    Experience with A380 Seat 16A

    I had 15K on QF2 a few months ago and did notice some slamming/thuds from the lav behind, might have been a slightly broken lav seat or some such causing extra commotion but definitely noticed it when trying to sleep. Otherwise a good seat tucked away back there

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    Just a quick question regarding a phone redemption I just made. Have J Award confirmed with F Award wait-listed on SQ866. What is the general consensus on confirming/ticketing? Was going to confirm but thought if the F was confirmed from wait-list would that then be cancelled and second payment...

    Qf 787 PE seat choice

    Confirm bulkhead is the go, the footrest works on a sort of ratchet system so you have some options, I'm 6"3" and had a reasonably comfortable trip SYD-HKG, otherwise I'd be going Window and building a pillow next as the next best option, possibly last row to not worry about reclining early(not...

    Believe the result only shows when there are live dates whereas the links from the user page can still be live with no bookable dates

    Double Status Credits (book by 5/2/18, fly 12/2/18 to 20/1/19)

    Thanks guys! would much rather have some breakfast bubbles in the lounge rather than run though the terminal so trying for an earlier flight seems like the plan :)

    Oversized check in luggage

    Have traveled with a bike bag int and dom with and without status for a decade or more now and never an issue, oversized is just counted as a standard bag unless over normal limits. You should be totally fine just watch the total weight

    QF lounge access for unaccompanied 17 yr old

    I seem to recall that due to the license starting at midday access was possible in the morning but that may have been speculation in a previous thread

    J/F flying - lounges and perks reviews

    Dennis is great! Even my girlfriend watches his video's, definitely the only flight review video's she would ever watch. How can you argue with classics like his BA J review! "the best seat for a solo business traveler, is on another airline"

    Loyalty bonus quandary, what do you do?

    This makes it much more interesting. Given my year ticks over July 31st it sounds like holding out until then and adding to next years SC might be the go (always a good feeling having some things booked in for the future.) had a dig through the loyalty bonus site and found this in the T&C's...
