And the onward QF2 flight to SYD is delayed 4.5 hours as a result with estimated departure at 2200 at present.

Wow, this is disgusting. :shock: Twice in the last six months I've requested sheets to be changed using the cards on the beds and not had them changed but at least I knew I'd slept in the them the night before. Maybe this is a way of solving the water crisis. Lots of caring and sharing.

Re: using points for a round the world trip And it's restricted to a total of 16 segments including land segments so that it can be issued as an ETicket.

I've had a quick look and RJ180 seems to be a 1 stop flight via BKK but isn't scheduled after 25th October 2008. The flights to HKG are a new routing for RJ with the first flight commencing on 22 January 2008 on Tuesdays, Thursday's and Saturday's on newly refurbished A310's. It may be...

Hi Cynicor. Unfortunately the Platinum Challenge won't be possible as travel is required on an AA flight number for 10,000 miles. The routing also appears to have too many South American sector and SCL-USH (IIRC) is a two sector flight via PUQ. USH-LIM is then a three sector flight which maxes...

Hmm, sounds like a great adventure trip wrldtrvllr. Forfeiting the return leg of a simple NZ return ticket won't cause any dramas. You flight will simply leave without you so no need to worry about that one affecting any of your onward flights with Oneworld etc. As for the rest, I guess it...

I do think we need a change but I'm not sure if I agree with the levels suggested. I'm not a fan of rating the posts either. Every member of this forum contributes in their own unique and special way. This can be in the form of useful FF advice, airfare knowledge, class of service information...

Congrats Tooner! :D Maybe NM can give you lessons on driving a b*s. :mrgreen:

Telstra's Next G network certainly roamed onto the GSM networks in the US and Canada when "3G" reception wasn't available. eg. New York. I didn't change the sim cards though.

Congrats mick. I did hear some radio advertising on both the Fox FM and Nova radio networks (B105 and Nova 106.9 Brisbane) and also saw a couple of ads in the newspaper. But they were all after this thread on AFF so I was probably more aware what they meant. I don't think I would have done very...

Congrats thegurio, good to see you'll be flying QF. ;) If you have a look, QF isn't always that much more than DJ. We've been looking at a boys weekend in Melbourne for some footy and QF is cheaper than DJ for the Sunday night return trip. So the moral, always check- just in case...

Hi libbo72, Welcome to AFF. If you PM me your details, I'd be happy to give you my Member For A Day certificate. I'll have a chat to my Dad at some stage and see if he's happy to pass on his as well. Basically the certificate entitles you to 1 night's accomodation at the Advantage Plus...

Does the ticket need to be used in the same name as the original booking or can it be assigned to someone else who is going to fly?

Maybe try giving them a ring or booking an appointment. I was asked no questions on entry either like Mal but it might better to be safe than sorry. It's your option at the end of the day. :p

Hi wrldtrvllr, Welcome to AFF! (and thnks fr th mmrs :D ) Unfortunately not, travel on the Oneworld Explorer is only permitted on Oneworld Airlines and their affiliates. Unfortunately there is no OW way of getting in and out of PPT that meet the xONEx rules as there is no way to get back to...

Hey Steve, I can't answer you question directly but I would suggest you contact the Thai consulate for an official ruling. There are Thai consulate's in most capital cities. This website has the contact details for all consulate's. Thailand Details Even though Australian's don't need a...

Thanks Arthur, I'm looking at UA but I'm leaning towards Miles and More for the better topup from AMEX to SPG to FF program if I need it. I have my eyes on a *A award to Bora Bora and spending a week in an over-water bure but that's another story. :p That's not quite the thing I wanted to hear...

As trooper mentioned, it was a mistake fare that one of the readers on Flyertalk posted about. You can follow the thread (though extremely long) here: EWR-YYZ-SCL-EZE-MEX OW in C class at $673 ?? on AC - FlyerTalk Forums. An example of a current one is: good (but not great) J class fare...
