• Aircraft change - what are my rights?

    Feb 17, 2020, 07:57 PM

    Hi Krishaal,Firstly, I would say it is very unlikely you'll get any points back if you complain, but nor would I say it's a zero percent chance. I'd suggest you take a few minutes to submit a complaint - if only to let QF know people do get upset over this issue and feel it would be fair to be fl...

  • Cancelled Qantas points booking

    Mar 06, 2019, 01:13 PM

    On my very small sample size of personal experience, that is unusual. When I have cancelled reward bookings, the points (and cash fees) have been returned pretty much immediately - even for bookings on non-QF flights. Within a few days at most, as best as I can recall.I would say you have cause t...

  • Qantas wine bonus points delays

    Jan 21, 2019, 06:27 PM

    Me too! I called and the Rep said there is currently a delay due to the heavy Xmas traffic of orders. So points processing is backed up, but will happen eventually.

    Love it. Is he a fairly new resident? I don't recall meeting him on previous visits, but it has been a while. I will certainly look for him to say hello on my next stay in a few weeks.

  • How to spend a weekend in Hong Kong?

    Aug 20, 2018, 04:36 PM

    I'll second Ryan's suggestion. I really enjoyed my day trip to Lamma Island. Quirky little township, various easy hikes and lovely scenery. The low-key vibe is a fun contrast to HK proper. Pleasant and scenic ferry ride there and back as well.

  • SQ online check-in

    May 14, 2018, 03:32 PM

    Hi again bagpuss. So, just in case you're interested, this is what happened; on the back of getting an email from SingAir saying I could indeed skip check-in, I was all set to try my luck and head straight to immigration, but there was no line at the J counter so I chickened out and went up to ta...

    Thanks, bagpuss, for the very helpful reply.

  • SQ online check-in

    May 01, 2018, 10:49 AM

    Hi all,I'm flying SQ from PER to HKG. I'll have carry-on only and travelling on an Australian passport. I've read the SQ webpage about online check-in and see that PER is on the list of places that accept self-printed boarding passes, but there's also the caveat that you can proceed straight to i...

  • As with bl5965, I was on a flight last year which was swapped to the 737 and I was pro-actively credited 30,000pts to my velocity account. As it happens, the guy sitting next to me had had the same thing happen to him recently (poor chap - two flights in a row) and likewise, he had been credited ...

  • Hi Greg,Thanks for the advice. Yep, I checked aircraft and it is currently an A330 but I know all too well that that can change - although changes seem to be infrequent now on coast-to-coast, right?

  • Hi Henrus,Well, I did pre-emptively thank respondents for any truth bombs, so I guess I led with my chin. :-)  In any case, thanks for the thoughts and advice. Nope, I haven't called as yet, but will give it a try - although I must add that in my experience the on-hold times can be long and ...

  • Hi there trusted experts,I'm looking to book two tickets on Qantas - classic reward tickets Mel-Per, business class. As in, two paxtravelling together. For the day I wish to travel, the QF site shows ONE reward seat available on my preferred flight, and two on a different (non-preferred...
