Hi Ricardo,I was also thinking this a few months ago. And up popped UA's status match. I applied, was accepted and I have since flown more than 10 sectors with UA and it's partners...No better than Qantas. From Australia staff basically threw my tray onto my tray table on the flight to SFO. I had...

So, I am currently stuck in a massive queue for security at Brisbane domestic Qantas. Would you believe it, the premium lounge entry with the separate security is closed from 5 pm. WTF business lights tend to be around 45 6 pm do they not?And the normal security line has no separation what so eve...

Booking on other carriers using QF points seems very difficult to impossible at the moment. I even called and asked. Lovely lady on the other end was as dismayed as I was.I suppose Qantas stopped buying seats in partners during the pandemic and hasn’t beefed up their operations yet (if they...

Thanks XWu, I was afraid of the immigration and second security wait times. Sounds like the same _hole it was 2 decades ago. What annoys me the most is that Qantas website seems to think it’s ok to have a 45min transfer!! I have to call and get it fixed to the 2 hour transfer as it’s ...

Anyone else sick and tired of encountering those great big staff wheelie bags in the overhead compartment of the rotten 737 J class?It’s not like I board last… but every flight recently has had at least one and it takes up so much room! Those bags wouldn’t even make the cut if ...

What’s the go with Qantas pax transferring at SYD these days? QF Domestic to QF International and QF International to QF Domestic? It’s been 10 years since I’ve been forced to fly out that way. I have had a burning hatred of SYD for more than 20 years and have avoided it for the...

1. I’m not spending my Victorian money in Queensland. I’m supporting LOCAL.2. I can’t trust that trigger happy, narcissistic Polly not to have another knee jerk reaction. I also have heard many reports of how there is no distancing, no tracking and no personal covid hygiene up t...

Originally Posted by TimHughes Does not matter if Qatar airways was at fault or not. Or if all of the blame sits with Qatari authorities. How can we feel safe flying through that airport every again? We should be clear as to what "internal exams of women" means. It means unwanted and forced handl...

A stainless steel “water” bottle may be required. It was effective on BA Eu flights last year (where service and offerings are worse than JQ)Just remember to keep it upright (maybe in the seat back pocket) and remember you will need to release the pressure when the seatbelt sign is tu...

As your flights are on the same itinerary and they are all Lufthansa, it works extremely well.However, anyone changing airlines and/or on separate tickets: give yourself at least 3 hours. It takes ages to change carriers that have no easy interline agreement.

Actually, all this proves is that Qantas needs to provide first class passengers (not platinum on economy tickets) a separated area or separate lounge exclusively for Qantas first class passengers only.If it is for Qantas first class only, and excludes frequent flyers on business and economy tick...

I agree with Rod. If you pay a premium for a premium product you expect to get that premium product.I have also experienced similar disappointment with Emirates (and other airlines). I don't fly those by choice, nor does my family nor my employees on business travel. The only time I end up on one...
