flight delays

PK was supposedly to begin a regular timetabled passenger-carrying service from Lahore to Sydney. On Sunday 3 April 2022, SYD's (airport) site shows outbound PK9809 to LHE as 'cancelled'. Apparently PK hasn't yet received CASA permission to fly into (and out of) Oz, so the airline's wish for...

Hi all, Today I received emails regarding re-ticking by Qantas for flights on Emirates Airline. Basically, all the effected flights were booked as Qantas Classic Rewards. below is the text of the email. Information only - No action required Booking reference...

So for my first time flying Rex (from PER to ALH) I was due to leave at 7:10 PM, about an hour after it was due to depart we were informed the flight would be rescheduled to 7:30 AM the following day due to the inbound plane breaking down and having to bring a standby plane into operation...

Anyone been successful at getting compensation for JQ for a delay? The Jetstar compensation policy states: Source: https://www.jetstar.com/au/en/help/articles/compensation-and-refunds We had a recent flight where we were delayed 3 hours and 19 minutes. No meal vouchers were offered by JQ at...

Last week I had to attend a funeral in BNE with just a few days notice. It was my first flight in over 2 years. The usual CNS to BNE Qantas 6am flight was not available...seems this is the one they always cancel...so booked a 7am Jetstar which would arrive in time, thinking at least I can go to...

I made an online booking that used a flight credit and I had to pay the fare difference which was only about $70. I used an Amex card which for some reason didn't seem to go through because I did not receive the ticket - no charge was showing in my Amex account. So I called and payed the $70 by...

Finally, a travel question! I’ve got SYD-HND-LHR booked as a J classic award for November. It’s been over 2 days now and it still hasn’t ticketed. No response from QF on social media and two calls now where I have up at 2 hours and 4 and a half hours on hold. No offer of a callback. How...

Any ideas why VA1435 PER-DRW today 16 June diverted to Katherine/RAAF Tindal of all places? I happen to be in Katherine and drove out to the terminal just to tick it off my list an hour before the diversion.

How long should I wait before contacting QF to ask where the ticket is for a classic reward flight that I booked yesterday? Fees have landed on my amex and booking in my app straight away but 24 hours later points not debited and ticket not issued.

GF is not a regularly timetabled 'own metal' airline to and from Australia but during COVID-19, iut's been here at least once IIRC. On Sunday 7 February 2021, GF259, a proposed 1445 hours SYD - BAH has been cancelled.

I got confirmation emails last Friday for three bundled eBay purchases in early December, which had been pending for the preceding month as normal. As of today, six days later, the points still haven't arrived in my Velocity account. In the past, it's never been more than one or two business...

Hi all, was just wondering, how long does it usually take for Amex to refund an annual fee? Card was cancelled October, and they said remaining balance of annual fee would be refunded. No response/refund for a few months - online chat at end of December, said they would follow up. To this day...

Not a post one thought would ever be written, but during coronavirus, a number of unusual airlines (for Australia) have called in. On Saturday 16 January 2021, UB9802 from SYD to KOE (which I had to look up - Kupang (West Timor, Indonesia) was the 1000 hours that departed at 1104 so it may be...

On Friday 13 November 2020, QH97, the 1455 hours mid afternoon SYD to HAN has been cancelled.

Just received this email and not sure what to think. I had long since given up. Hi, I ask both of you to respond to this email individually, thank you. This email concerns the flight delay reimbursement that IfDelayed has taken care of for you. Attached you can find the judgement given in...

Can't be certain, but QH89 on Wednesday 23 September 2020 may have been the first time Vietnamese carrier Bamboo Airways has taken off from Australia., in its case from MEL. The flight to SYD and on to VCA (which I had to look up, but it's in southern Vietnam) was the 0925 hours that did not...

During coronavirus on Monday 27 July 2020, QQ4031, an early bird 0535 hours BNE down to SYD was cancelled, as was QQ4307 at a proposed 1440 hours on the same southbound route. I haven't previously noticed Alliance Airlines operating on this route (although elsewhere, despite being about 20 per...

The special repatriation flight from Uruguay's MVD on Saturday 11 April 2020 to MEL took off at 0137 hours. While not shown publicly as far as I can see, my guess for arrival at Tulla is around 0600 on Easter Sunday 12 April 2020. This flight is 5M751, operated by A343 9H-SUN. It has...

Only small numbers of international flights are operating to and from Oz during coronavirus, and the way the Prime Minister, Premiers and health advisers are talking, this could be further minimised given the almost blanket prohibition on Australians departing our shores. On Friday 3 April...

Hi all, flying return to Europe on Thai in April/May originally on the flight home we had a 3 hour stop. Just got an email today saying the flight has been changed and its now a 26 hour stop! Wondering if anyone has any idea on what our options are? Could we hit the airline up for a hotel...
