Qantas’ new lounge guesting rules explained
May 19, 2023, 10:28 AMI can totally understand the change, and I give it 12 months and only Platinum and J passengers will retain the perk, while Qantas Club and Gold needing to have their guest a member also, which will of course be no perk at all and a revenue raising upgrade for the QF group. It all comes down to s...

Check out Qantas’ new menu for domestic, international flights
Mar 22, 2023, 04:56 PMTotally, totally agree. At least having the choice of an supplemental 'menu' would be an improvement rather than adding a salad dish to the catering offered.

Bait and switch: should you be compensated for an inferior seat?

Feb 26, 2023, 05:59 AMGreat comprehensive article. Agree with some, appears very claustrophobic given the length of the flights these seats are designed for.

It is simply a combination of the above comments, with some passengers feeling they are entitled to bring on bigger and more hand luggage than allowable (presumably through non diligence of airline staff at boarding gates) than the other mere mortals t...

Qantas flying a fuel-laden Boeing 747 to Auckland
Sep 21, 2017, 05:06 PMSeems to me, quite an embarrassment in modern aviation. AKL airport staff will soon be hand pumping fuel from imported 44 gallon barrels to get the aircraft in the air. What a joke!.

Velocity Account suspended
Sep 16, 2017, 07:28 AMI had a similar experience, but different. I had a credit with Virgin Australia a few years ago due to a flight cancellation and this credit was accessed and used by a third party without my knowing. This mystery passenger was based overseas. The credit was refunded to me after a l...

Why Qantas didn't fit 2-4-2 economy seating to the Boeing 787-9
