If I read it right you are only 11 minutes short of the 2 hours you prefer. I would book it if I was you. Terminal 1 is where you get the bigger delays and you need to get the shuttle over to the TGV station, Terminal 2 is fine in my experience.

I'd go to Newton Circus hawker centre. Great food, good atmoshere. There are probably other similar centres closer to Changi that others may recommend.

Sorry, heading should read T1. I think so. Having just experienced it again, my view is reinforced. i don't know when it was built, but it is a great example of fashion over form. Very clever, crisis crossing elevators etc. But it is full of narrow corridors, there is no sensible flow of...

I used my new Miles & Smiles card to get into the Koru Club in NZ earlier this week, having recently fallen down from Gold Air NZ. I even felt a bit guilty flashing a card with which I have earnt 0 points. The guilt left me pretty quickly..... It took a good 3 weeks between asking for the...

I went there for a conference in September last year. Stayed at the Sheraton at Yalong Bay which was a great spot if you want to relax, go to the beach or play golf. Apparently there are a few day trip options to the highlands etc but I did not go on any. Neither did I go into town, but those...

I have been upstairs in J on a QF 380 LAX/MEL, while my wife and 2 kids (11&9) were downstairs in Y. It was a work trip for me, not something we deliberately planned that way. I started in J for a few hours, then we swapped for a few hours and I finished in J. FA's were quite accepting, but I...

All very serious suggestions so far....I'd upgrade one parent to J so that they can share the seat and take turns heading up front for a break.

Yesterday I booked a classic reward flight for my wife on MH in J MEL/CDG return in June. I rang the QF Platinum help line and got the exact dates and flights I was after. The operator was exceptionally helpful and did comment that she was surprised how many J reward tickets QF has access to...

I'm in the same boat. I have received a newsletter by email since I joined but no acknowledgement of my SM request. I fly NZ earlier this week and still had Gold status, but come home to find my Silver card waiting. I looked at the "normal" check in line at CHC with the increasing realisation...

My NZ status is about to downgrade from Gold to Silver. So, I've just joined Miles & Smiles and sent a request to status match my QFF WP thanks to the intel gained here. It would be good to retain access to teh Koru Club on my regaular trips to NZ. I'll report my successs or otherwise.

My brother in law and I booked classic awards using points for J tickets LHR return to go to an Ashes test later this year. Our strategy was; I booked 2 one way tickets outbound the day they became available. I found that CX flights actually showed up on QFF search engine a week or so before...

The most flight choices of the domestic options and the lounge access.

Got credited with economy. No complaints there, that is the ticket I actually bought. Would be nice if QF proactively fixed the missing points once they knew the glitch was there rather than waiting for me to notice, or am I dreaming?

Late last year I flew MEL/PER, booked in economy, then used points to upgrade to J. Checking my activity on line a day or so ago I noticed that the flight was listed, but that 0 points and 0 SC's had been recorded. I rang the QF platinum number to report the problem. It did not take very much...

Around the world, I've become used to simply withdrawing cash from my personal accounts at ATMs rather than taking a cash advance or t/c's like I used to. I then simply settle it all up when I get back. However, my casual attitude nearly caused me big problems in South Africa late last year...

I have not read the entire 14 pages of this thread so please forgive me if this is already covered...... The original post complained about irons and I second that. There is nothing worse than having 1 clean shirt left and the cheap iron puts a whopping great stain on it first thing in the...

I'm another fan of the new CX J seats. Vast improvement on the old style.

My copy was front and back and in colour. Not sure if that made a difference, but it seems sensible to me.

Not totally related, but......I lost my card in China a few weeks ago. Luckily I had a photocopy which allowed me to register at hotels and to get out of the country after referral to an immigration supervisor at PVG. The only other real inconvenience was having to line up in the noraml queue...

I like the Hyatt in TST. Train close, walking distance to Star Ferry.
