Currently in QF 'F' at AKL if anyone is on QF146 and needs guesting. Cheers!

I took QF107 in January. Might be a time of year thing, but I was kerbside (bags and all) within 20 minutes of exiting the aircraft.

Re: Sucessful ASA Bookings booked at classic rates Reference Guide Month booked | Month travelled | Cabin | Route | Points cost | Co-pay* | Classic co-pay~ | Max points cost~ | SCs earned DEC 13 | JAN 13 | Y/J | SYD-BNE(Y), BNE-MEL-PER-KTA-PER-MEL-BNE-SYD (J) | 96,000 | $772.35 (incl. card fee)...

I'm headed to BLR in January and was pricing fares this morning. QF J: $11270. MH J: $3267. How can travelers justify QF given that kind of disparity?

Agreed! In particular, I am not a fan of the Quesadilla (apparently pronounced quiz-ar-dilla). I rate TT dining much better than trans-con.

re: Has anyone had success with the call-up method for "Marginal" xASA's? Success booking JASA for SYD-BNE-TSV return - 48,000 points + $356 (incl. $7 AMEX charge). I did not ring the 1300 number. I rang the number on the back of the WP card. Asked if the gentleman could put me through to...

Re: Qantas Cash ID check available at PO When I say my card arrived, I meant the old one. It's the same as the other one but it is darker for some reason.

Re: Qantas Cash ID check available at PO Mine arrived in the post this morning, so yours can't be far away!

I remember J being something ludicrously cheap as well. Clearly not so ludicrously cheap any more based on $7800 quote I got back!

Tried to book flights using s7.ru this morning SYD-DME return. Offering code-shares on Etihad.

As a rule, in our family, we don't inform each other of emergency situations UNLESS our returning is the only way that situation can be resolved, OR a family member does not have long to live, or has passed away. My mother travels forty weeks out of the year and is rarely in the same city for...

I disagree. Lufthansa's Flagship First Lounge at FRA is not a lounge, they operate a dedicated terminal for HON (pax who fly 600k miles every 2 years in J or F) and F pax. From experience, I'd say that at the very least, it is as good, if not a little better than QF F lounges at SYD or MEL.

Well, if they saw it they'd at least try to figure out who you are!

Match approved. Matched using LH Senator. Not sure if we get a card at all?

A couple of pieces by Roy Lichtenstein; the first one is meant to be a send up of trompe l’oeil paintings, the second one is entitled ‘Stepping out’: ‘Mao’ by Andy Warhol (I decided to take a photo that included its surroundings so you could get an idea of the sheer scale of this)...
