Last month when checking in at the VA curbside lounge entrance, I told the Angel, I was Xam flight to MEL, got a fright when told she could not find my booking, then realized I was going to BNE.

Spent over 7 hours in the SCL AA lounge in Dec 12 from 6am-1:30pm. A couple of photos attached. Overall comfy, lots of room, 2 shower rooms, free fast wifi. Food ok, nothing special, don't expect QF Int standards, but you won't go hungry. Ironically AA lounge is used by Air Canada, who I was...

I find overhead bin space less if an issue on the 767 compared to 737s.

For the past few months I have not been able to access any bookings via the manage my booking function. Have tried both my velocity# and PNR but always get an error message. The oh thing that works is online checkin. That is when I can finally select my seats. VA do many things well, like...

Yes yes yes, evening departure, no or less traffic into mascot, airport very quiet, no queues through immigration or security, express pass bit needed (save for a rainy day), and lounge very peaceful.

Re: "Qantas was plum for us" Looking in the positive, glass half full! But now, likely CX, SQ, BA, maybe even MH will direct or inadvertently destroy QF ops into Asia. Oh that's glass half empty view, oops.

I my early days on the road, I used to always bring done BYO, particularly on more adventurous journeys. Lately gave not bothered. May think twice the next time I pack.

SIN of all cities is made for a quick transit visit be it 2,4... or 8 hours. Transport is very very cheap (train) to cheap (taxi). Food is great value and yummy. Be adventurous, just make your way into town have a walk around and explore!

Have also noticed huge bank up of cars from M5 exit to International even at 6am on a weekday. Agree retiming if Asian flights to morning must have an impact to lounge breakfast traffic.

Got the same INVLD message on my BP on 21 June. I checked in online snd printed BP. At airport I noticed the error message so reprinted BP at kiosk, this time no INVLD message but no Gold status either. Went to lounge, agent reprinted and gold showed. He mentioned he had seen this error a...

I think that's a brave assumption to make. You would hope full service airlines would do there best to help but not necessarily expect in this day and age. LCC you should not expect more than what the T&Cs say. Good to hear Esilef you are on the mend. Thank you for sharing your positive...

With Expedia charging no booking fee. Though they do seem to pass on the airlines credit card fee in their total price. Why oh why do people book with Webjet!

Does SYD-MEL being a slight westerly direction lengthen the flying time. I know the opposite MEL- SYD flying time is usually only 60 mins sometimes as low as 55min.

My thinking/hope is as an affiliate they are part of the Oneworld network, just as Qantaslink and Dragonair are. They should be then eligible for all Oneworld products. My main interests lies in how long left for us USDM Star Alliance award bookings..

Have absolutely no issues with shorts, particularly in a hot climate city such as SIN. I was in the QF SIN lounge last week, arrived in shorts as I came from a day walking around the city - it's 35' aka Hot. Left the lounge in jeans, as I get cold on planes. While I do think there is such a...

As others have stated, 1 PNR then baggage should be checked through. Hope it's Ok to use this thread to ask another QF baggage interline question. I have the following booked as 2 separate tickets/PNRs: 1. SYD-MEL-KUL on QF/EK codeshare 2. KUL-HKT(MH)-USM(PG). Ticketed by MH I know QF will...

Here are a few photos from my SAA flight EZE-JNB in Jan this year. Nice enjoyable flight, met expectations but not outstanding, no wow factor. Wines were good served in proper sized glasses.

I've stayed at Hilton Sentral and Traders Hotel. Both fantastic. Hilton right next to Sentral train station. Traders near KLCC and Petronas. Also enjoyed Sheraton which has a monorail stop nearby, but prefer the other 2.

Woohoo for the Vueve! and coughtails. Early reports were Australian sparkling was on offer (not necessarily a bad thing), and off to the Emirates lounge if you need a fix of Champagne

On a recent *A award itinerary: 7 hr transit in SCL, arrived 6am on redeye from BOG. Relaxed in the AA lounge then towards noon all of a Auden lounge filled with Aussies galore on the QF flight, then no so relaxing... 8-9 hr in JNB, arrived 7am from EZE, then connecting to HKG flight. Free...
