Re: TT 10,000 seats for $10 between MEL and SYD

....Then on the return leg we are in 1D , E , F and my wife behind in 2D .I just moved all adults to first row and two children in row 2....
A times some airlines restrict the number of children in one row due to the availability of oxygen masks. With yours being 2 & 4 that may be an issue.

Can anyone answer me - can the OP get three adults and two kids into a QP with a single QP membership? What are the limits?

Invite a guest


You are welcome to invite family, friends or a colleague to join you in the lounge. If you're flying domestically on Qantas, QantasLink or Jetstar within Australia, and on Jetstar within New Zealand you may bring one guest to join you in a Qantas Club lounge. Your guests do not need to be travelling.
When visiting an international Qantas Club lounge, you are able to invite one guest each time you visit. Both you and your guest need to be travelling together further that day on a Qantas, Jetstar International or British Airways flight.


Children in Lounges
Our lounges are places where our members can relax and unwind or keep on working. We ask that children under the age of 18 years are accompanied by an adult and that they are closely supervised

So NO! I suspect he has (yet again) failed to read the rules.

Would not presume to answer for the particular OP, as standard rules don't seem to be relevant. But my understanding is that a QC member travelling JQ, would be entitled to one guest, plus two children (4 yo+). Child under 4 also admitted.

Maybe we should start a new thread "I don't trust shanye223" and start from there .


I brought a qantas club card because my owe does not allow me access web flying on JQ . Secondly my two kids 4 and 2 don't count as guests. I have two more adults with me wife and a mate im allowed one guest it hoping two no big deal.

In regards to sitting with strangers here what I'm thinking my wife will lap the little one for take off and landing and sit with the during the flight . Worse case will even swap with the pax in the seat next store. I dont have any children in row one on any segments .

On a side note I'm very popular on MP but here and FT like I set the school on fire

Hope you will use it more than once as that is some expensive lounge time.

Also you will probably find they will not allow a second guest in.. It only ever happened once for me in Adelaide and we were the only ones in the lounge.

Shanye, I actually truly enjoy your posts. You seem to be stretching the boundaries of scamming (I mean that in a positive note) and that is entertaining.

I do think you get too carried away and perhaps abuse the help that some AFF people have given you. I think you need to recognize the difference between people on here who help you through sheer interest and decency, from anonymous call centres where you simply extract the max you can.

You seem to operate at a million miles an hour, so perhaps you dont keep back in tune with the threads you start. It seems you haave managed to achieve meteoric rises through the various programs, but you seem reluctant to divulge how you did that to the members here. This is a family of people that have travel as an interest. Work with them rather than just try to race through and take advantage of other´s good intentions.

But yet again, I thank you, as your sometimes chaotic posts have made me smile more than a few times.
 
Re: TT 10,000 seats for $10 between MEL and SYD

I have given special treatment to those who have given to me . Im a loop hole jumper type of guy and If there's not one there to jump thru I make one. Majority of these status I have with airlines i won't use .I'm 100% sure if I open the flood gates on some ins and outs it will cease I have learnt that the hard way . I believe that's why the trick it thread exists on FT.

But I will give some advice which really is common sense . If your a top member of airline A call airline B for a status match if you were airline A would you give that information to airline B . Hey hi just callin to steal your best customer is that ok with you? ;)

Class dismissed !

Please take a Platinum Star and an A+ for grace and effort - before your class is dismissed. :D
 
Re: TT 10,000 seats for $10 between MEL and SYD

This is the post I'm referring to. Yes its only a 1 hour 30 mins flight but for $5 il take the extra room but not for $25. I would like to know how this member got to select the same seat I want for $5 and not the $25 I'm quoted. We both paid $9 for the flights and on the same routing.

Shanye2233,I understand that other members have answered your original question but I thought that as the poster of the post you noted I should clarify this.

Seat 12A (or 12F) on the A321 is a 'normal' seat which can be selected by anyone for $5. It is actually not located in an exit row (which are rows 11 and 25 on the A321). Hence my comment about the seat being a prized seat.

Or should I say, I managed to charm the lady over the phone and she decided to charge me $5 instead of $25. :lol:
 
Shanye2233,

Maybe I'm a bit slow today but why did you buy a Qantas Club membership when you are OW Emerald :?:

See this thread: http://www.australianfrequentflyer....ussion/oneworld-emerald-on-jetstar-41134.html

The rules basically indicate that non QF OWE (EXP in this case) doesn't provide lounge access rights when travelling JQ.

Because non-QF OWE doesn't give QP access on JQ
Sorry that I did not put the question very well. My query was really whether there is sufficient value in buying the QP membership just so lounge access is available for what I understand to be occasional JQ flights.

For myself it's worth it .I have a family of 4 who are granted access lets say 6-10 times a year for $200. Considering I looked at the qantas club one entry passes on eBay for $60+ it's a good deal.

OK.

Personally I would find another option other than flying Jetstar.
 
Shayne, I think 2 of the main reasons you get so many negative comments on this site is because:

a) you demand answers to your short, sharp questions without bothering to properly clarify your situation or answer questions members have about you to understand your situation and why you are asking what you are asking (for example, I would be very interested to know the answer to this: http://www.australianfrequentflyer....rtw-trip-2-adults-2-a-39418-6.html#post644802 )

b) also, you make very broad, sweeping statements about the aviation industry with no evidence or explanation of this statement (for example, http://www.australianfrequentflyer....rtw-trip-2-adults-2-a-39418-5.html#post614203 ) which is naturally going to spark the interest of the many FF travel experts on this site. Yet when they ask questions about what you have said, invariably point a) above applies.

I understand you want answers and don't want to 'waste time' giving people information and giving away 'your secrets'. In my experience people on here will be much more willing to help you and give you tips, inside information (you didn't know you needed a visa to visit certain overseas countries) if you are willing to provide all the information required to get the answer you want, help those who help you, and accept (and value) that there are some people on here that know a lot more about certain FF topics than you do.

You would never have been able to do your USDM trip you have just completed without this site!

In summary: people like to give when they are surrounded by like-minded individuals. (Or more tersely, the information on offer dries up when people feel someone is focussed only on take). Perhaps this is how your lack of responses / lack of detail is perceived (whether or not this is the case is for you to judge).
 
If you decide to do a price beat close to your date of flying make sure its at least three days, did one two days ago for Sunday, because there is still an amount owing on the booking (JQ have not finalised the difference in fare vs what I paid), I cannot check in and select a seat until they do, which apparently is at the three day mark!
