Has anyone been able to reach a QF call centre using the premium line this evening? Have been on hold for nearly two hours and still waiting... will miss out on the DSC's at this rate!

Is it to do a CR booking? You could do a dummy booking now if necessary.

Classic rewards booking - but I need them to release the points seats first. Can/how do I do a dummy booking for that?

Anyone else booked last minute flights . I did to Melbourne airport

Just book anything maybe if there's an economy version of your flight. Pay the change fee later when you alter it. (Yes you can get them to do a WP release to alter your flight and add to PNR).

Yes I was on hold for more than an hour before Mary answered and hopefully managed to make a booking using my flight credits as my preferred flight options weren't available online

Fingers crossed that Manila doesn’t pick up. Maybe it’s just me, but I have had a lot of drama there (messed-up simple bookings/ changes)

Have just got through - one consultant has taken down the details, now on hold to another one who will apparently release the seats and so forth...

I'm actually not sure where has answered - the accent doesn't sound like it is Manila, Fiji, South Africa, Auckland or Hobart...

Hobart is probably in bed by now. Anyway, good luck.

Not sure - but at this rate I will still be on hold to the call centre when it drops!

Will they back track it

BTW does anyone know what the penalty is if you cancel the return leg of a CR booking after having flown the outbound leg? Currently trying to get the seats released for a return trip to Shanghai via HKG, but the return might need to morph into a trip to Korea and then home from there.

I was trying to book a CR late last night. Kept getting error messages on the Qantas website and, as a result, did not complete the booking until just after midnight. Just on the phone to them at the moment, but not getting a reply even though I've been next in queue for about 30 mins now. Getting close to needing to give up and try again in the morning.

Anyone have success in getting Qantas to honour the promotion in these circumstances?

Loss of all points redeemed for the return leg. Cannot cancel CRs after first leg is flown.

Cheers - might book the return as a separate leg. Call just dropped out so I am back to the beginning with the call centre...

 

[RSD]

OK all booked now thanks to the team at Auckland! Outbound and return legs on separate bookings in case I have to cancel the return and go to Korea and then return from there.

No Joy with getting DSC sorted out due to the wait times. Might give QFF a call tomorrow about it.
