Where does Qantas source their IT staff for their website?
I am in Melbourne on 8th Feb and looking for a hotel. In Qantas Hotels I see Holday Inn on Flinders showing full rate at $350.00 but QF managed to get it for $400.00. Thank you QF

But thanks for timely reminder that Qanats Hotels are not always cheap.

Attempting to book CBR-PER using points;
Funny that CBR/PER via MEL goes up to 52000 points!!!
None available via SYD; althought from SYD there are plenty of availability, and only for 36000 points in J (even those via MEL).
Weird!

Just noticed these flights via MEL:
QF851/QF777 is 26000 in Y
QF477/QF769 is 18000!
Flights via SYD are all 18000 (inc. QF577)
How can this be?
On a different search CBR-SYD, I could pick J on QF564 and QF704, both in time to connect with QF577.
Do you think the rewards desk would waive the $50 fee on these as they are available, but not online?

There seems to be a bit of a screw up with the number of points required for upgrades at the moment, too.
http://www.qantas.com.au/fflyer/dyn/...oints/upgrades
I hope I'm reading it wrong but the table now says a SYD-PER upgrade from full Y to J is 15000 points. Previously it was 10000.
Also note what must surely be a typo where an upgrade in zone 4 is actually less points from discount Y than full Y.

Feature request - child booking
For the Qantas lurkers out there - how about designing the booking engine so that if I book a ticket for a child, that by default a child's meal is entered into the 'special request' section. Currently you have to go into 'manage my booking' and add the child's meal in after the booking has been completed.
