23-hour marathon: Qantas set for Sydney-New York flights
May 13, 2023, 07:59 AMNot sure which country you're talking about, but if it's Canada, no Canadian airport has a separate terminal for any American airline. In Toronto there's a separate area for US/preclearance in Terminal 1, and in Vancouver it's in the main (only) building as well. No separate terminals.

Would Qantas devalue its frequent flyer points?
May 23, 2020, 12:24 AMI recently contacted Qantas FF on behalf of a friend who lives in Cyprus, is a Qantas FF member, and is not on the internet (yes, they exist; he's 70). He normally comes to Australia once a year, but with the borders firmly shut it's unlikely he'll be able to come anytime soon (not an Australian)...
