I too have problems with Catch. ....this response dated 12th August Thanks for contacting us about your missing points with Catch dated 11 March 2020. We're looking into your query now, and we’ll be back in touch within 10 business days, which is today. Just had a look and my purchase is not...

That's what I read as well. It appears the Australian arm of CMV is in administration too.

Yes, I stayed near the airport because I had the 6 am flight.

I live in Adelaide, but last year I flew EK out of Melbourne so I could get the morning A380 flight to DXB in J using FF points. Not much point going on it during the night, as I was able to sit up at the bar and partake of coughtails with other flyers. Way to go I say.

I have flown MEL-SIN J class in Qantas and Emirates. Emirates was far better than Qantas re the food, drinks, service.

The wines list was very extensive for a small restaurant.

Thank you for your TR GarrettM. I am enjoying it immensely, as I spent just one day in Hoi An and DaNang at the end of January whilst on a cruise. I would like to return and spend more time there one day, but will satisfy myself with your report for now. Meant to say that I am enjoying your...

I have recently returned home from an overseas holiday. I upgraded to Business Class Qantas Melbourne-Singapore using QFF points. I was very disappointed with the service, menu and drinks served. I was assured by a friend in the airline industry that I would be served French champagne, and...

Back in Oct 1983, five of us were travelling from ADL to DPS via MELB (no direct flights in those days) via Garuda. We left ADL early Sunday am and were due to fly out around 11 am. About 10 am an announcement was made that the plane had blown a tyre whilst in SYD and they did not know when...
