NZTD is required for everyone including NZers. It's the arrival form rather than visa.

As usual no P1 email received.

That's harsh. I'm sure there will be a sign put up "new lounge coming soon" which surely counts as starting the work.

I'll retain platinum for the next member year by virtue of obtaining lifetime platinum last year. If qff are nice maybe they'll keep me at P1 for one more year but not counting on it.

Seatmap. Unallocated doesn't necessarily mean available for sale or rebooking.

Still 2 unallocated J seats on qf156.

Many years ago I flew NZ akl-lax-lhr-hkg-akl with side trip to Belfast in under 60 hours. Not antipodal points but further distance. https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/trip-reports/692401-around-world-under-60-hours.html

Bus gate is very common at syd early am, especially flights to and from nz. Syd intl I've had more flights to or from remote stand than to or from a regular gate. Gate 26 socks.

I think I've had maybe 2 invites to boring events in a different city (and expected to get my own flights + accomm to attend).

Interesting thread. I haven't seen any mention of the NZ program, for which status is heavily revenue based (and also has the problem for us of a captive market/limited real competition especially domestic). NZ isn't a pure revenue status model but a lot closer than QF is currently.

Boarding pass not needed at mel intl transfer.

Gin again for NZ p1s.

No email for me.

My routing is even more roundabout than that.

Flights booked. Arr 7th qf3 Dep 9th qf156

That rules out AKL for another decade.

Lesotho is an independent country 😉

Sorry I missed this. Looks like you all had a great time. I had fun running the CHC port hills. https://www.craterrimtrailrun.com/bellbird-buster-30km.html and https://www.parkrun.co.nz/halswellquarry/

The reno was announced years before the JFK flight routing via AKL being announced.

Switches to 737 later in the year (October?). Can't come soon enough (the e190 has no ife, limited bin space, lesser food and beverage).
