Now showing all sold out

A notification popped up for me, and I joined pretty much immediately after the story went live on Instagram, but still only showing about 1/3 of the queue ‘progress bar’. Not holding out much hope

Do it all again tomorrow?

A bit late notice, but 2 x general passes expiring this Saturday 20th May. Free to a good home. PM me. Edit: passes claimed. Thanks

SYD>MNL (QF19) 8-April First time flying QF J internationally: usually fly with VA partners. CSM Mark was impeccable and the perfect balance between professional and fun and engaging. Delays out of Syd due to winds dropping operations to a single runway. Captain made several detailed...

I have an upcoming PER>BNE on the all Y-class 737-7 in a few weeks. Due to schedule, unfortunately can't change. Thinking of getting row 3. @Pilotdude09 would love to know how you went and if it's indeed proper extra legroom.

Have passed through MEL lounge for breakfast a few times in the last couple of weeks. They've had a hybrid of self-serve and counter service....but all from the same counter. As an example, on Sunday, enter the line from the end closest to reception. First up is a chilled cabinet with the usual...

Flew MEL-ADL last week on VA213, flown by VH-YVA. In the seat pocket was a card with a QR code to access the streaming entertainment, without needing to download the app. All announcements only referenced app, but the card looked to be in every seat pocket. The app was working on my iPad, but on...

VA242 ADL - MEL 19:40 28th Dec. Partner had the same chicken dish as above, with penne rather than rigatoni. I opted for the vegetarian mushroom dish, described as ‘baked mushroom with barley’, was very tasty. Both the mushroom and barley were well cooked: neither over-done and mushy or...

Is there a separate area for SQ vs. Marhaba customers? Or literally multiple entrances feeding into the same one area. I read a quote from SQ pre-switch-over saying there would be a dedicated area, but not sure if that's actually eventuated. Sounds like it'll be crowded, but could work in my...

Hi, Apologies if this belongs in a different forum. Mods, feel free to shift if so. Question for the brains trust is how many J awards does MH release to QFF for their intra-Asia flights? I'm looking to travel TPE>HKG>KUL in a couple of months (mid Sept) and am interested in trying MH J-class...

Rather tasty pork (char siu style) ramen, with optional egg, in OOL for lunch today. Was rather impressed with the OOL lounge today actually. Couple of delayed flights so it was pretty busy, but they had three staff clearing tables, one on coffee and one serving ramen. Plus a little platter of...

Having held SG for 6 years, I’m very much in the ‘for’ camp not only for lifetime status, but for backdating. However, while I support a lot of what VA do, the idea does slightly concern me. If the innacuracies in their annual end-of-year “you’ve flown X miles, putting you in the top X% of...

In MEL lounge this morning. Left at noon and no sign of hot lunch unfortunately. Only soup on offer, although admittedly a much nicer setup/presentation than I’ve seen for a while. Two soup options (potato+leek and miso chicken and vegetable) with mini rolls in a multi-tiered bread basket.

Interestingly, just noticed on the Flybuys page the same 15% bonus, but with a different promotional period; 1st June 2019 to 9th June 2019.
