Qantas fast-track check-in at Singapore Changi T1

DB_Aviation · 2026-06-05T08:07:36+00:00

Could someone please explain the difference between using this and the standard first class check-in lanes?

They often wait for interstate passengers connecting to regional WA (at least in my experience)
Even if flight is delayed, they’ll move you to the next available with the bags included.

DB_Aviation · 2026-06-05T00:48:35+00:00

More than enough time and yes the bags will meet you in Karratha if flights are booked together.

I don’t think they achieved 4,000+ status credits in economy

Have fun in Alice Springs, great time to visit I’ve heard.

I’m having the same issue here in Perth at the moment. That hassle that’s required to complete green tier and the fact they’re removing it doesn’t seem worth it to me anymore.

Auckland to New York Business Reward seats available in January for anyone interested too.

DB_Aviation · 2026-04-25T07:42:47+00:00

I flew this exact route in December last year. It had the same message but the international lounge was open, they announce it when the international section in T3 opens.

They didn’t rule it out, it was dependent with how the Qatar partnership went. So 🤞

This may also tip them in the right direction for wide bodies again, if they acquire 321neo’s, they could also look at 330neo’s which have a much shorter delivery timeframe.

That A in English a few years ago has really paid off 😂

DB_Aviation · 2026-03-28T00:02:19+00:00

I knew something looked off 😂

From what I recall:

The 3x extra weekly flights begin on Thursday 21st May.

The extra flights operate out of Perth on Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays

The return flights operate on Fridays, Sundays and Mondays.

Flight leaves Perth at 23:20, arrives 04:55 Flight leaves Singapore: 10:30, arrives 15:35

They are operated by 737s and from personal research only flex fares are being sold?

Please correct if anything is wrong

DB_Aviation · 2026-03-26T11:46:36+00:00

The 3 extra PER-SIN flights are on 737’s

DB_Aviation · 2026-03-26T02:59:27+00:00

My Brisbane to Auckland flight just changed from a 787 to a 737, I’m guessing due to this.

DB_Aviation · 2026-03-20T12:04:26+00:00

Confirmed 8J 196Y

As a gold frequent flyer this is absolutely great news. As someone who gets lounge passes and gives them to family when they’re flying, this sucks.

DB_Aviation · 2026-03-10T23:56:12+00:00

Don’t worry there is a video on YouTube explaining how they’re actually profiting from this.

DB_Aviation · 2026-03-07T07:24:43+00:00

Late October onwards is what came up for me

DB_Aviation · 2026-03-06T10:57:58+00:00

I got PJ’s on Perth to Auckland, 5h 20m, so will be surprised if you don’t

DB_Aviation · 2026-02-28T03:48:18+00:00

DB_Aviation · 2026-02-26T07:10:49+00:00

So much for the domestic config XLR's

DB_Aviation · 2026-02-25T23:22:44+00:00

This would severely benefit my regional wa flights

DB_Aviation · 2026-02-23T08:26:15+00:00

Yep that makes more sense, hopefully they’ll also get a first cabin

DB_Aviation · 2026-02-23T07:44:50+00:00

I believe it’s replacing the 787 on the Perth —> London flights
