This will cause an earthquake at Red Bull. IMO he is much more valuable to the team that VER. His design genius will lift whichever team he chooses to go to, and he can pretty much name his own price. And just when we thought the Horner incident had been put to rest… This article suggests he can...

Cant comment on VA but the QF website suggests you’ll get 140 sc and minimum 10400 points each way. QF is not generous on QR flights. from the QF website https://www.qantas.com/au/en/frequent-flyer/calculators.html 1713936426 Cant comment on VA but the QF website suggests you’ll get 140 sc and...

Apparently Emirates is building a dedicated lounge which will make departures for eligables much better. The current share lounge is very crowded. Also BA is starting flights to Florence, Nice and Ibiza from there in the northern summer.

My DXB - STN flight last week had a very worn 777. Unless you’re going to the nearby counties I’d avoid it. It’s a coughpy low cost airline airport.

On QF41 ATM. Must be a Ballerina in 1K

Tell them you have a Police record. Outlandos d'Amour, Regatta de Blanc, or even just their Greatest Hits.

In the 50’s my father was on a jury in ( colonial ) Nigeria. They found the man guilty. He was sentenced to Death. Something he thought about for decades after.

IMO it’s bluster. If the RB investigation into the source of the text leaks forces Helmut Marco’s resignation where would VER go ?. I think his stated loyalty to Marco is not as great as his desire to win races, and Mercedes don’t have the hard product to offer this atm. An interesting game of...

Qatar only usually release economy flights on QF awards, and there may well be none available within your search parameters. You could confirm this by trying dates outside the month of June ? Also it is Haj to Mecca 14-19th June.

A power struggle that I think Horner will win. My understanding of the situation is that Dietrich Mateschitz had a 49% share of the drinks company Red Bull and his Thai Partner Chalerm Yoovidhya the remaining 51%. However Mateschitz had a deed giving him overall control of the decisions. This...

They’re on Skyscanner. $1800 AUD o/w at Easter, but an overnight stay in FRA. I can’t seem to find the flight via FCO which would avoid this.

Last September I was flying QF SYD to JNB connecting to BA to LHR on a J award ticket. QF63 was running late ( or rather the flight that would become QF63 ) meaning I’d miss the connection in JNB. I got a text the night before saying they had rebooked me on QR through DOH to LHR. Win win for me...

No compensation sorry. Flights from outside EU/UK to destinations outside EU/UK are not covered by EU/UK 261…and Australian regulations just says tough.
