome to AFF.
As Pushka said, quite the thread to start of on!
If you go over to introductions, you'll get another dollop of welcomes
My first post!
A lot of paranoia in this thread about airfares increasing during this promotion.My SYD JFK J flights have only increased by about $3 so far so talk of QF increasing fares during the promo arent true just yet.
When Qantas can’t get basic IT correct when booking then I think the delayed bookings are fine.
Today I was logged in to MrP’s account to make a booking. I tried to use a voucher but couldn’t so I had to start again. I was still logged in according to the top right. I went ahead to book a paid for booking and website seemingly it thought I wasn’t logged in. Had to enter MrP details as though as I wasn’t logged in. Went to select seats and all the first 20 odd rows were blocked. He is WP.
Gave up. Waited 30 mins then tried on iPad. Logged in and booked paid flight. When selecting seats all the usual rows were available as WP. Useless.

Personally I refer to them as 'variable other use credit held expense redeemable services'.Welcome bombie. And what a thread to start on
I think ‘delayed bookings’ is an apt term.
So what you saying is for last year DSC promotion you only got normal amount of SC posted on your account just after flight in each case, and the bulk difference of awarded SC was posted at the end of promotional period a year later?...will be interesting to see how long before they post (following weekend is my bet) - or will we wait until the end of the T&C's period. Somewhat glad that I don't have bookings spread through to the end of the offer, like the one 12 months ago.
No, not for us. DSCs posted within a day or so of the normal points and SCs.So what you saying is for last year DSC promotion you only got normal amount of SC posted on your account just after flight in each case, and the bulk difference of awarded SC was posted at the end of promotional period a year later?

What we've all been waiting for!
Registration link is on the Qantas home page.
Book an eligible Qantas operated flight between 1 February and 5 February 2018, for travel from 12 February 2018 to 20 January 2019.
With global offers like this QF still tends to target the emails. The timing is always a bit of a surprise. Like last year the promo has come earlier than I expected.I missed this by one day.
I’m sure QF sent something in the mail last year.
Ha. I only realised the acronym once I’d got halfway through.Personally I refer to them as 'variable other use credit held expense redeemable services'.

Its sad how everyone is trying to argue with me, I'm just providing my 2 cents, I didn't make the rules and I can't change them even if your argument is valid.
Anyone had success booking a child as a 2nd passenger on a voucher, it defaults to adults for all pax?
Thank you Fiona, I'll give it a go.Yes, I changed a voucher purchased to one adult and one child via the call centre a year or two ago.
I'm struggling to see how book between 1 Feb and 5 Feb reasonably means book between 1 feb and 20 jan next year.
An IT glitch making this work does not make it reasonable to think that 1 - 5 feb includes 6 feb to 20 jan.
I sure a lawyer could reasonably make the case that delayed booking to gain a benefit against the conditions is fraudulent.

Proving that was the intent could be difficult and probably not worth QF’s while to needlessly annoy loyal customers.I sure a lawyer could reasonably make the case that delayed booking to gain a benefit against the conditions is fraudulent.
