• It’s always interesting to read different views on time to fly. I am flying QF11 next Feb (before change) “from” Brisbane via Sydney because A 330 has no PE and also arrives late in afternoon. And A 330 is a milk crate :) I don’t sleep really on long haul so prefer morning...

  • Brisbane -Chicago would be great but first up gotta replace the A 330 on the LAX route 

  • “for Qantas - ex BNE 2200 - arr LAX 1825!!!   This timing is horrible for connections, and/or picking up a rental car to drive inland, in winter its dark and not conducive to driving the unknown highways in LAX.  “Totally agree but seems most people actually enjoy night...

  • Also fly out to South Africa on March 17th and flight still going at this stage . Of interest , I decided to look on expert flyer for how many seats were booked and there are some solid numbers still but have never seen so many blocked out seats even in economy. I am not talking about “ preferred...

  • After 5 different “operators” over 10 hrs of open chat message the last one simply said “yep can fix that” and it was changed within 5 mins. Lesson learnt anyway and all good now

  • Thanks. Entered FF at booking time . I would not have been concerned at all until after “talking” to Qantas Online help they said I could not change name and etc as stated. You would hope, perhaps forlornly, that there and then she would have simply said that “Cath” will be fine but do realise th...
