    How do you clean your glassware ?

    I saw someone said beads from Riedel already. I have the similar thing but called 'Magic Balls' and they work well for decanters and also vases. Dishwasher (Westinghouse) for all my glassware which is mostly Riedel Vinum and they come up a treat. On past overseas placements and not having...

    Brisbane KrisFlyer Lounge

    I think some serious construction on other floors might be required before any of that is ready, but who knows! The Qantas lounge needs expansion before Singapore I believe, many Sunday mornings you can't get a seat in there. But a Plaza lounge might mean the Airlines who do a deal with Qantas...

    Brisbane KrisFlyer Lounge

    There doesn't appear to be any news release on the SIA website about a lounge upgrade? The Perth lounge took approx 3 weeks to upgrade so could be about the same in BNE, hopefully it gets made larger......

    PER Temporary Lounge Closure - Feb/Mar 2016

    I fly from BNE monthly so am used to that lounge and the factilities, I might fly from Perth once a year to Singapore. I seem to recall the Perth lounge had no shower which give BNE a big plus IMO. BNE is usually crowded these days though..... The cognac served in BNE is not of a high enough...

    PER Temporary Lounge Closure - Feb/Mar 2016

    I meant to update this thread the other day, I was there on Friday night and was given the voucher pack. The voucher pack was $35 in $5 vouchers for use in most of the food and beverage outlets in the terminal. I used mine at the café in front of the SQ lounge.

    Y > J Upgrade Questions

    You can upgrade individual legs, the system will show you what type of upgrades are available when you attempt to upgrade. A route like Singapore to Haneda could have many business travellers so may not have any saver upgrades at peak times.

    A short Premium Economy Review

    Peter, Did you think both meals in the one flight were specific to PE? In the past I have flown BA, Cathay and Air France PE and normally one course is always the standard economy meal. Drink service is always the same choice as well. Rare

    No idea for Aquire but should end up the same if they apply the current logic?

    Status Requalification - Time Zones

    I had this happen in Jan last year from a flight I took on the last day of my year. They will credit the SC's into the year ended even though the date of transaction in the activity summary will be a few days later. There will be a little symbol showing they don't count in the new year of earning.

    PER Temporary Lounge Closure - Feb/Mar 2016

    I might be travelling out of Perth during the renovation, I see that SQ will give a voucher to passengers. Any ideas from a local in Perth where that voucher may be for?

    Slow posting of BA flights?

    I had some recent ones take about 1 to 1.5 weeks for flights in early December. Could be any number of reasons why. As long as you get them is the main thing!

    No Y seats available to select SQ237 10th Jan.. Upgrade?

    SIA generally don't give out upgrades as they are offering a premium service and it could 'cheapen' that image. Only time I have been boosted into their J class is via points upgrade. If you have a VA gold card you should stand a good chance, make sure you check in at the business counter and...

    No Y seats available to select SQ237 10th Jan.. Upgrade?

    For the 1st question - as the other answers, you can't choose a seat until closer to check in. your KF status will determine the time window. About an upgrade at the airport - no chance! SIA never do that. It won't be overbooked. For the 2nd question - only really possible to get a premium seat...

    SIA A330 nose gear retraction/collapse at SIN

    Try Millions in damages not to mention lost time in service, lost gate revenue whilst plane moved, etc, etc. A fuel pump for an A320 costs about £350K to give you some idea of potential scale.

    What does 'upgradeable' mean?

    I don't think they will offer upgrades to PE any time soon - that could put them at risk of having existing J customers spend down to travel in Y and then upgrade to PE. There are also limited seats for what should be an in demand product. If you have the miles available, upgrade direct to...

    What does 'upgradeable' mean?

    Different segments of your flight might be fully flexible and could be upgraded, normally the first segment booked determines the overall fare class. You could call the Krisflyer service centre and ask them if any portions could be upgraded but if they do it they will try to charge the full rate...

    What does 'upgradeable' mean?

    Upgradeable means you can use points to sit in the bigger seat - if one is available.
