Qantas now offers early check-in at LAX
Mar 17, 2023, 05:14 PMWouldn't it be fantastic if they had this (reintroduced this?) option at Heathrow? It has been such a bunfight my last few flights, with queues snaking back into the thoroughfare causing havoc. If there was early check-in, it would smooth out chaos a little. I seem to remember that pre covid you ...

What was your best upgrade?
Jan 07, 2022, 05:18 PMMy one woman protest against Mr Trump was to not visit the US while he was in power, and Covid-19 has kept me in check since, so my upgrade story must be from 2015 or 2016.The trip was Syd -> LAX -> JFK. I am not sure if I was QFF Gold or had just clawed my way to Platinum for the first tim...

Haneda, Tokyo - Qantas early arrival
Apr 19, 2023, 02:55 PMHi,All my previous trips to Tokyo have landed at Narita in the afternoon. With Qantas now switched to Haneda, the early arrival - 05:25 - is possibly problematic, given Japanese hotels are less happy with you arriving very early with baggage, even if just to hold prior to check-in. I don't expect...

Qantas Double Status Credits offer has landed!
Mar 26, 2023, 01:22 PMHi ryanpst,Qantas sometimes only offer the DSC to a targetted membership. So, regrettably you may be out of luck. While I got the email, I first noticed the offer in the Qantas app, and was successful in being able to register through that. I screen-shotted the in app acknowledgment but didn't ne...

Noise cancelling - Ear buds or Headphones?
Jan 15, 2023, 06:23 PMHi sunnybrae,There are a couple of things to consider with noise cancelling earbuds. Are you using them just to NC or are you also wanting to watch some of the in-flight entertainment (IFE)?I switched from headphones to earbuds, like you, for the comfort factor. I have some old BOSE QuietComfort2...

Qantas Pass Dramas
Apr 03, 2022, 12:19 AMHi dwrj,Glad you finally got it sorted in time, if only after a lot of frustration and listening to the less than fabulous hold music. At least they have cut down the number of repetitive voice interruptions. And thanks to the speaker phone I could do other things during MY 2 hours on hold.I was ...

And I would find the info on the Oneworld site and print it out if I were you, and have it handy. I have read in the past of people getting grief at chec...
