    Hong Kong Dinner 11th June

    I'm in for dinner. Just putting out a couple of suggestions: Sai Kung Seafood Street, where we went in 2014, or I can thoroughly recommend Tung Po at Northpoint. There is a MTR station across the road. If you've ever seen the Anthony Bourdain episode on Hong Kong on No Reservations, Tung Po is...

    Couldn't find any cheap fares in the sale but count me in. I'm sure a deal will come up between now and then.

    50% more status credits - offer valid for bookings made in next 7 days

    Just got this offer on Thursday. Fortuitously, I was just about to book my flights for a conference in London, and meetings in Glasgow. Registered for the promo then booked SYD-SIN-DXB-LHR, LGW-GLA-DXB-MEL-SYD all in J for 680 SC plus 50% (LGW-GLA is BA so doesn't count towards the bonus)...

    Surprised by Emirates Earn Rate

    I just priced flights for an upcoming trip SYD-DXB-LHR-GLA-DXB-LHR flying on QF metal and QF codeshares (LHR-GLA is BA) in J earns 65k points and 630 SC. The same itinerary with the DXB-LHR, GLA-DXB segments on EK earns 56k points and 420 SC, so it would seem you earn less points and no SC on EK...

    QF Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    Re: QF Upgrade Success Rate I am prepared to be corrected but I believe it is a combination of status, booking class of the original fare and the order in which requests are received. My understanding is flex fare beats saver, WP beats SG then the order in which the request is lodged comes...

    QF Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    Re: QF Upgrade Success Rate 0 from 2 upgrade requests on QF1 & QF2 recently made six weeks out. There wasn't a spare seat to be had in the premium cabins and Y was at least 98% full both ways. The best I could do was being offered an exit row seat from DXB-LHR. Couldn't even purchase one on...

    KUL SIN lounge crawl 7 June 2015

    Slumming it on Jetstar 3K664 which should have got me into SIN at 12.30pm. Flight has been pushed back at this stage to leave KUL at 3.05pm due to "engineering issues". Not happy Jan. Fortunately I have access to the Plaza Premium Lounge so I have somewhere to camp for the next 4 hours. See you...

    KUL SIN lounge crawl 7 June 2015

    I landed late last night and am staying at DT. I'm up for dinner either tonight or tomorrow or both. I was thinking of Mei Keng Fatt in Ampang or Fatty Crabs for Singapore chilli crab one night but happy to go with the flow. I am on a local mobile no 017 396 8340 if anyone wants to coordinate...
