Well the magic date of the 6th has come and gone, and no change. Have the JASA from SYD to BNE return which will net me 80 of the required 180 SC's With the good chance of 60 extra SC's whilst in the US due to needing to reposition for a booked flight... the remaining 40 SC's should be...

420 of the 1020 confirmed SC's are from YUP's... If I could squeeze in more YUP's I would, but timing and everything else prevents that... saying that, I may be able to do a LAX-SFO in A or P class which is 60 SC's however that is up in the air till close to the 25th (I should add, every YUP...

After earning over 2,500SC's last year it looks like I will end this year 180pts short of the requal target. Status reassessment is 31 JAN 2011 From what I understand, if I was to be comped status that normally happens 90 days out, so with no changes to the date in my profile it looks like...

F class (full fare 1st class) fare allows changes at no cost, maybe it would be safer to lock in the later flight and play my cards in the event 107 gets in on time or early, and everything else runs smoothly.

I am booked on QF107 arriving into LAX at 6.15am next month. I want to do my usual MR to SEA via SFO. I would normally catch the 9.55am LAX-SFO then onto AS to SEA arriving at 3.10pm I am thinking of trying to push things and catch the 7.40am LAX-SFO. Looked on the QF website and AA...

Found a pic of the Turkey offering from Christmas Day 2009 It was FANTASTIC!!!

Last 2 visits to the First Lounge on Christmas Day have resulted in a very nice offering of Turkey, Cranberries and assorted veg. For that matter, I have never left the First Lounge hungry... Here are some pics of the menu from 2 weeks ago when there waiting for QF11 to LAX

As much as I would like to, upgrade requests probably wont be an option as this is the return leg of a US$798 return fare (just returned on QF74 from SFO yesterday). Although stranger things have happened and availed themselves on previous trips The good thing is, 3 of the 4 past years when...

As much as I like the A380 for the aircraft it is, I do prefer the service on the 744 Pacific services. I will personally be happy once the 744 interiors are upgraded and the Skybed MkII is installed so all services have the same hard product.

Just received an email from QF today saying that the QF11 flight I was booked on has now been cancelled on Christmas Day and have been placed on QF107. At first I thought... bugger (had a good seat allocation) however after further investigation find they are using the A380 on that flight...

...oh, and SeatGuru is way off the mark in regards to it's review of these seats, with the exclusion of crossing traffic from aisle to aisle, but that only applies to E & F only

13E/F were considered, however we decided to stick with 24A/B I will put together a TR later with the pro's and con's of these seats. A much better outcome than row 52, and kudos to the cabin crew. Of the past 5-6 trans-pac flights I have done on the A380 in varying travel classes, this...

The gods have been smiling and my upgrade came through for QF11 to LAX tomorrow for myself and the minister of war and finance. Have been given the option of 24A/B or 19A/B (I think they have us in 24 as it stands). I was going to ask for 16J/K at check in as they are blocked, but not...

re: Flight Availability/Loadings & Upgrade Probability Help Desk If memory serves me correct, that is blocked.... not bum on seat... lol thx (note to self - must renew EF)

Re: Seatmap QF11 SYD-LAX 9th September 2010 Not so much an availability question, rather a seat allocation query. QF11 SYD-LAX 09/09/10 We have upgrade requests in and should have an answer after 1.05pm today, however in the event we stay where we booked I am wondering if a particular...

Thanks for that advice, the flight to HKG will be QF127, and if headwinds are not that uncommon then I may just look at some other later flights. I would not mind having a break in a lounge either if there is one to use (both of us are WP's) I guess it would come down to who the flight to...

Thanks, I knew there would be protection with all flights being on the same booking (PNR), I was just assuming customs and immigration would have to be dealt with in HKG

A quick question for those that have travelled these or similar sectors. Am going to book a SYD to Beijing (Capital Apt) however the flights Qantas returns seem very close when transferring IN Honk Kong. Do you not need to clear customs/immigration in Honk Kong? Looking at QF127 which...

Also, make sure you power on (turn on laptop) unplugged. That is the easiest way to trip the power as some laptops can be very power hungry at startup. Once the machine is running, plug it in and as per previous suggestions try reducing the brightness or set it to power saver mode in the...

Sorry for digging up an old thread. What time do the award seats become available online, i.e. I am wanting to book some award seats on the 26th of December, which is now showing as an available selection in the booking engine. However I checked just after midnight this morning, and have...
