first class

First world problems.... So...this year...I have flown 21 times with American Airlines. Each and every time I get to the boarding area mayhem...I look at the board for "upgrades". Not once...in 21 times (since June'24) have I struck lucky. So.O have deduced....my Qantas Platinum...One world...

I have had several clients whom I told they were entitled to the QF F lounge be told at check by the checkin dragons and supervisor they CANNOT enter the QF F lounge . I had told them they could, and they stupidly believed the checkin dragons and did not try . any client who did try was...

Long haul premium cabin reviews in newspapers and the like are usually positive to gushing and conclude with '<Author> was a guest of <airline>'. One in the Oz on-line is a bit different. The writer flew Qantas first class MEL-LAX as a guest of a tech company and 'was upgraded by Qantas'...

One for the QF fans https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/news/qantas-worlds-best-first-class-cabin/

Hi all, I'm shortly about to fly QF First from SYD-LAX, and have a few questions: 1/ It's a classic reward, so will I still get a First host calling me the day before to book in a spa treatment? 2/ I have a connection from MEL-SYD (with ample layover). Will there be an offer for a First host to...

Hey everyone, quick question - I have a flight coming up booked on Qantas and have AA Advantage Platinum Pro status, will I have access to those one world emerald benefits on this QF flight? First check in, first lounge access and extra baggage? From from SYD to DPS. Thanks in advance!

Everyone on here is pretty helpful, so I thought I'd give back. I've just booked BNE-CTS business class and CTS-BNE first class. I could never find 1st class availability, but discovered that if I search for CTS-SYD instead of HND-SYD seats suddenly became available. I grabbed 2. There were...

Hi, I just wanted to check this is normal or an abnormal experience for me. I've recently booked a business classic reward flight from LAX to SYD. The app and site both tell me I'm not eligible for a classic reward upgrade to first class. The call centre advised of the same thing. I'm...

Sorry if it's been covered before and I know reward tickets will get lounge access but specifically will I get Al Safwa access after doing PER-DOH First class reward and then connecting to DOH-ATH Business reward on 787-8 which does not have first class section

I frequently travel from Melbourne (MEL) to Honolulu (HNL) via Sydney (SYD) with Qantas (QF). Typically, I only carry on my luggage. However, last month, I had checked baggage. Unfortunately, the Qantas International Check-In counters at Qantas' domestic Terminal 1 in Melbourne were unmanned...

Obvious preference would be someone who can take advantage of Q First lounges for international travel.

AFF Community, I’m looking to use my Qantas Frequent Flyer points to find two Emirates First Class Classic Rewards seats from MEL or SYD to Europe (preferably HAM) - one way. My issue is that there are a lot of options when I search for one seat, however when I search for two seats I don’t see...

This thread is partly inspired by this post on VFTW: https://viewfromthewing.com/airlines-hotels-hospitality/ The First Lounge is the flagship lounge for Qantas. To get in there, you need to either be flying First or have spent thousands of dollars with Qantas & partners to get Platinum...

It appears that to go with the launch of JL's new a350-1000 HND -JFK they have a new dedicated check in for first class passengers. They have stated that status won't grant access to this check in area. https://www.jal.co.jp/jp/en/inter/service/lounge/hnd/first/#ANC05 May be of use for anyone...

Hi All I have no status with Singapore Airlines. Back in August I booked an F saver award for Syd-Sin-Lhr departing mid April 2024. SQ 242 Syd-Sin 12hr layover then SQ318 Sin-Lhr Received an email to say that there has been an aircraft change. SQ242 has been changed from a B777 to an A350...

I'm flying Qatar first class to Doha then on Economy after that. I'm struggling to locate what lounge I'll have access to in Doha. Does the arrival class have any impact or only the next leg of the journey on Qatar? Platinum VA. Any help would be terrific :)

Air New Zealand is adding a dry-leased Cathay Pacific 777-300ER to its fleet from November 2023, for a fixed period of 3 years. The plane will be lightly painted to remove the CX branding and be crewed by Air New Zealand staff, but the cabin interior will be the CX interior. This aircraft has...

Have had a couple of LX F flights this year. Here are some pics of the meals

This notice was in today's Qantas Platinum newsletter: I hadn't really noticed before that you couldn't previously use Qantas points on JAL domestic routes in premium cabins. But it's also quite possible that I just never looked into it. Is this a new thing? FWIW I'm currently *only* seeing...
