    NZ Fares to the US 60% Difference than Oz

    Hmm, yeah, I don't think it would be worth the risk. Another thing with this, is that it is probably worth the stop in Auckland. (stay in a hotel for a night and relax)

    I'm very sorry, I really didn't mean it like that. My apologies to anyone offended, and please understand that I meant no offence by my post.

    Neither do most gps units, ipod nano, iPod shuffle, iPod classic, Or a phone/device in flight mode. New cameras have wifi and/or Bluetooth.

    PED's on/off during various flight stages - Why?

    Re: Approaches for dealing with 'electronic devices off' There is a 3rd option. I (as a responsible person) can do it. If it disturbs anyone, I am more than happy to stop if asked/advised to by the FA. I will always comply to an FA's instruction, even a fellow passenger if what I am doing is...

    PED's on/off during various flight stages - Why?

    Re: Approaches for dealing with 'electronic devices off' This thread has been about what it means when the FA/FO/Cap'n says to put it in flight mode and turn it off. This is obviously so that if you turn it on (to use it in-flight), then it will not start communicating/using its communication...

    NZ Fares to the US 60% Difference than Oz

    hmm, can you request them not to check it all the way through to Auckland at LAX? I'm trying to figure out if this is feasible, my current flights are CBR-SYD-LAX and then LAX-MEL-CBR. Alternative would be: CBR-SYD-AKL (1 night in a hotel), then AKL-SYD-LAX and then LAX-MEL-AKL (don't get on...

    NZ Fares to the US 60% Difference than Oz

    OMG, my mind was just blown yet again. So even if you fly CBR-SYD-AKL and AKL-SYD-CBR each way a day on either side, and you stay in a 5 Star hotel, it'd still workout cheaper to goto USA through Qantas NZ. Also you'd get lots of time in the First and Business Lounges (cos your flight is in...

    NZ Fares to the US 60% Difference than Oz

    Could you do AKL-SYD-LAX return, but "fail to board" your flight to AKL (from SYD)? It'd prob still be cheaper lawl

    Access to Lounge flying Air Pacific

    Yeah, though being an associated lounge, can you get in there with a QP membership and a QF ticketed AP flight (with a QF flight number)

    Access to Lounge flying Air Pacific

    One thing that is odd though, if you have a look at the "Lounge Locations" on the Qantas Club part of QF's website, it has Nadi International (Tabua Lounge) listed there.

    Q Bag Tag - do you Carry on?

    lol last time I used a Q Bag Tag (which is most of the time), my bag went to Darwin instead of Perth (from Syd). I was recommended for connections to use paper tags. I will be using the Service desk from now on if I have connections, (usually CBR-SYD-PER) or reverse. If I'm going CBR-SYD or...

    [50%] Bonus SC [MEL/SYD/BNE/CBR] to/from Perth

    Intredasting! I've never had skybeds on an A332, I'm flying on QF 583 SYD-PER in December and my mum/auntie is flying PER-SYD on QF580 (also in Dec), so lets see how we go. My return flight is nice though, got changed from the A333 to a B744. Love flying domestically on a B744.

    [50%] Bonus SC [MEL/SYD/BNE/CBR] to/from Perth

    Are you saying that there is an A332 with Skybeds? I thought they all had the standard recliner and it was the A333 and B744 that had skybed.

    [50%] Bonus SC [MEL/SYD/BNE/CBR] to/from Perth

    I'm starting to get really annoyed with these promos, I am never part of them (other than a Double SCs last year), and would like to be, (cos I fly to Perth often, even planning a trip in Aug) :( Any way to see if the offer applies to me, just the email hasn't arrived yet? :P

    Multiple Mel-Syd-Mel in a day - status earn?

    I don't see why not, but a JASA MEL-SYD would only give you 40 SCs each way, he's got a long way to go lol

    Qantas pulls daily A380 from SYD LAX SYD QF 11 and QF 12.

    Do you mean if you purchase J, but you are on a 4-class 744 and are on the lower deck in the F Cabin?

    Qantas pulls daily A380 from SYD LAX SYD QF 11 and QF 12.

    There is a newly fitted 747 F? I thought they were refitting them all to be 3-Class (J/Y+/Y). Where J is on the lower deck. I would be infuriated if I paid or spent points for F Suites and they were changed to J seats on a 744. I've never been in F on the 747, but I enjoyed thoroughly my time...
