Great, thanks

QF WP travelling from London in a couple of weeks. QF flight number on EK metal. Does the QF flight number get me access to OW lounges (eg Cathay F) or would it need to be a OW operated flight? I’m happy enough if limited to QF/EK lounges, just wanted to check options.

In Hong Kong for the next 4 hours. Currently in Wing F, might head over to Pier F soon. Think I can guest 1, not sure if needs to be on the same flight (CX101)

Except you don't the sticker off when the children aren't on board, so emergency services waste time looking for children who aren't there...

Will be in the SYD F Lounge on 23rd (for QF1) and SIN F lounge on 24th (next day's QF1 service) if anyone wants to say hi, but have the family with me so can't guest unfortunately.

I grew up very close to RAF Cosford in the UK, so always have a soft spot for that one

At the bottom of the website there is an "Enquiries and Feedback" link. When you navigate through the drop down menus one of the "enquiry" categories is for a "passport application update". It took a couple of days for them to respond, but at least they did so.

Finally got my son's child passport 11 weeks after lodgment. Trying to contact the passport office was a nightmare - it took countless tries just to get in the call waiting queue (all other calls just had a message telling me to call back again before disconnecting, although they make you trawl...

I lodged my son's application on 23 Feb. Received notification that it was complete on 5 May (10 weeks). Now just waiting for Aus Post to deliver the damn thing!

@Fergo747 That was the same menu for my return QF1/2 trip in April. Generally pretty good, but agree that the lamb loin was basically inedible.

My recent LHR-DRW flight in J had a great crew, including fantastic CSM who gave a personal greeting (seemingly to P1 and WP pax) and was able to source me an amenity kit when none had been handed out. By contrast the DRW-SYD leg was very ordinary - nearly 2 hrs to serve a bowl of soup and no...
