• Generally speaking if it is better for the airline it is generally worse for its frequent flyer program members. Let's not forget Classic plus is all the rage now. You hardly see any QF classic redemptions on long haul. Qantas has gotten away with a mega devaluation. It's a race to the bottom! Kr...

  • Flew J class Syd Dps and what a ordinary experience. No lounge expected that so went to Amex. Wife recently diagnosed Celiac. Noted on a plat FF profile and booking via Amex for GF meal. On board advised sorry to Gluten free options can get you some chips. Is it that hard to get a special meal? A...

  • How uninspiring yet another overnight flight that runs within 2 hours of existing flights. How I miss the daylight QF 32 service! Lately I've found a single overnight from Europe is much less taxing on your body. Loved the FCO PER early evening arrival to SYD. Love that SQ has two daylight options.

  • Another nail for the price of loyalty... Platinum members are not going to be happy with the co payment even when the seat selection opens up. Glad to see velocity still keeps this perk. It's little things like this that really make you wonder if it is worth being loyal to qf. I bet there is...

  • And this is the reason why the Krisflyer program beats the QFFF program hands down!...meanwhile QF - 2 flights from Sydey (A380/A330) and Melb (A330) and I think 1 from Perth on a 737 and Brisbane 1 (A330). Cairns/Adelaide 0. And all flights back from Singapore are within a 3-4 hour window...I fi...

  • Many years back I had a relative come to Syd on a brand new 747-400. So it has been done. QF had a ridiculous return fare at the time. I just don't recall if it was ex Boeing or LA or SF.

  • Focus seem to be in China and HK. VA should consider India and partner with SQ there. Only AI flys once a day and they could have one aircraft on rotation. VA has better chance of competing with AI than QF and CX. Also a lot of Indian traffic don't want to fly AI. I guess it all comes down to yie...
