    TV series discussion {'ware Spoiler Alert}

    The Teen squealed through much of the latest Dr Who episode, Rogue. And now I can't get it out of my head. ;)

    Long pants/lower leg coverings on flights?

    I don't want to be washing Mr Katie's cycling kit while travelling! :P Though his tour operators have for his cycling tours to France and Blegium. I wonder if the padded knick would provide more comfort on certain airline/train/bus seats?! 🤔

    PJs before or after meal?

    PJs on until after the seat belt sign goes off up in the air. Shoes come off then, and airline socks over mine. I have been throwing out the socks at the end of the flight, but after giving away ~20 pairs (accrued before I started throwing them away) to a someone local who was going to use them...

    Booking a return ticket for a child (under 6) with different parent - is this possible?

    I flew as a UM at that age, though not international flights.

    Japan for family skiing holiday January 2025 - questions

    In 2018, we had a family room with two bunks (or maybe even 3 extra beds, with bunks and another single??), certainly more accommodating for a family than most Tokyo hotels.

    Japan for family skiing holiday January 2025 - questions

    Also recommend Hilton Tokyo Bay or any of the hotels nearby for a day at Tokyo Disneyland. Also, if the kids have been to any other Disneyland, Tokyo Disney Sea is a more interesting park if you only have 1 day, unique theming unlike any other Disney park. We did just Disney Sea on our first...

    Gold for me. Unsure about Mr Katie, will depend on events.

    USA Entry - CBP Mobile Passport control app [MPC]

    No, and the ESTA doesn't need to as it covers eligibility to enter in general. WB/WT is specific to each entry into the country. The WB/WT thing was in the past established by the immigration agent you would speak to. They would circle - or actually maybe they wrote (don't have my passport at...

    VISA Waiver Program to USA

    Replying here as well, I selected WB for my recent conference in the US. Looking back on the stamps in my passport (none from this year's trips!), the immigration agent circled WB for my conference entries and WT for my Disneyland entries. :P

    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    Yes, he had HBA-MEL-BNE-NOU and return booked in J, with positioning flights to HBA. International and the extra flight length SCs was part of the reason I was thinking of HKG. I guess SIN is the same SCs as HKG by the look of it.

    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    Mr Katie has a status run HBA-xx-NOU and return booked for next month (in J, booked during DSC offer). I'm thinking it'll be a good idea to amend that booking to another routing. The trick is he's looking for around 550 SCs to maintain WP. (Yes, I know, but he wants status on his own, not just...

    Poor FA experience - flying with an 18month old

    A friend experienced similar unfriendly service from a UA FA on a flight between the US and EU, in Business. My friend was sitting with her wife and chatting, and this one FA in their cabin kept telling them to be quiet and stop disturbing other passengers. No other FA asked them to be quiet. I...

    Do Australian Border Force officers deliberately provoke passengers?

    Were you not given an Incoming Passenger Card by the airline to complete? Because that's where you would declare anything you needed or wanted to declare, not at the Passport machines. Perhaps the staff were confused by your lack of that card and didn't bother telling you why? I've perhaps...

    USA Entry - CBP Mobile Passport control app [MPC]

    I would think it's just the app itself, the confirmation screen you get after submitting your details. That's all I showed last week - and that was just to get into the line, the CBP officer didn't look at my phone at all.

    QF11 brekky 14/5 Juice, coffee, crumpet and pancakes. Tasty enough, but carby/doughy overall. I should have gotten the fruit salad for some variety rather than the crumpet. I was also trying to not order too much for the tray!

    QF11 Tues 14/5 Aperitivo of almonds with the canned margarita. No Sky Spritz available. Pumpkin soup with creme fraiche. The plant based dining option was the same soup but with croutons. The chicken main option. Tasty. I wasn’t familiar with the dish & was expecting a breadt of chicken. I...
