Nice one. Can't see the attachment, will you be fixing that?

Agree with @MEL_Traveller 's points ... although they may have meant hung up rather than help up? While the occasional miracle happens and is posted about on AFF, overall your chances of getting upgraded to LAX as a bronze are extremely slim and you should fully expect to fly in the cabin you...

I can count on one hand ever seeing VA or QF measure bags at the gate using that metal thingy to enforce the dimensions. imo if your bag fits into the overhead bin, and you don't try to take the proverbial by bringing another big bag, you'll probably get away with it - and if you don't, accept...

Noticed this a few weeks ago too - was going to also post in the IT bugs thread but haven't

I did a lot of J flights recently and found lots of industry fares, who were always served last. They’d get the tray, drinks and bread at the same time as revenue pax but would only be offered the choices (and there usually were ample choices left) at the end.

Nice you were able to negotiate strongly for your outcome. Hopefully the pendulum is swinging from car dealers back towards buyers now.

During my run a couple of weeks ago I landed in AKL around 23:30 and was told transit had already closed, around 23:00. I had to clear immigration and customs and go landside (and couldn’t go back airside - immigration wouldn’t let me through either the e-gates or manual processing because my...

Congratulations on your achievement - you’re a fantastic contributor to AFF, you’re always so helpful and generous with your advice.

Hope someone eligible takes advantage of this generous offer! These passes are pretty special - I had to carefully plan and schedule giving mine away to some peeps off on their honeymoon, at the expense of other worthy causes :)

Curious what your plans are for the overnights in MEL and AKL. I ended up staying at the Ibis hotels in MEL, and had to go landside in AKL because it was too long before the flight back. During my status runs I didn’t get a single widebody, nor did I visit the SYD FLounge - really wanted to but...

I stayed at both Ibis Budget and Styles (in that order) recently. I'm a very deep sleeper and I did sleep there from 9pm-6am but I didn't pick up any noise. Styles was way way nicer, worth the slight premium.

I haven't tried the SYD version, did you rate it? I'd be happy for at least the MEL version to be a permanent fixture, there's only so many eggs benedict and corn fritters I can eat.

I had the congee in MEL and although it didn't look like much, I really enjoyed it - enough to get a second helping. I was going to have the dumplings again in MEL but on a follow-up visit was told it had already been taken off the menu!

I’d say you’ve won this thread.

Last week at the QF Melbourne service desk, I was able to get them to print out boarding passes for my flights from the Gold Coast to Bali, which were on a separate booking. So I believe they have the ability to do it - they’ll probably need the passport. (I think the lounge agents have less...

Yes that trip is definitely done for.

Why not? Or... a totally irrational lust for the white card, and to be able to post in this thread. Definitely not worth it, especially after all the experiences on this thread (and I've read it in its entirely at least twice). I don't want to think about all the things I could have otherwise...

They clearly KWYA. 16 flights in the last week through ports with CLs and not a single invite.

Flew four sectors in J today. All those plus the TSCs have already posted. Surprisingly quick.
