    No-Doz, The Driver's Friend.

    Renato, I assume you're simply trolling people with this thread. But if you're not, here's my $0.02: If you feel that you cannot drive safely without the use of stimulants, you shouldn't drive. If you feel that it is your advancing age that is limiting your ability to drive, you should...

    Aquire 50% extra Status Credits and double Aquire points offer

    How very interesting indeed... And yet ..."if you’re reading this it may very well be because of my poor spelling or grammar. My spelling and grammar is pretty poor at the best of times. But I hope you won’t be disappointed to find this is primarily supposed to be a travel blog."

    Aquire 50% extra Status Credits and double Aquire points offer

    Thanks for all your patronizing opinions and donating your very valuable time by deigning to respond to my query. I think I was pretty clear with my questions. I reject the assertion that I have been disingenous. If you thought the question was invalid, you could have simply not wasted your...

    Aquire 50% extra Status Credits and double Aquire points offer

    Oh I'm sorry - you didn't read ALL of the fine print when you were quoting it in your answer to me? Oh and I don't care about bonus points, I was only asking about the SCs. And I was asking for clarification, not to be berated.

    Aquire 50% extra Status Credits and double Aquire points offer

    Thanks - that's how I read it too, but as I said, another forum, another person suggested otherwise... And no one here has actually had the bonus SC appear yet? Very early, I know, but other bonus SC offers take only 2-3 days in my experience.

    Aquire 50% extra Status Credits and double Aquire points offer

    Not sure why you're ranting, but hey go ahead. Be as patronising as you want. The reason I ask is because it was mentioned on another FF thread that it's only one leg of a booking because of the fine print below. I wanted to know if anyone had actually booked/flown/received the bonus. Yes I...

    Aquire 50% extra Status Credits and double Aquire points offer

    Couple of silly questions 1. The bonus SC are only on the first leg of an itinerary? ie BNE-LAX-BNE would only earn the bonus SC on the BNE-LAX leg? 2. The offer is available for more than one segment during the offer period? Sounds silly, I know, but not explicitly stated in in T&C like other...

    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic award seats?

    I was willing to pay revenue for one seat, but just wanted to save a few (thousand) bucks on the other...! Will try again tomorrow, but suspect that it's no use. That's fine, I'll try for an award release for later in the year!

    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic award seats?

    Could someone shed some light? I've just called the help desk for the first time to try and get 1 or 2 J flight SYD-YVR and SFO-SYD released for this Dec/Jan. Short notice I know. There are plenty of I class available but the droid is saying no and the helpdesk lady, is saying she can't even...

    Flying Emirates? Start Training Now........

    And we have reached Godwin's law - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law There is no way your experience of international travel even remotely bears comparison with the horrors of the holocaust (or more pertinently, any other more recently displaced group of people). Grow up Renato ...

    Flying Emirates? Start Training Now........

    I believe this would be best described as anecdotal evidence (level 4) and the statistical analysis applied within is not adequate and should be rejected. Yes, it wasn't the best experience. Yes, it was uncomfortable. Try not to let it ruin the rest of your holiday. It's all part of the rich...

    Where does your AFF username come from?

    All of my pets have been named after greek or roman mythological entities. So their names are good to use for handles etc...

    To travel insure or not.......Wow, this is worth a read!

    Wow. Just, wow. Just curious as to how far along in the pregnancy should a woman put her feet up? And can you let my husband know too?

    Three medical emergencies in three flights - how lucky are we?

    Can you let everyone know when you're flying again please? Three out of three must mean you are some sort of super-jinx! ;) And I neither want to get sick on your flight, or have to help on flight (I will if I have to, but I'd rather sleep!) Sheesh - what a lucky run you've had though - no...
