    The Operational Upgrade Thread

    Partner and I got a couple of opups from Y to Y+ for HKG-SGN (at the boarding gate) and SGN-HKG (at check-in) early Feb. Busy Chinese New Year period.

    The Operational Upgrade Thread

    QF8071 (DXB-CDG) from Y to J a couple of weeks ago. It was my 2nd ever flight with EK.

    The Operational Upgrade Thread

    Two op-ups for me in July: MH31 (IST-KUL): Y to J (handed the new BP at the aircraft door) QF6 (SIN-SYD): Y to Y+ @ the check-in lounge.

    Famous people seen (or even met) whilst flying or lounging

    Who knows... Research also indicates that people use their phone (or pretend to) to avoid a confrontational or awkward situation.

    Leaving Helsinki airport on long transit - check through luggage?

    It's all very smooth. Weather-wise, I assume it could be cold-ish and wet.

    QANTAS forges Emirate tie

    Some people have commented on the possibility of QF shifting its hub out of SIN. Then what is the point for QF's refurbishment of its First Lounge at SIN?

    Thank you so much AA for the love. My name has just appeared on the Upgrade List for a flight from ELP to DFW. This is the second op-up from Y to F in a week.

    The Operational Upgrade Thread

    An unexpected op-up from Y to F with AA for a quick hop from MCI to DFW. Only saw my name (together with another colleague's, both WPs) on the upgrade list at the boarding gate a few minutes before boarding.

    Brendan Nelson in Canberra J Lounge. I am surprised he's not in the CL.

    Leaving Helsinki airport on long transit - check through luggage?

    Lucky you. The cold weather and the bright sky at 2-3am were definitely 'different'. Also, the 'you' in my previous comment was meant to be for BJReplay :)

    Leaving Helsinki airport on long transit - check through luggage?

    The Finnair Bus will cost you €6.20 each way. It leaves from platform 10 in front of T2 and arrives at platform 30, next to the Central Railway Station. I was there last week and it was pretty cold for the whole week (plus drizzling for a couple of days). I hope it'll be nice and sunny for you...

    Michelle Bridges from the Biggest Loser in SYD F Lounge on Friday 1 June. This hot woman is having a few glasses of bubbly with her breakfast as we speak.

    CX bookings now showing in QF MMB

    I've made 3 bookings with CX recently. The 2 direct bookings on the CX site show up in my QF account, whilst the 3rd booking done by TA doesn't. I can't add it to my account either.

    747 Crew Rest seats appearing as the bulkhead

    I am pretty sure that the armrests are immovable in the bulkhead row. 40G is my favourite seat when I travel solo in Y.

    New safety video

    No JT for ADL-SYD and SYD-CBR yesterday. As others have noted: the video was disjointed, & the pilot did his job ok (could have been a tad smoother).
