Just wondering about the P1 lounge passes....
Have 2 expiring end of this month
But seem to have been given 4 for upcoming year, expiring October 2019.
Any thoughts?
The Brisbane outbound QF2560 goes BNE - ROM - CLT then QF2561 runs CLT - ROM - BNE. Talking with the staff I learnt that the aircraft had gone unserviceable when it landed in ROM as QF2560, a good two hours prior to my arrival at the airport.
Pedantic hat on ....
I think you mean RMA for Roma, and CTL for Charleville rather than ROM(Generic code for Rome) and Charlotte, North Carolina(verry long flights in regional equipment )
I remember always being called personally for cancellations and individually dealt with. This is no longer the case anymore. Only proviso is when I call them for help. It seems better.
I think DSC's and the like have added a few to the ranks of the White Card I suspect and there's probably more work than used to be for the SST.
I've found it variable with domestic tbh. Luckily few disruptions, but when they have occured some years back did get a call either from SST or "Premium Res" (when they were in BNE so there's a hint!). A few weeks back when I had issues once I called the SST they were proactive and kept in touch as things evolved
so I do think Marki is on the money with how things have changed.
it's not a criticism... indeed I've renened with help of DSC a few timesI’m ashamed to admit I’m one of those DSC P1’s (though will be dropping down in May)
I had a similar circumstance recently when I was booked on a flight out of Canberra. I was on the way to the airport when I received a call telling me the 17.10 Melbourne flight was going to be delayed and my next connection was at risk. They said they'd keep a seat open for me on the 16.20, even when I said I wasn't at the airport yet.
After I got off the phone, I took stock of the situation and realised I was the wrong side of Goulburn which meant I had no hope of making the 16.20. Accordingly, I called the SST back and discovered they knew absolutely nothing about the situation and it must have been Canberra airport that had called me. Slight feeling of disillusionment! Mind you, I was still chuffed that the airport cared enough to call, so no complaints.
Almost certain. When I received the call (whilst driving) I was a bit confused as to who it was from. Retrospectively I realised they'd said "Canberra airport". It came up as "private number"; a caller I'm unfortunately quite aggressive to, so was momentarily unsettled by it being someone genuinely trying to help.That is actually really impressive. Are you sure it wasn't the SST and the person you spoke to just didn't know about it?
