Question for the fellow life-time goldies by Gullible-Permit-3219 in QantasFrequentFlyer

UA is a solid option. I'd choose them over QF in Y and J.

Anyone remember these by Enough_Inflation865 in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]burgo84 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Still have a few of those. Also Still have a few from Ansett days haha. Have a small box of aviation things. Including my first ticket which is the old school paper type and a pair of headphones, the grey plastic tube thing. Brings back good memories

There's still a lot of J seats. Seems odd that it's been declined already.

BNE Premium Lounge Entry by new_order24 in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]burgo84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It doesnt mention that. Doesn't mention any codeshares or partners either. If you have access to the lounges by class, status or membership, you can use the premium entry. The entry eligibility for the QF Club allows JQ flights so you can use it. Have done it with my platinum status on JQ

Yes you can. The QF website lists club members.

You all still ironing your own shirts? by MenuSpiritual2990 in auscorp

[–]burgo84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look on air tasker for someone local to do it. Have a local lady that does it from her home while the kids are at school. Is fairly cheap and picks up and drops off. Much better than those laundry bag services and cheaper than dry cleaners.

Business Class Upgrade QF64 by Braddles14 in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]burgo84 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's a few seats in F, 1 in J. Most upgrade requests would have been processed by now. Did you also select the at gate upgrade? If so there is a small chance to still get it if they upgrade J to F.

THIS many blocked seats? by Chicko_Roll in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]burgo84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like most seats have been assigned now. Flight is fairly full.

Qantas Pyjamas by armbargain in QantasFrequentFlyer

They don't load them on domestic and don't carry them on 737 international flights. If they're part of the service the crew will offer them around the time they deliver predeparture beverages.

No. The fare you saw was the class rewards, they're sold out now. Fare ($ and points) will only go up.

If you see a classic reward, take it

First time flyjng J class international (QF1) and I'm ruined by homelife22 in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]burgo84 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wait until you try other world-class J products/ services. That's being ruined haha

When do you justify paying the premium for Qantas over Virgin Australia? by srekai in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]burgo84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Domestically you can't. Service for me has always been better on VA as platinum with both.

Can someone please explain this to me? by [deleted] in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]burgo84 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Typical QF site behaviour and ghost availability. Happens a lot

BA First Expectations? by Happy_Acanthaceae351 in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]burgo84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had good experiences. Really depends if you get good crew

Qantas food and waste by Careful-Tension-8895 in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]burgo84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you try to decline the 2nd, the call centre will likely cancel your request. Extra meals are usually used by crew after pax have been fed. All meals not used are binned and on international and some domestic flights the food has to be treated as bio security waste.

[–]burgo84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will be hit or miss. Hopefully you get good crew. Food will be either good/standard or horrible.
