Qantas to release thousands of Classic Reward seats in Y, PE, J, F on 24 Feb 2023 around 11am

[MelbFlyer]

Not sure why Qantas have omitted the "D" in AEST - it's a bit confusing otherwise.

It should be 11am AEDST (NSW / VIC / ACT / TAS) -
ie.
10:30am ACDT (SA)
10am AEST (QLD)
9:30am ACST (NT)
8am AWST (WA)?

The seats are well and truly out there though. Released early. Site crashed.

Use the Qantas app to book if you can. It is still working for now....

Quite a few J seats to/from LHR/CDG in Nov/Dec with Cathay

Safe option to fly CX these days? (just checking before I dump a hash job of an itinerary for a straight run with them that's also a lot cheaper points)

I just flew with Cathay a few months ago (December / Jan) on a cash fare, no issues.

When I started my trip, you needed a negative RAT done @ HK airport before entering HK.

When I finished my trip, RAT tests were no longer required.

If you're just talking about in general and not COVID related, it's fine - things are pretty much back to normal in HK apart from the still high use of masks - typical in Asia still.

If you're just transitting in HK and not entering HK, you're all good.

Safari, Chrome, App all down for me. 16 min on hold using USA toll free # (assuming P1 gets equal priority if they use that?)

SYD-LHR in First dropped early. Then gone again.

14 minutes to go.

'Sorry, we seem to have given all the server money to the C-suite, and this website is toast. " What a farce.

Not Long to go, I can't wait for the impending website crash!

I booked syd-hkg and bne-hkg on CX J for 4. I was surprised by that as I could not see availability in AA and AS. I would have thought QF seats would have been released.

You're a bit late.

Some routes definitely dropped early. Picked some seats up to LHR. Plenty of other dates seem to have come and gone.

Not for me

Me neither

I just booked a flight, got up to the entering my credit card details, which I did, and then when I hit next I got the 500 error . So my booking has been created (I have a booking number) but it didn't deducted the QFF points and when I try and manage the booking it just gives me an error page.

 

[Spizz]

I can't even check my existing bookings. Website is getting slammed.

 

[kingzac]

This is going to be chaos in a few minutes. Site already crashing. Surely they knew this would happen?

It's ok I had no plans to get any rewards seats, so all good for me.

SYD-SFO is an automatic 500 server error, SYD-LAX still working okay on the app
