Also, Penfolds Bin 8 was the P1 red at the QF lounge a couple of weeks ago.

Depends a lot on how you value your time, but there are few more pleasant ways to get from LHR to MEL than the first option.

It's the logical conclusion of your insistent babble to the effect of "That person hasn't spent enough to legitimately earn xx_ status".

I hope you'll take your fair share of the credit if and when QF move to a revenue-based earning system.

Based on hard figures for another of our partners: So around $11,000 at medhead's valuation of points (which strikes me as a little on the high side, if anything). That particular case was clearly a "shortcut". Whether that was inherently evil or not is a separate issue.

I don't have a problem with it either way. It basically required me to make a slight adjustment to the range of options we consider, nothing more. But thank you for demonstrating my point about overly emotive nonsense. I shall flitter off now.

I find a lot of the emotion over this issue utterly nonsensical, including the suggestion that a major corporate entity should be bothered by "gloating" and the idea that it's somehow morally indefensible to hop on a plane to Hobart and fly straight back but fine if you stay there for a...

It's almost like you're all (most of the most recent posters) confused by the fact that a "tip" in the US hospitality industry means something different to a "tip" in Australia. Please just stop eating in the US if you can't get your head around it rather than try to pass it off as some human...

Obviously. Which is why I don't buy what they've been "replaced" with. MASAs were too cheap and the current ASAs are way too expensive. I just thought there might be some sensible middle ground.

Very possibly. But it didn't need to be if they priced it "right".

Quite happy to take 8,400 points for the Coriole Shiraz Collection today.

Re: I've felt the sting of the QFF Loyalty Middle Finger Or a comfort seat.

Re: I've felt the sting of the QFF Loyalty Middle Finger Which they use for 20 sectors a year at most unless they alter their behaviour as a result of attaining status. I don't think it's me that's missing the point.

And EK on the 777 to SIN.
